Lovely Cockerel Looking For A Home!
This lovely boy is looking for a home. He's a Silkie X Araucana, so will carry the olive egg gene. He had the 5 toes of a Silkie, but had to have one removed as it was laming him as a chick. He was born on 15th June & has only just started crowing. He currently free ranges with 7 hens, but we already have a cockerel (his father the Silkie), so this flock is too small for him to have a safe position in the pecking order as he matures. I've been picking him up at night, once he's gone in to roost, but haven't tamed him during the day. He's quite timid & a bit flighty. It'd such a shame to have to cull him. Ad ID:
