We bought 5 chickens several weeks ago. One of the Maran's was meant to be a cockerel but hey presto, both are! I need to find one of them a good home. I know it's a big ask. He's free ranging on half an acre at the minute but I appreciate I can't ask for similar! I'd be grateful of any free range home. The seller DID say that if any of the other 4 chickens turned out to be cockerels he would have them back as he has people after the cockerels for cockerel fighting
so he won't be going back there.
The cockerels are getting along fine together at the moment, but what has brought everything to a head is that one of them really attacked our elderly Westie today. He wouldn't back off either! We've kept chickens for about 7 years in total and never had that happen before! Really full of himself being young and virile I think!
If you can help please let me know. Have pics but not sure how to attach?
Thank you!

Did you find a home for your cockerel? Just lost ours and need a replacement. We've 12 ex bats free ranging in half an acre. Close to Hodnet. Steve

Just read the 'fighting' comment.
I hope you reported him to the RSPCA or police (there is a wildlife crime section - unless it's been 'cut')

I can recommend the facebook group "cockerel trader", there's lots of people trying to find homes for cockerels on there (tis where I got my Bill)
