Free Ranging
I make a weak attempt to sell mine, according to time of year *where I live* its harder to sell in the late summer/fall. I usually give mine away after 2 weeks.Hey folks, got a quick question. What do you do with your spare roos?
All four of the Silkies I purchased in June appear to be male, and I really don't want any more roosters running around. Is it cost-effective to raise them to slaughter weight? Or am I better off trying to give them away free of charge? I live in a very rural area and most people aren't looking for roosters - even free ones.
Some of my friends take theirs to a local livestock/poultry auction and swap. I dont do that because the ONE time I attended the thing, it appeared to me the animals that were brought there were not in just "good" condition, so I dont go that route.
Good luck getting your roos a home.
