By messy do you mean poop or tossing food everywhere?

-poop

I mean re-home to someone who'll utilize it for its intended purpose. CX adults don't have great quality of life, die early, can't handle heat or humidity well and eat huge amounts of feed for very limited egg returns.

Yeah don't worry I ain't keeping him as a pet....

(Also, I'm having terrible problems with a messy brooder!! They just started this. It used to stay clean for at least 2 days. Any suggestions?)

Switch to shavings. The feed is too big so grind it to mash. Raise both the feeder and waterer. Make sure the waterer stays filled and put an overhang on it to discourage flyers. They need shavings and they can't handle the feed.

LOL yeah, that's a dinner chicken! Just about perfect at that size, too.

I’m assuming that’s a rooster, right?
