Your boys won't get any sun time outside? Can you describe this "market" your taking them to? Is this like an outdoor flea market or someone specific that buys your roosters for their restaurant?

the boys are lucky I picked up new large coop for them all metal . I will make them a small run so they can catch the sun when they want . they not going a do that ,they are going to stand by the fence looking at the hens and picking the fight with a neighbours . they favorite thing to do . only 6 of them now very calm .trouble maker are going .

Great score to get such a quick setup for the chooks. I just aquired a full size 4x4 pickup with a topper on it so now I can really hunt for free stuff.

Didn't realize you had Olive Eggers. All 3 of mine are cockerels so their on the cull list. Hopefully I'll get a few hens come spring hatch.
That's a real nice and big breeder pen. Good idea switching it over.
