California-Southern

Thank you very much!
How did you get a roo if you aren't zoned for one? We got 2 accidental cockerels & luckily had a rescue farm friend in another county... but they moved their operation to Nevada☹️ Now we only get auto-sexing breeds or DNA-sexed chicks so we don't get surprises any more. I always wanted to keep a roo but we're only zoned for 5 hens/no roo's.

It was an accidental rooster. We got a few chicks last spring and thought they were all females, but we were wrong.
 
I have an approximately 6 month old cockerel/roo that I need to rehome. He was supposed to be a Blue Copper Marans pullet but started doing the roo call last week. Handsome boy that is quite docile. Any interest? I'm in Westminster, CA.

BTW, he has been in an outdoor run since August 2025. I brought him inside last week.
 
It's hard to rehome roo's in So Calif. I had a rescue friend in Riverside County but they moved out of State. You need to advertise in rural ag areas. Cuz of biosecurity on many farms it's hard to place rehomed adult birds. A Blue Copper Marans is a good breed. I really hope he gets a good home. He should never be someone's dinner meal!
