Someone recently dumped 4 roos in a golf course near my home. They've survived through a bad storm and lots of rain. now someone dumped a new rooster there too. so in total, there are 5. One looks to be an easter egger of sorts, ones a mixed breed, and three are small red bantams. they all look to be over 6 months old and are afraid of humans. we have been feeding them and trying to gain their trust. can anyone come to pick them up or does anyone know a good home for them? I added some pictures as well.

The two little red guys look like either Red Leghorns, Red American Games, or B.B.Red Games. One of them looks like a Red Pyle. If you want to catch them, set up a three walled fenced in small yard with treats like bread in the middle for coaching. Then, in Border Collie like fashion, lead them into your trap. If you setted up a small gate, you might be able to catch all in one shot, or you can go after one at a time. If your trap's walls isn't high enough, they may and possibly will, climb the walls and escape. The reds most likely will attempt to do that, so be fast, and ready to grab. Also, be very patient with them. If you want to catch them easier, get there before dusk and locate them. Follow them to their roost, take note, and come back when they're sleeping. Bring a tall ladder because they'll be high (possibly 30-50 or more feet up). Go after the reds first. You go after the EE first and you'll wake up the reds causing the reds to be hard to catch again. I wouldn't be too concerned of a predator getting the reds, so working with several nights might help.

Have you tried Craigslist on finding a home for them? If not, here's an article that might be able to help you post on there: https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/how-to-post-on-craigslist.76257/
