From egg to chick!

I cant toss mine put the nest yet. Eldest is only turning 12

My oldest is 22, about to graduate college, has a job waiting for her, but is still a human boomerang

True. But I would totally ugly cry giving my boys up. I need to have a bigger area. Preferably one I own. Then they can have their own free range yard and fulfill their bachelor life dreams.

Oh I totally get that, it's hard .

Sounds like you'll need a BIG bachelor pen!

Ssshhhhh. All the eggs will be pullets.

If you are interested let me know and I will throw you a tag in it as well.

Yes please.
BTW, I was shocked you doubted my good intentions. For human boys I certainly do recommend option 3 !
Fyi: My son was set free at the age of 20.

I also prefer consuming meat that came from birds that had good lives,

Yes, I just try to take it one step further. I prefer to consume barely any meat.

Hadn’t thought of option 4. A bachelor coop out of sight of the girls.

The smaller cockerels currently just hop back over the fence. Snape (the australorp cock (literally bc he acts like a donkey)) is too big to hop over. Rude little devils.

I might have to give them up for eating bc I can't find a home for them otherwise. They keep ganging up on the hens that are lower in the pecking order.

I could toss them in my backyard again with Snape and Hook (neighbors roo). They are little trouble makers. Kithara is my only roo I want in the front. He is gorgeous. He's also a barnyard mix so no idea what he is.

 

[ElfenLied89]

I mean. Other than a cockerel.

This is Kithara

(Who named him again? I forget)

He’s a handsome boy

I think the idea was either from @TwoCrows or @tlcmurphy . Kithara means guitar in Greek, so I think it was their egg, their idea (based on the fact that I had Dolly Parton, and tlcmurphy had Jolene, so we needed a guitar to complete the set), and I just switched up the languages

He's got such a pretty tail!
