Eating them calms them a lot, too.

I didn't want to be the one to say it.

but I have sent mine to the farmers market when they just would not behave

It's ok. We all know where chicken comes from. That's why we prefer to eat our own.

Ha, yeah I'd prefer my own fictional ending to his journey elsewhere... Rather not kill him if possible

Yup yup. I love my animals but my Aunt's & Uncles all had real farms and lived reality with their animals. They cared for them, some were pets some were food. There are a lot of views, but one thing is for certain if you have an aggressive rooster simply rehoming him won't change his bad attitude it just becomes either someone else's problem or their dinner.

The girls laid me a couple torpedos today. Guess they think we're going to war or something. lol!

The egg on the far right is from my Delaware, who hadn't laid in 8 days. I'm guessing her egg maker needed a little maintenance. She even put a little dollop on the end for me.

I have never eaten my chickens, I try to rehome my roos if I get too many but I know some become food, I'd rather know they are food and not being used in fighting that would really bother me but I do keep several and I keep the best protectors and big boys. I know a couple of my boys are kings of their own flocks. I had one I named Charlie and this man came out to look at my roos to get one for his girls and Charlie wasn't supposed to be going but he sure was a big beautiful boy anyway I caught the boy he wanted and he was in the back of the truck and then he saw Charlie so Charlie who was a great guy sweet personality went to be king and he is still doing what he is supposed to do, I had my doubts because he was so laid back but nope the girls made a man out of him, but I do raise my turkeys (broad breasted) for my holiday meals.

I bet she feels a lot better, she deserves a treat

psst... it's right under her name. Summerville. If you are on the west side of Atlanta, she's about an hour and a half from you.

Clearly we need to start our first chapter of CA, (Chickens Anonymous)

valleychicks so how did your hatch go, you miss a day on here and trying to catch up is crazy. also you have goats and I really want a goat for the milk I heard Nubian's are the best what is your experience? also I have never had a goat before so how goes the care?

LOL! CA yep, I think so. I don't have goats though just chickens and a chubby short legged JRT. My mother wants to move to GA from MS and get chickens and goats and maybe a mini pony. Maybe one day soon she can get my dad to move this way.
