Silver Ameraucana

On silver Ameraucana cockerels when would one start culling for red or brown still showing up in the feathers? These guys where hatched June second.

Immediately. Once they have it they always have it.

Oh nice I can get rid of like five more mouths to feed.

Will you destroy or sell? (I'm not in the market, just curious.)

ETA, should add, give away.

Good luck! I have 10 beautiful lavender EE cockerels to find homes for here in SE MO and have no idea how to do it. I was going to try FB Marketplace, but ... can't sell animals there. How will you market your birds?

Did you happen to see this post from a few days ago? There are some pics in the comments (and disagreement).

No ... when I click on fb links they don't seem to take me where they're supposed to, just to my fb home page where I have to log in. Then ... I just get lost wandering around. I'm hardly ever there so I log out every time.

No ...

Hmm? I was replying to the OP regarding Silver Ameraucana selection.

Regarding your post...

Spoiler

for rehoming cockerels, I find craigslist to work best.
FB is better when trying to sell something specific / purebred. On craigslist I have to set some ground rules in the add and only use my email with the forwarding feature, then if their message makes sense and they answer a follow-up adequately, I give them the phone number.
Lots of folks still sell on FB. First find poultry or livestock groups for your area, join them. Then post a picture without the problem keywords like "for sale" "rehome" or prices. You can say "Looking for a new coop" and have people message you if interested.
In your shoes I'd recruit the grandkids to help.
