BTW, I edited my post to say winners will be announced on Saturdays.

I really like this idea since it’s also spreading awareness of the roosters in shelters.

Here's my 13 week old Buff Orpington named Barney.
He's starting to get girl crazy, but the girls aren't crazy about him. The girls gang up on him when he tries to force a hen. As he tries to learn manners, he has started nesting with the girls when they are laying. I don't think he realizes that laying time is quiet time.

That was mostly why I started this thread, I don't have the time or money to adopt all of them, but I might be able to spread awareness, and so many roosters can be saved. Cage life is no life for a rooster.

I have to say... There are so many great roosters, I don't know who I'm choosing on Saturdays.

A lot of shelters that have multiple roosters keep them in bachelor pads, which I think is pretty neat.

I think that's cool, and a better way to keep homeless roosters. But some shelters keep them in cages. I have a soft spot for Leghorns, so I chose him, next week will for sure be a caged one!

If anyone wants a cockerel, there is a great cockerel rehoming thread right now.
