    True Araucanas wanted in FL

    My son wants us to add true Araucanas to our flock for some beautiful blue eggs and I’ve also read that they tend to have good personality traits. But I can’t seem to find them anywhere! Does anyone know a reputable source for them? I’d like to get 4 to 6, only one rooster of course. I would...

    Why I think Bantams are not the best pet chickens

    Our silver duckwing bantams have been our favorite of all our chickens....especially the rooster, but because he was not fearful we just lost him to a hawk today and are so sad. I really want to get another one, but don’t want to go through losing one again.

    Central Florida - 6 week Welsummer/Ameracauna Roo

    I have 1 too many roosters. Just hatched 6 eggs (fertilized by my Welsummer Rooster) and the Roo is from my Ameracauna hen (I think). If interested in rehoming, reply and then I can email or text you a picture if I don’t get one posted here today. Thanks, Mark in Winter Haven, FL

    Anyone in central Florida want to combine an order

    If anyone is interested in going together on an order with Cackle Hatchery, I am in Polk County Florida and I only want 5 Bantam Old English Silver Duckwings (just lost the one I had and he was awesome, but I have 14 other hens). I'm willing to place the order and split the shipping cost equally...

    Welsummer Roo in central FL

    We have a handsome 18 week old Welsummer Roo that we'd like to rehome to another chicken loving family. We love him but just don't want him pestering the ladies and that is, well, impossible. We are in Polk County, FL

    New to integrating new chicks with my hens

    Hi friends. I have 3 "groups" of girls --- my 1 year old free rangers (4 hens plus 1 sweet bantam rooster), my 8 week olds (6 hens, hopefully) and my 4 week olds (4 hens, hopefully). The 8 weekers have been outside for 4 weeks now and in a separate coop at night. The 4 weekers have been outside...

    8 week old Roo walking stiff

    Thank you chick nanny. His feet and toes look straight and normal. Maybe he just strained something or got stuck in chicken wire last night. I'm hoping for the best!

    8 week old Roo walking stiff

    Hi friends, I have an 8 week old Welsummer (80% sure he's a Rooster now) who this morning started walking stiffly and sits alot more frequently. My 5 other 8 week old hens are fine and my year olds are fine also. They are all free range. I've read some other posts and don't like what I see...
