    Rooster Questions - Dirty or Infested?

    Ralph Macchio, our former head Roo, is recovering from a cockfight from his progeny of last year.

    Free Male Easter Egger (Black/green iridescent)

    Got some chicks in February, now that they’ve gotten larger one is a male. We’re looking to get him rehomed because we live inside city limits and can’t have roosters. Otherwise it’s worst case for him.
