Oh, how sad. I had a pet rooster when I lived up North. Could you find a farm that will take them. I know Miami doesn't have too many farms, but if you advertised outside of Miami you may find someone. What about a bird sanctuary? Don't forget to call you Animal shelters and even call the local pound. Someone might know someone else that can do it. Good Luck To You!!
