Know that animal control in Springfield, MA picks up chickens from various situations (cockfighting rings, zoning violations, etc.) on regular basis and some are rehomed at farms. Mostly only hens. Roosters don't usually have best odds of making out of the AC facility. Get tested (for AI, I'm guessing). I've seen pics of a few that were seized from a zoning violation call. Gorgeous partridge silkie roo and then some other pullets of breed I could not identify. Owner claimed it was $2,000 worth of poulrty (BS), but prob some kind of pure breds. I can find out more if there are people interested in adopting rescue hens. And Petfinder does post them too for local rescues.

. I wouldn't mind helping out with a couple roo have been looking for rir and bo. Anyway but where would the info be listed.

Look for birds, not under barnyard.
(I always look under barnyard and get mixed up for a minute)

I saw a load of leghorns are up for adoption in NY, and there are some pretty Roos (I had inquired about the BR named Punky B Rooster before CaCO3 gifted me the best rooster in the world )

Anyone in CT interested in a Dominique rooster abit over 4 months he came from Duane Urch. I have no room for cause I'm focused on my Red Naked Necks and Black Australorps. If not, he will make a good dinner in about a month. He has a great body proportions and feathering for his age.

Anybody near eastford and know the chicken ordinances there... how much land you need to own chickens? Sounds like an ag friendly community! check out this fair flier...http://www.townofeastford.org/index...nt&view=category&layout=blog&id=59&Itemid=113

I am close to Eastford...just one town over.
This area is ag friendly. We are in the Quiet Corner of Connecticut and part of the Last Green Valley.
