Need to rehome a very young rooster

[kdemers]

Hi all. I'm in Western Massachusetts and have a little roo that I am not allowed to keep here. Don't know if anyone has any info about where I can rehome him? I got him (as a pullet) from Tractor Supply in early April and he's definitely a rooster. The store says they don't sex them so I can't bring him back there. He's an ISA red and is still completely white while all of the girls are turning red. He's showing rooster signs, but he lets me handle him and I think he'd be a good addition to a flock if anyone needs a little guardian guy. He herds the girls around, stands in the doorway of the coop and watches everything and generally tries to run the yard. All that said, he runs towards me every time I go out with treats and follows me around. Anybody know anybody who would take in a little guy?

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I've successfully rehomed a nice cockerel by taking a very good picture of him and posting him on Craigslist and on 2 different FB poultry groups in my area. Give that a try.
Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestion. Did not even know there were poultry groups on Facebook. Will check my local.
