Unwanted cockerels - where to take them?
« on: August 05, 2015, 05:43 »
Hi,

We have 2 (very vocal) cockerels I would like to give a new home. Where should I take them? We live near Bristol.

Any advice greatly appreciated...

Thanks

Dan

Hi and welcome  :)

We have a swap shop on here where you could offer them to forum members.  You may not get a taker, but it is worth a shot. 

http://chat.allotment-garden.org/index.php?board=33.0

Alternatively you could try offering them on Preloved, or one of the other sites that allow posts about animals.  Usually cockerels are offered for free.

You have to be ready for someone to take them to rear for meat, as not many people just want a male bird for keeps. 

If you can't keep them, the alternative is culling, so at least this way they get a chance.
