Thanks, better today, I hate a cold!

You can order just female chicks from a hatchery. Much cheaper than ordering laying pullets! We've always had very good luck getting what we order. We do usually order some males and some females though, to avoid the "small order fee." We don't usually need 15 baby pullets! The males go in the freezer. Chicken is good eatin'!

Thanks! Which hatchery to use?

True, but not your responsibility. Once they are someone else's roosters, they are their roosters to do with as you like. To me, there is the person fighting the birds who is at fault.

If you knew that is where they were going, but if you give birds in good faith, no need to make them feel guilty about what is already a hard decision.

I am getting rid of two today, if I catch the begger, but I am pretty sure they are going to feed a family and be the rooster. Works for me.

If you do know of a fighting ring, do report it to the police. That would be more effective.

Good thinking Mrs. K.

Thank you.
