I live on small urban lot and purchased 3 Buff Orphington "hens". Turns out one is a cockerel (small-ish, no feathers to speak of at 2 weeks, protective, much more aggressive with me and other birds...)
I purchased for pets & egg-laying only. What are my options in finding home for "Killer"? Local feed store says wait to be sure but cocks don't crow for 5-7 months, right?
Also will purchasing a single, week-old chick be accepted by other 3 now? Too late?
Thanks for any help with ideas.
