Novice question about cockerels

It can'T hurt to try a transport train, lol . . .SHHH!

I’ve honestly never heard of a transport train! I have heard of poultry transporters but they cost $$$$

 

[redinator]

is there any way you can like guarantee that he will be alive when he gets here?

Only if I drove him the entire way, or met in the middle. With my dad's health that isn't feasible.

Animal shelters do it to help get dogs and cats adopted, why not chickens?

like if he gets here dead I don't want to pay for shipping him here cuz that is going to cost a lot

Yeah, interesting concept! I hadn’t even heard of it for dogs and cats. I must be living under a rock

That's understandable. I'll try the box trick @Slothinc mentioned and see if the helps with the wee hours crowing.

I'd rather keep them both since well behaved roosters are hard to come by and they get along.

okay I guess I wouldn't really want to pay that much to ship 1 chicken that could get here dead

You could try the box thing, and keep ads up for them in the meantime. You may be able to find a home for one or both of them if you keep updating the ads!
