YO GEORGIANS! :)

Hi Georgia Backyard Chicken Folks! I have a beautiful, sweet bantam mottled cochin cockerel that I need to find a good home for! He's about 8.5 weeks old. I'm devastated to lose him, but I'm not allowed to have anything that crows in Athens. His name is Billy and he's so sweet and easy to handle. He's very good about watching after his ladies (takes his job very seriously), and is just a handsome little dude. I love the squeaky little sounds he makes. And so far, he only crows a little in the morning (6-8 times all in a row) and it is hysterical.

I'm looking to send him to a loving home where he will be loved and not eaten, have a dry, predator proof home, and to someone who knows how to properly introduce a new member to their flock. Below is a link to one of my earlier posts that has pictures of him at about 5 weeks old, and I will be happy to share more updated photos (he's starting to look more mottled). Please private message me if you are interested!

He is adorable!!! I feel your pain! We've had to rehome a few roosters over the years & its heartbreaking. We're currently harboring an illegal roo that one of my hens hatched. He is so beautiful & sweet & everyday I wait for the city to come knocking at the gate. I wish you all the good luck in the world finding a great home for him. :fl:hugs
 
Nope not sorry. Lol the humidity is terrible. I'd say you get used to it, but you don't. My family in South Florida says it's hotter in GA than FL bc the humidity. Snow is rare unless you live in the mountains. Hoa.. Don't have that problem. We have a farm. Electric bills tend to run high for those who aren't conscious. My house is an old farm house. Roughly 1000 scare feet. It's small, but the land makes up for it. I utilize as much natural light as possible and don't wash clothes Btwn 2 and 7. My light bill is usually around 200-250 a month. I know some who have much larger bills. We have a well so we don't have to pay for water like in the city. Depending on where you live, you may or may not have a farmers market year round, but there is always someone who grew enough to share. I'm far enough west, I don't think Flo will phase us much.just some wind and rain
Our birds weathered out the storms last year.



Thanks for all the info! :thumbsup I'm surprised to see that your house is just a little smaller than mine. I thought mine was the smallest (hence my username.) Stay safe & dry out there!!!

sure will!!! The only thing I'd change about my small home is to have a bigger kitchen and laundry room. Lol as a stay home mom, that's where I spend most of my days.
