I need find a new home for my 1-year-old Black Australorp rooster. He's very good at taking care of his hens. He is great at finding them food and protecting them. The only reason I have to rehome him is I need to downsize my flock due to chronic shoulder/feet problems making it difficult for me...
Hi everyone!
I need find a new home for my 1-year-old Black Australorp rooster. He's hand raised and good at taking care of his girls. I won't have enough space or hens for him to keep him happy as I need to downsize my flock due to chronic shoulder/feet problems making it impossible to care...

Now they have starting to feather out ( 5 weeks old on Tuesday) , it might be a better time to ask who's the Daddy , and see if I can be narrowed down a bit more .
