Just listed 3 cockerels on CL
Did that a year ago & gave them away. Now we'll see if anyone's willing to give $5/ea. for them...processing or breeding a mixed flock.
Might as well recoup some feed cost if I can

I've sold cockerels and roosters for a fair amount of money on CL.
I sold a Jaerhon cockerel for $25 and a Penedesenca rooster for $35 and they were extras I wasn't going to be breeding. At that price, I knew they weren't buying them for the pot.
I didn't just post a one line ad. I gave a detailed description about the breed and how they were raised. Organic feed, organic pasture, probiotics, etc.. I think that made a huge difference.

I have one cockerel that is freezer bound.

I have at least 20 headed there. Just have to select who gets culled first and then find the time.

I just refuse to give birds away that cost me 20 or 30 to raise. I'll eat each last one of them before I let someone else do that.

I didn't like eating my ducks so old by time I did, duck burgers, grind them, taste just like beef burgers, and plenty of fat to season the grill.
Yummy.

interesting, thank you
