Hi, I'm just about to cull my roosters. I have two magnificent light sussex and four rhode island reds, and two cream legbars.  I'm just south of Dunfermline. Take your pick!

Hi, I've never removed spurs before, wouldn't know where to start! They don't have them yet, anyway. Can you pick them up? We're not far off the motorway. I don't ever really venture in your direction, and can't afford the petrol for a special trip. By the way, the second of the cream legbars is still very small, hatched the beginning of March.

You will have to go to the USA to get a rooster, only cockerals in GB. ::)

I thought that cockerels were boys under a year and roosters boys over a year, just like chickens are girls under and hens are girls over one. Am I wrong? I hate being wrong.
