Is anyone able to give this boy a home?
Maple is a Lavendar Ameraucana rooster who was supposed to be a hen… and unfortunately because he’s a rooster, we can’t keep him as we aren’t allowed to have roosters here. (Not to mention we don’t have the capability to care for him if he needed to be separated as he crows away from his hens and would upset my neighbors with that!) He was born May 30th - so he's just coming up to a year old right now and in the throes of Rooberty. I wish I could say he wasn’t aggressive (I’ve heard they calm down around a year) but even though we handled him every day and he can be the sweetest snuggler, he does have his moments and has tried to attack my kiddos (and occasionally adults). So this is a concern with young children especially. In the past I have just picked him up and walked him around and he will calm down – that has worked for me. Maple was rehomed about 2 months ago, but unfortunately it isn’t a good fit for him as this family also has a young child, so we need to find a new home for this boy.
Maple needs a home where he can be his rooster self. He’s a wonderful protector and provider for his hens, and he will let you hold and snuggle him too! He would be a great fit for those that do not have young children, but whom will also have patience for him. We love him dearly and would love to see him go to a good home – it’s heartbreaking for us as we are very attached! We would love to find a him a home that will not turn him into soup or cull him. ((In fact, if there is ANY possible way we could even come visit once in awhile, we would so appreciate that – as I said my children and myself truly love him, he has been like our “dog” in a sense. But of course, we understand if that is not possible.)
I’m so sad because I’m feeling desperate to find this boy a forever home that won’t put him down and I’m running out of time. Is anyone interested? I’m located in SE PA in Chester County but willing to travel within reason for the right fit.
