I have three 9-week old Icelandic cockerels that I need to find a home for...or a stewpot. Any advice on finding someone to take and butcher them?

That was just rude and uncalled for.I have no idea why your first response to cockerels would be to kill them off, but since your standards are so low it shouldn't be to hard. People--me included often struggle to find good homes for roosters that unfortunately turned out to be male instead of the preferred pullet, but since you have no care towards their future well being, kijiji or a local bird auction may be your best bet.

You have no right to degrade a fellow chicken keeper simply because his/her beliefs are different than yours!
OP, since they are Icelandic/Viking boys, you may have a chance at finding them a good home for someone that breeds. I agree with Mrs. K regarding Craigslist, no questions asked.
Or, you can keep them in a bachelor pad, fatten them up on meat bird feed for 4 more weeks and harvest them for your own family.
I have no problem raising birds for meat-- just put the last batch of meaties in the deep freezer this morning.
