I know this is a long shot (& I also check Craigslist) but I thought I would post this here as well. I'm not in a hurry to find this guy but am always hoping....
I am looking for a large fowl, white turken rooster: NN preferred, fully naked necked with no or extremely minimal bow tie.
I am looking for a meaty Rooster (or a young Roo from parents with good carcass qualities) to keep with my dual purpose backyard flock. If he comes from someone's backyard meat projects, that would be a bonus. I would like him to be white or mostly white/light colored. I have enough red and black birds.
He would have 17 hens of multiple breeds, some smaller leghorns & some larger dual purpose breeds. They are in a well ventilated 8.5' X 8.5' coop with an attached run (in the shade) and are let out to range our 3/4 acre yard for one or two hours a day, after I get home from work. There are occasional weekends when they don't get out, but they get plenty of feed, water, & snacks.
If anyone knows where he may be, let me know.
I would also consider some fertile eggs or newly hatched chicks from a turken meat project flock as I currently have a broody Jersey Giant hen.
Thank you in advance!
