Sorry they all sold out last night. First nobody wanted them now in three day 65 are gone. Thanks for all replies.

I got some Red Sex links that will be laying shortly I believe. I have a listing on Craigslist also. I am in Hardyville, Va. Probably about an hour away. If they don't sell by this weekend I will gave them to you at $8.00 ea.

I hunt each white tail season. I use a crossbow, black powder, and we can use a shotgun or rifle in certain counties in Virginia.

I have some Red Sex Link Pullets for sale. I am located in Hardyville, Va. and they must be picked up. These are getting ready to lay anytime now. They are $15.00 each but if you buy more than 2 I will sell them for $10.00 each. Come and get them while they last.

Building your own is surely the way to go. You can build a large coop for 150 dollars.

Well we love our chickens and my wife has them all named. I have found that if you they a stressed day at work all you got to do is sit and watch your chickens and they will relieve it. I make a point to visit with them each day.

I just let my squash grow on a little mound around the plant I make and they do fine for me. The cages I made I have also been using for several years. I check my garden every day. I am already picking squash.

I also agree with the heat. Really isn't needed unless temps get way down and stay here for awhile.

I would surely keep it outside whenever possible.

I am using the cups on my smaller chickens but they don't seem to have the act of pushing the valve to get the cup filled back up. I plan on watching them and if it continues I think I will try the nipples on them because my leg horns love the nipples.

I usually get them two squares out of a garden plant tray. The squares are about 2 pounds each I think but that is just a guess. Next time I am going to try a little Barley also. It seems like maybe they may like a choice. Not sure if they like the sprouts more than the wheat grass. They go...

I current have 10 hens and one rooster in one coop and run. Then I have a second coop and run with two smaller hens and planning to put another 7 or 8 in with them. I like to keep the latger chickens separate from the bigger ones.

I have just picked my first yellow squash of the season. Got to get back out there and do a little weeding.

All our chickens will go in just after sunset most of the time. It is just like they have an order to go in because if I watch they will go one after the other spaced about 20 to 30 seconds apart. Really cool to watch. They don't care if you are out or not they will go right to bed anyway. So cool.

I believe they will eat grass and weeds as well as most goats will.
