New York
Bronx: Placement is sought for two roosters who were rescued from a NYC school hatching project. The teacher never thought about what to do until after these boys were hatched. Their current caregiver had homes lined up for them, but the potential adopter pulled out of the agreement. The roosters appear to be Rhode Island Reds, one somewhat smaller than the other. They are both five months old and generally nice. The large one is a bit nippy when in his cage (who can blame him?) but well behaved in the yard. The little one, who is sweet, cannot fly well due to some wing damage, so his new home will need to be well predator-proofed. The roosters’ caregivers are looking for a great home and will drive within a 5-hour radius of NYC to get them there! Please contact Zan.

Mahopac: Two roosters need a good home. They are beautiful and respond to their names. Flava is white, and DeCurls is black. They will be one year old in April. DeCurls and Flava's caregivers must give them up, because roosters are not permitted in the area where they live. If you can adopt these birds, contact Chris. Serious inquiries only, please.

Pennsylvania
 Philadelphia: A home is needed for a rooster who was found running loose in a playground and is currently being held at Animal Care & Control of Philadelphia. Keeping chickens is illegal in the city. Animal Care & Control does not have adequate housing for him, and their network cannot take in any more roosters, so a home must be found ASAP. If can help, please contact Marie. Thank you.

Pottsville: Homes are needed for several chickens and a potbellied pig, all rescued from a neglectful home when their “owner” was sent to jail. The chickens, some of whom are Polish Cresteds, range in age from chicks to adult hens and roosters. The potbellied pig, Patty, was fed table scraps and allowed to become so overweight that she cannot open her eyes. She will need a very understanding caregiver who can keep her on a diet to help her lose some weight. For more information, please contact the Hillside SPCA.
