merlina Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 These gentlemen have been hanging around outside for days (I think the link below will work....) No-one seems to want to collect them. We (me & neighbours) not so pleased with the early morning wake-up calls this weekend. And my girls have been confined to barracks. What sort are they. Any suggestions what to do with them? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10154218198635392&set=a.147824555391.237901.572595391&type=1&theater picture available in a subsequent post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat tails Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Wow! Big handsome guys! Maybe someone dumped them with you, knowing you also own chickens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Very handsome. Could you keep one and your neighbour the other ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 the one on the table could be a Leghorn the other one at first I thought was an Amber type hybrid cockerel but on second look it could be a leghorn cross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beantree Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 We've had 5 dumped on us. We managed to re-home 3 of them. One was thrown down the drive and past the kitchen window from a passing car!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I've had several cardboard boxes containing either cockerels or moribund hens dumped on my front door step over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizzieLloyd Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 they are gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlina Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 It transpires they live at the other end of the village. They were collected twice but clearly not confined very well as they came straight back! They clearly liked the neighbour's patio with free cat food and adjacent bird table. Poor neighbour was woken by them at 4am yesterday and then at 4.40am by a guy across the road demanding that she shut 'her' cockerels up! So keeping them wasn't an option.. The owner appears to have collected them (again), today. Hopefully they've been confined to more secure quarters! Thanks for all the replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
