Hey all, I am looking to get roosters off of craigslist here and there, to practice chicken raising/ butchering.
Have a few questions:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-What rooster breeds are the ''ones'' to stay away from? (too tough etc)
-Age that would be too tough, on average?
- What size ''pet carrier'' for one rooster for four hours in a cool climate? Am looking at a 12 x 20 but that seems just a bit small (random breeds)
=========================================================
-Craigslist has random ''roosters'' and sometimes older chickens for free, at least once a week, so before I try and raise my own, I can get some experience with the end aspects of chicken raising.
Thanks!!
