Title: Cockerels - for sale?
Post by: joyofchicks on April 09, 2010, 11:47:49 pm

Am I daft to think of putting my two pure breed cockerels (Light Sussex and Cuckoo Maran) into the rare breeds sale at Thainstone on 1st May?  They are currently residing with a poultry keeping friend but I fear have moved from 'parole' status to 'death row'!  Opinion of those who sell at sales much appreciated.

Can't offer an informed opinion but if it costs nothing can it hurt to try if you don't want to eat them.
