Unwanted Roosters

[Chicachu323]

We ordered 10 baby bantams online from Hoover's Hatchery, but It turns out 5 of them are roosters. The city has regulations against keeping roosters, so does anyone know where I can take them? There are a lot of things that say return them to the store, but we didn't get them at a store we can go to and they are about 2 months old. Thank you if you have some words to offer!

Craigslist is always and option. Local wildlife preserves or shelters take them sometimes too. Good luck!

In my area there are a couple of good sized breeders that will take in extra boys. I was able to find them on Craigslist. If you do list them to rehome them via CL, I'd suggest attaching a small price tag (~$3ea) vs giving them away. It helps attract a more savory crowd.

Or see if a nearby wildlife rehab facility wants them. You might find actual homes for some, try that first.
