No, it’s not. Things are quite stressful at the moment and it’s only compounding it. I’m even toying with the idea (as another last resort) to pay the vet $200 to get them both euthanised and then bury them, so I know definitively that they didn’t become someone’s dinner.Good luck Lozzy - I know you have a lot going on so I am sure this is not helping.
Hoping for the best.
Oh no! I’m sad to hear this and hope you change your mind as the grief becomes less painful.Yeah, my heart is pretty shattered. I think these are our last chickens.
We’ll have to see. It’s not fair to them if there is something toxic in our back yard.Oh no! I’m sad to hear this and hope you change your mind as the grief becomes less painful.
I'm sorry to hear that but I surely understand.Yeah, my heart is pretty shattered. I think these are our last chickens.
Good point. Are they all getting cancer or don’t you know?
I think there have been different issues, but cancer is definitely one of them. Salpingitis, EYP, cellulitis, failure to thrive, heart-failure....
If sanctuaries are full, it's probably because people are not wanting roosters...but still maybe you could try the equivalent of Craigslist where you live and either ask for a very small sum, like 2 dollars, or for pictures two weeks and a month after, specifying you are doing this because you don't want them to end as dinner...likely there are many others roosters to give for free
