You should definitely print those posters soon before you get more attached to that pretty boy!

Yep, I can't print them fast enough, if you know what I mean.

Dh say that him and the others will have to go. He doesn't want any more roos....not even my pretty boy, Napoleon.

What a looker! Too bad my neighbors wouldn't approve.

No roos at all?
Sounds like my DH.
I think a roo is beneficial, personally....

I'm fighting to keep my oldest roo Napoleon, b/c I've raised him since he was a day old and he came w/ my orginal older flock.

I think a roo is beneficial also. Even though I separate Napoleon from the girls he still gives them warning signs to keep the girls on their toe while free ranging.

I would like to keep the Ameraucana (black) one also that I hatched this spring.

I don't know, we shall see.

Unless someone in the family makes a roo 'diappear', it's your job to thin the flock, right?
Think it over until the August sale. Take them all to the sale. Whoever isn't bought comes home with you for the winter

The hard part is finding a roo that takes good care of the girls by protecting them, without the damage from over-breeding them, and that does well with the human members of the flock, too.

I'm praying my welsummer roo is one of those perfect roos!

Why are you all so far away? I'd take that handsome little man in the blink of an eye.

My leghorn roo was the perfect gentleman, but the neighbors suck. One specific neighbor that is. The passive-aggressive type. Bah.

Thanks you guys! He is a looker.

I may have found him a home in Mo. on a farm. I still have to check out the situation and make sure they aren't expecting dinner.

I think they will also take Mr. Kazoo the Big BO I hatched this spring. He's just a little older than the EE cockerel.

I think I've talked dh into letting us keep Napoleon and definitely keeping the little black pure breed Ameraucana, but will be housed separately from Napoleon and the laying flock.

Whew! I have lots to do to get these chickens organized!!!!

Hooray! Glad you found a possible home. Checked it out yet?
