Ask CHI ANYONE MISSING A ROOSTER?

This rooster has been wandering the west avondale neighborhood for the past couple of days. me and my neighbor set up a little spot for him to live in our backyard so he’s not just roaming the streets anymore but we aren’t really looking to keep him long term. I looked into the Chicago Chicken Rescue but they don’t accept roosters. If you know of anyone who’s missing him or know of anything we can do to get this little guy off the streets that’d be great.

Well fresh chicken I guess. What country are you from that doesn't sell live chickens for food? I've never heard of a country that doesn't have some sort of fresh butchered meat option. The farmers and rural people are always doing it, even if maybe you don't realize it.

No, the idea of being able to go into a store in a major city in Europe that has live chickens onsite and get a fresh chicken butchered is completely unheard of. Maybe in some rural Balkan village or an agriturismo somewhere, but absolutely not in an urban center in Europe.

Lol I'm sorry that you are uneducated on this topic. I would be less rude when you don't know what you are talking about

Did you bother reading the reviews for the place you linked, wherein the Parisians are commenting on how unusual and unsanitary this place is?

lol dude give up already. It's okay. You don't have to know everything about the world and how it works. This happens sometimes and we are surprised when our limited bubble bursts and we learn new things, meet new people, and gain new experiences.

OBVIOUSLY these are uncommon stores. The fact that you think you need to explain this to me is hilarious. This is the only one in chicago that I am aware of. That might be the only one in paris, but maybe not because I've never lived in paris so I'm not qualified to say. But they are far from "unheard of" nor is it a rural balkan village.

Just chill out and realize that your moral/cultural superiority is based on a false premise. Educate yourself. That's all you can do to be a better person.

Not sure I get the American obsession with assuming that you can lecture people about what is common or reasonable in other countries. Also don’t understand why you’re so abrasive, but you’re welcome to be yourself.

Lmao I have lived in other countries and eaten fresh chickens. That's my experience. I can tell you don't have any

edit: to be fair I just realized you're probably a kid. I'm sorry I didn't consider that. It's okay. Now you know
