Re: Weekend Plans?

[(Anonymous)]

Sorry about the jobs and good luck on the continuing hunt. I’m gonna buy some potting soil and a couple small replacement parts for my shower and bathtub, stock up on chicken food, and try to nurse one of my old hens back to health, poor bugger had surgery to empty her impacted crop—where chickens store food until it heads to the stomach and gizzard—today. I gave her some smushed up boiled egg and she ate it, so I’m cautiously optimistic.

What are you planting? I hope your chicken gets better! How many do you have?

Re: Weekend Plans?

Right now I’m planting bulbs, mostly daffodils, and I’m hoping to start winter veggies going but I kind of want it to rain a bit before I put stuff that might need weekly water in the ground.

And I have sixteen chickens right now (minimum hatchery mail order was 15) but once they start laying I’m gonna give some away. And I’m hoping the school across the road, which has a garden and hens, would like a rooster. I didn’t order one, but the hatchery goofed, and I have one neighbor who enjoys being a busybody about code violations, so even though I’ve only let Beetlejuice the rooster out to crow his head off when it’s well after 7:00 am or 9:00 on weekends—when nuisance noise laws let up— he may still be a butt.

I just don’t want something I raised from three days old to end up euthanized at a shelter, in a soup pot, or in a cockfighting ring—which is actually what anti-rooster ordinances usually are meant to stop. The noise is a pain at 5:30 am, but if I shut Beetlejuice in the bathroom I can’t hear him from the property line, so I get up at 5:00 and he takes over the bathroom for a couple hours.

Have you tried one of those anti-crowing rooster collars?

Re: Weekend Plans?

Yep, put it on him in the morning, made sure he couldn't crow but could still eat and breathe, left for work, and came home twelve hours later to find him roosting sans collar. I found it abandoned in the yard the next day. And the neighbors have already heard him, even if it hasn't been at the asscrack of dawn.

I don't really want a rooster and never planned on having one, but now that I've got one I just want him to have a good long life, which is hard to come by for a rooster. No-kill shelters and sanctuaries get inundated with them and the nearest one to me is 40+ miles away (because the zoning there allows for roosters) and adopts them out for $5, which could easily lead to a soup pot or a fighting pit. And I'm pissed because before 2012 it was legal to keep roosters where I am.

A bio teacher at my high school had a whole menagerie of critters, including a rooster that students would walk around the quad with a length of cord tied to his leg, so he could eat grass and bugs. Crossing my fingers the middle school across the road will take him.
