I ended up with 5-6 rooster too many this year. Three are really getting mean and too many hormones for my young hens. What is the best way to handle too many roos? I probably know what the answer is, but I would love a magical fairy to come and take them away. Any creative ways to handle this situation? |

They can always become freezer Roosters...We have Amish around us so they do our butchering for us.

I like MaryJane's answer :) There seems to always be someone who is at the point where they are ready to go from laying hens to laying hens and a rooster. Or maybe a school or 4H group?

Last week, I took one in from a friend in the same situation as you. He's fitting in nicely and we're enjoying the sound of a cockle-doodle-do at the farm again. Find homes for them?
