The rehoming a rooster thread

[casportpony]

Welcome to BYC, I hope you can find a home for him.

Looking to re-home my rooster, he is slightly aggressive. Chases me and has scratched my leg up once. This is my first time with chickens and sadly I'm in over my head with him. Free to a good home as a "pet". Please don't kill him or hurt him Had him since he was a chick and really sad to have to let him go. Hopefully he can find a home with an owner who is more equipped to handle him.

Name: Soldier

Breed: Cochin Bantam

Color: Black

Size: small (bantam)

He really is a sweet boy. First to hatch out of 3. To be honest he is in a pen so don't know how he would do if given the opportunity to really be mean. He is my sweet boy who will not come running but doesn't mind being picked up. I hatched him out of my Black Cochin Bantams. My beloved Little Big Shot is his dad. (First pic) Our hens, all three, look like this. (Second pic) This is him right after he hatched. (Third pic) This is him now. (Fourth and fifth pic) Feel free to ask for certain info, pics, or other such as weight and I will figure it out. He really needs to find a home since I can't have two roos and 3 hens. We would be willing to drive him 30 min. to and hour. Thank you!

About: We thought he was "Rose" when we got it from the feed store, and raised him from day old. He just started crowing every morning, but not very loud. He is lovely, and should be an excellent add if your flock is missing a rooster. Please don't hesitate to message me and ask for more information!

Did you find a home for him?

I see so many threads about roosters that sadly need to be rehomed that go unanswered and the roosters are likely slaughtered. That's why I decided to make the rooster rehoming thread. On this thread you can post about your rooster that needs to be rehomed and if someone is looking to find a rooster they can post on this thread. Its that simple!

Here's a form I recommend you fill out about your rooster that needs to be rehomed:

Polish rooster his name's is miles. He is 5 months old, and healthy. He is one of 3 that I need to find a home for, polish chickens are on the small size but a big personality. He was hand raised. He is competing with my silver rooster, and I don't want them fighting. I live in Sneads Ferry N.C and hope that someone will find a flock for him to join. Free

Sadly there are more roosters looking for good homes than there are people looking to give them good homes. I live too far away sorry!(Southern WV)

@Nifty-Chicken. I don't know if this thread already is or not, but maybe it should become a sticky thread? That way, it's easier for people to find it.

He's a friendly boy, my sister doesn't want him butchered. He's a bit grabby with the ladies. He's an extra rooster, who needs to be rehomed.

Looking for a rooster in Lynchburg Virginia area. He has to be people friendly and good with hens. I gave my mother a pair of what I thought was a hen and rooster but they are both hens and she wants a rooster so she can hatch some eggs and listen to him crow
