60 Roosters With Razor Blades Attached to Their Wings Sent to Shocked N.J. Animal Rescue
NJ.COM ^ | May. 24, 2024

By Nyah Marshall | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com Funny Farm Rescue and Sanctuary in Atlantic County initially agreed this month to take in four roosters rescued from an alleged cockfighting ring.

But, when a truck arrived, there were 60 noisy birds instead.

“My volunteer called me and said, ‘Oh, there’s a couple more than what you had thought,’” Laurie Zaleski, founder of Funny Farm Rescue and Sanctuary said on Wednesday.

“I went there and the roosters were in cat carriers and there was 60 of them,” Zaleski said. “They were all crowing simultaneously and I literally almost started to cry.”

Each of the roosters arrived on May 4 with razor blades attached to their wings, which were probably used in a vicious form of cockfighting that left the birds bloodied. Zaleski had to remove the razor blades one by one using a wire cutter.

“The razor was almost like an earring but around the bone of their arm, it was horrible,” Zaleski said. “I’ve never seen that before in my life.”

Zaleski and her team did not have enough cages or volunteers to handle the unexpected number of animals. The sanctuary, which is located in the Mays Landing section of Hamilton Township, was preparing for the Spring Festival it was hosting the next morning, she said.

The roosters needed to be quarantined from other animals for at least 30 days to ensure they were free of illnesses. And, the birds had to be separated from each other to prevent them from fighting.

"People are so cruel to animals"

I hate to break the news to you, Bambi, but animals are crueler to each other.

I suspect that they wing blades are defensive.

There was a guy ip nirth a bit (Oregon coast) that raised all kinds of pheasants. One of his Reeves’ cocks spurred him in the thigh and he had to be hospitalized. Very wild birds. Stout, and flighty. Not uncommon for them to rocket to the top of their enclosure and break their neck. .

Any form of animal fighting is a sign of having tiny Willie’s.

My condolences for your loss.
She was a beautiful dog! 🫠
I’m sure she couldn’t have wished for a better forever home.

There are some sick, sick bastards out there!
Remember that POS Michael Vick and his dogfighting ring, in Atlanta?
I rescued one of the bait dogs.
She didn’t have a fighting bone in her body and was lucky to be kicked out on the streets of Atlanta.

[But is some of the industrial meat plants just as bad?]

“Sometimes, Senor, the bull does not lose.” - punchline to a very bad joke.

Yes I remember that evil soulless maggot and I’ll NEVER forget him.

God bless you for saving that dog.

I have a rescue Am Staff found on the streets of Baltimore.
She had scars typical of bait dogs.

She’s considered dog aggressive now ( who could blame her??) but she lives a nice life now.
She also seems to love the pup who is growing up with her after my PTSD dog lost his fight with osteosarcoma last October.
The pup is a silly friendly 6 month old goofy Dobe who she is not threatened by.

The Am Staff is named Boo from To Kill A Mockingbird.

Everyone thought Boo Radley was an evil dangerous monster but he wasn’t.
The only words he ever said were “ Will you take me home?”

I said yes to her after she’d spent months of no one wanting her.

If dogs could talk, I think some of them would break our hearts.
