Beautiful cockerel/rooster
Last chance to nab this beautiful bird before the lockdown! Get in touch by 9am Wednesday morning to arrange a handover.
Astro is a beautiful Australorp cockerel (young rooster) looking for a new forever home.
Astro is friendly and curious, happy to eat out of your hand and while he doesn't like being touched, he is happy in both human and chicken company. He would love to have a flock to look after, and maybe become a dad.
Astro is a favourite with us, having been with us since he was a wee egg. We've kept him as long as we can here in the 'burbs, but now he needs a place where he can really settle in, and maybe even crow to his heart's content.
