I would like to hear from anyone who has tried to find a home for an extra rooster and been unsuccessful. I would like to hear the details of your experiences with such, and how you dealt with the situation. Did you build a bachelor pen for your extra roo, and if so, how did he do in it?
Or did you keep trying and eventually find another home for him? How long did it take to place your rooster successfully?
If your rooster was rejected after placement and had to come back home to you, what were the reasons the adopter gave you?
Anyone give away a rooster only to learn that the adopter wasn't zoned for roosters and it eventually came back home to you?
If a rooster did come back to you, did it introduce disease to your flock, having been around other chickens for a time, and, if so, how long had it been around the other chickens?
All scenarios will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Clare
