Searching for Light Brahma Cockerel

[ssferret]

Thank you so much @Chickenhappy8708. Worst case scenario is we might have to buy a newly hatched cockerel and include 1 or 2 pullets. Adding the pullets may have us making a bigger coop but we'll manage. He would be happiest being part of a flock so I feel that it would be in his best interest. I just would hate if afterwards a poor cockerel needed a new home and I wouldn't be there for him because I was impatient.

I'm pretty sure when the time is right, he will come to you, I'm not sure if 4H is still going, but Mabey you could buy one there.

There are 210 roosters Avalible on Adoptapet.com right now cockerels need love to.

Thanks! I'm going to check it out now. I have looked for rooster rescues in the past and only found one near me but it had few roosters and none were light brahmas. I should have asked you guys to begin with.

I searched everywhere for a rescue with a Light Brahma cockerel/rooster. There are none within 200 miles from me and those within the 200 mile radius have very few roosters available anyway. I would have loved getting him from a rescue.

Thank you so much for everything you've done to help me but I just found somebody on Craigslist that was giving one away. I guess it helps searching Craigslist daily. He's beautiful and he's going to be mine. I'm so excited! But I also feel bad about the little guy you showed me. I hope he will find his forever home too.

This will be my new cockerel. Believe it or not he happens to be the same exact age as my pullets, between 4 - 5 months.

He is so cute! I'm glad he has a home with your pullets!

Now for the big task: the introduction. Guess I'll be searching the forum and watching videos to make sure I get it right. I hope it doesn't take too long for the girls and him to warm up to each other or he'll be sleeping in bed with us. We only have one coop.
