Chirping
I am new to chickens and purchased my first 5 at 2 days old (Silkies and Fizzles). Of course it was straight run and I found myself with 4 roos and 1 hen. They are now about 11 weeks old and things are getting stressful. I have tried rehoming on every site out there - FB sites, Craigs List even my vet office. I am in a rural area with lots of farms and still no takers. NO ONE WANTS A ROO! So what is not being said out there? I can't be the only one this has happened to with all the straight runs I see for sale. I don't have space to set them up separately. The person who I purchased them from said she cannot take any chickens back onto her property or she would loose her certification.
Do I take them to my vet to be euthanized? I don't want to wake up with pecked out eyes or bloody chickens.
