Lost a Flock: Lonely Rooster?

[mo-diggity]

Would probably be best for both rooster and keepers to send him off to another flock if possible....
.......especially if you live in a harsh climate...
and spend the winter planning your coop and run then start fresh with a batch of chicks in the spring.

Planning/building a coop and run and getting it all set takes a sh!tload of time, not a job I'd want to do in the winter where I live.

I agree with this.

Trying to rebuild a coop while you're on a time constraint (lonely rooster) just tends to lead to cutting corners and rushing things.

Thanks to both of you for your advice. Living in northern Michigan, with another 6 inches of snow on the ground last night, means we will wait until spring to build a new coop. Thanks again!
