@FortCluck , no not those in particular. Just any kind of good meaty, meat chickens. Just want to stock up our freezer during the winter with some fresh chickens. Trying to avoid going through a hatchery; would rather take my chances with a member in this group of fine people aka chicken...

I was wondering if you still have any fertile emu eggs as well for sale?

If you still have the ducks, please let us know (we can take the rooster too so you can have them all gone). We live in Clifton Forge, VA so would need to meet somewhere in the middle between here and there. Just let me know. Thanks!

Looking to buy some meat chicken hatching eggs. Let me know what you have and how much. Shipping would be to 24422. Looking for anywhere from 12 to 24 and will be a repeat buyer if the price + shipping is a good deal. Thanks!!

Will do @ChocolateMouse . I Don't know why anyone would say something like that and it be not helpful but possibly harmful to our birds. I would never do anything that would hurt them knowingly and I will be correcting my mistakes right away you can bet that! I will do one or that other (layer...

Thank you oldhenlikesdogs! I very much appreciate it. Will try those suggestions first thing tomorrow! Keeping fingers crossed! lol!

Hello everyone! I know that molting and often the winter time can hinder the laying of chickens but this has been going since the end of October or before that they quit laying. I have many different types of breeds, one or two roosters possibly, I think one at least, the rest, about 30 maybe...

Thank you thank you Jed Jackson!! Your detailed reply is so very appreciated. I am going to upload some 'individual pics' of the buffs that I believe are mostly cockerels and I will try to get a better picture of the red and black one later just for for sure verification before we get rid of him...
