[clucking chicken]

I have to get rid of my 2 speckled sussex roos (well i think they are) because i already have a roo and dont want them to fight. I really extremely would hate to kill them . They are really lovely I am trying to sell them for free but noone wants them Im in fermanagh In N.ireland

Plus could u give me ur say on roo or pullet please I think they r 4 months

Roosters don't always fight. A lot of times they will get a pecking order sorted out and they get along fine.

I don't know how oldthey are but they look like pullets.

How old arre they ? Have they Crowed? Are they aggressive towards the other rooster?

They both look a lot like my 15 week old Speckled Sussex pullet. Are you really sure that they are roosters? I used to think that Sissy was a roo also because of her size and she has big legs but she's a hen.

Maybe you should wait just a little longer before giving them away. They may end up being your best layers!

Yes, pullets and hens will bicker, peck/pick, and fight - sometimes worse than roos.

I have 3 Salmon Faverolle roos that are about 16 weeks old-they have stand-offs, but there have been no major instances of fighting. One is going to live in another tractor with mature hens eventually, and as long as they get along and aren't terrorizing the girls, the other two will stay together. I would wait until you are sure-I would think they would start to show aggression before just outright killing each other.
