Is there a market for Swedish Flower Hen roosters?

[kimberliegbisho]

Hi there! I am dying to put some Swedish Flower hen hatching eggs under my bantam EE hen who goes broody ALL the time. The only problem is that we live in a suburb of Seattle and there are no roosters allowed, no exceptions. Would there be a market for roosters? The hatching eggs I have found are quite spendy and it would be great if we could find a home for any potential boys that is not the soup pot!

One could hope, but some market research is in order.
Might be more keepers in your area that are trying to get rid of males,
than ones who want to buy a spendy, if special, one.

Willing to bet if you can't have roos then you aint the only local trying to get rid of them

Don't think a lot of the cities around Seattle allow for roosters. Most "rehoming" programs around the area are basically the equivalent of sending males off to a BBQ.
