California-Southern

Have to post my newest juvenile Blue Breda. Have to keep her as a house chicken until she's old enough to join the outdoor flock. Love these sweet outgoing friendly docile birds. This is my 4th Breda and I wiil keep getting this breed for their gentleness around other docile breeds and because of their great laying ability. My previous Blue Breda layed for 10+ consecutive months her first cycle and my current Cuckoo Breda lays 6 eggs/weekly 2+oz.
P.S. the yellow feet in the photo are on the silkscreen picture of my shirt, not my bird's feet.

Ooohhh! She's so fancy!! My 5 yr old would LOVE her!
 
There's someone around the Whittier area (I think) that butchers and gives back all the parts, even the head if you want it. I have to ask my friend if she still has his info and if I get a reply, I'll PM/Conversation to you privately.
I'd very much like that info too. We have family in Whittier and would totally make the trip once we find out how many roosters are in our flock. We only want to keep one.

We took our roos to La Quail Farm, in Sun Valley.

I didn't go, but I was told the place doesn't look very pretty, not the cleanest - but this was from a person that is more on the critical side. We dropped off 4 roos, and got back 4 roos - and did NOT want all the extras that they offered to give us. They took the birds and told us to come back in an hour. They were done when they said they would be.

Good luck!

I have texted my friend about the Whittier area butcher and just waiting for a reply from my friend. She's a teacher so I'm patient for replies from her. She had several roos butchered a couple years ago and got all the parts returned - at that time it was $5 per Cornish Game slaughtered so don't know if that price is still current. Some people balk at the price to have chickens dressed but you'd pay that at the supermarket for something that you have no idea how it was fed or treated. Some people balk at eating backyard chicken eggs too but I'd rather eat my own hens' chicken eggs than a carton of supposedly "cage-free" eggs from the supermarket.
 
I have some beautiful roosters that need homes. A frizzled, an Ayam Cemani, some Ayam Cemani crosses. Anyone want one?

@Jessiemom - because we're limited to 5 hens/no roos, I always have to order my pullets as juveniles from breeders. If I hatched eggs I'd have no where to find homes for the boy chicks and my DH won't eat our birds. A breeder shipped us a rare breed beautiful juvenile cockerel in error and DH looked around until he found a good home for him -- he refused to butcher a beautiful cockerel. But you can bet we'll never order from that breeder again!
