Howdy y’all! I’m new to the site, was referred by a friend. I have a flock of 18 birds (12 hens and 6 roosters).

When covid first began and toilet paper and paper towels were hard to come by I decided to get some egg laying chickens. I went to the local tractor supply and told the girl what I wanted (hens) and when I got home I noticed the receipt said straight run,( at the time I didn’t know what that meant). As the chicks got older I realized that I was the proud owner of 6 roosters. Thats my luck! Anyway since then I have gotten 12 hens but the roosters are beating them up pretty good. I am looking to get rid of the roosters if anyone is interested.

Welcome to BYC!
Craigslist is a good way to rid yourself and your hens of unwanted roosters. Your hens will be much happier and healthier (& lay better) if you keep only one or none.

Welcome to BYC!!
I hope you find home for your roosters. If you are allowed to keep roosters, you may want to keep one for protection.

I'd keep you favorite two for protection, and for chicks if you ever wanted to hatch some, and then sell the rest.

What is a good reasonable price to sale roosters? I have three light brahmas and I believe three Americana’s.
