Need to rehome cockerel!

[Weatherfordmom27]

My neighborhood allows chickens but not roosters. I’ve been trying to find him a new home since we realize he was a Cockerel. Everyone that said they would take him has changed their mind. All the Buy, Sell, Trade sites around here don’t allow animals to be posted. I don’t know where else to turn. He’s 19 to 21 weeks so he starting to get loud and often with crowing. Any advice???

Are you giving him away or selling him? It would help to know where you are located generally. Also, a rooster is a chicken. It is also a male chicken over the age of a year. A cockerel is a male chicken under the age of a year.

Have you put up ads at your local feed store? Have you tried Craigslist?

I know a rooster is a chicken and I know the difference between a roo and cockerel.

Yes on craigslist and I've called feed stores. I've found contacted a roo rescue about an hour away, I'm hoping to hear back from them. Thanks for your input!

You didnt answer the question. Are you trying to sell him or give him away? Your general location could help as well.

I wish I could rehome him, but we already have 3 roosters.
