I’m sure you will be able to find a nice home for them-I think there is even a byc forum for that or you can go on the forum for your state specifically

Bekah also has some saddle feathers I am pretty sure.

I've seen Buy/Sell/Trade, but haven't found the state forum. I could be looking in the wrong place though.

Pointy ones, yes. I’m not game bird expert but point saddle feathers is a rooster thing

I will do what I can to find Arty a good home. I really don't want him to be used for fighting.

my guess is that someone with free range chickens (real free-range chickens that sleep in trees) would be happy to have him. I am not sure that with unknown parentage he would be useful for cockfighting but I know nothing about cockfighting lol

Taming them is fine, perching on your shoulder could very easily lead to an eye injury if you're not careful. I did the same with my first batch of chicks and one nearly nailed me when I was cleaning the coop and she was perched on my shoulder. She also developed the bad habit of pecking at my ear.

Yes, I also learned this the hard way and had to make a trip to immediate care to get checked out. Thankfully my eye was fine, but them perching on my shoulder suddenly became very not cute.

He is a full blooded Sweater gamefowl chicken. They both are. They dont mix breeds. They sale the males- fully grown- for $800. The females go up to $1,500. They were hatched for this specific reason. My son is Hispanic and has Mexican relatives. It's a cultural thing.
