I have had chickens for about 25 years. Some I raised from chicks; a few I inherited. My oldest brought home our first rooster about 30 years ago, but we didn't have hens for few years. She found him walking down a busy street in a suburb. She named him Vern, and all our roosters have been named Vern ever since. I have 13 chickens now. Unfortunately, one of my new hens is a rooster who has become aggressive. I have him in a house with two hens for company. This rooster is 5 !/2 months old. I want to place him or donate him to a dinner. He is a beautiful Barred Rock, and I always liked the temperament of Barred Rock hens. He is almost violent when he mounts one of the hens who lives with him. Suggestions for places to donate him will be appreciated.
