The Rooster Roster is a GO!

šŸ„ššŸ£šŸ„šŸ“

Welcome to the VERY FIRST edition of the Rooster Roster! We’re still getting on our (anisodactyl) feet, so please let us know if there’s anything you’d like to see in future editions. We read all your replies to this email!

So without further ado, here’s what we have for you this week:

  • A peacock and two possible homing pigeons in need of… well, a home.

  • Scores of roosters, a smattering of hens, and a few ducks looking for their forever families.

  • One shelter with so many celebrity birds they don’t fit in a single listing!

  • The first steps to gentling your new rooster, even if he doesn’t like you yet.

  • Our heartfelt thanks for being with us as we try to find homes for all our feathery little friends.
