I have a 4 month old Barred Rock rooster that needs a good home. He has started to get vocal and the neighbors works the night shift there for needs to sleep during the day. I am trying to keep the peace by re-homing him. Any local takers? Pics upon request.

Planning on posting up in the classified section too, but thought more local peeps would see it here.

This may sound rude, but is he for free? I also have 35 4 months chicks roosters and hens. Where I live you have as many roosters and hens you want. I live North Branford like 15-20 mins from New Haven

Well done. The laws are so inconsistent. Danbury doesn't allow chickens at all and much of it is quite rural. Crazy.

Hey all,
Had my talk tonight called "How to Raise Backyard Chickens" at the Somers Public Library. I think it was a great success!
I mentioned this web site so we might see a lot of new members from Connecticut.
Yeah!

trying to change zoning laws. I was able to raise $15. Now I only have $170 to go! To apply for the zone change

Yes he is for free. Someone has PMed me about him. So I will keep you in mind if this falls through.

I posted him in the classified section, so you can take a look at pics of him. I also threw up a listing on Craigslist, Eastern CT section.

Send me a PM so we dont clutter the thread.

I had 26 people. The talk was an hour long but I finished in 45 minutes and then had questions and answers. It was a lot of fun.
Afterwards I found this great pamphlet form an Agway store on "How to build a chicken coop" I wish I brought it with me because I didn't spend much time on the coop part of the talk. Just the basics.
I handed out reference sheets and mentioned this website for beginners. Some folks already had chickens and wanted to learn more.

Wow, that sounds great! 26 people is a good crowd. Confirms what I've been thinking... that a lot of people are getting interested in keeping chickens. Thanks for sharing.
