Thanks!

Any idea what they might be mixed with? Especially the black one?

A new friend had more roosters than she needed, and offered to give me her extra. Any idea what they might be mixed with? Especially the black one?

I got these from a new friend, who had more roosters than she needed. I’ve been told they’re barnyard mixes. Any idea what they might be mixed with? Especially the black one… He’s so very friendly and docile, I’m hoping he’s a good breed.

I’m so sorry you have to rehome your chicken… it is sad.

I posted in the “buy sell trade” section, but after no takers for a couple of weeks, was told to try posting my birds for sale on here. You can always try it and see. I think it’s a good idea, because people have to be decently close to be able to pick up live birds anyway.

Thank you!

I understand. Thank you!

Thanks, I’ll try that!

I am moving to Dayton, and I won’t be able to bring my chickens with me. I must either sell them, or eat them. I’ve got 4 1/2 weeks (until October 14) to re-home most of them, before I’ll have to process them for meat. I’d really rather see them go to a good home since most of them are still so...

The corid treatment seems to have worked. Unless it’s a weed they aren’t supposed to eat that I’m unaware of, no. There isn’t anything toxic they could get into. I don’t feed them eggshells, it’s just what’s available for the hens.

That isn’t an option right now. He’s always been perfectly nice to them, so I’m not worried. The hens are a bigger concern, to be honest. Some of them are kinda snots. But the little ones know which hens to avoid.

6 1/2 weeks old. I don’t know if I have merek’s in my flock or not. I gave CORID water, and the little one recovered within 24 hours. I continued giving her that water as recommended, I think 5 days.

Thank you. She’s about 6 1/2 weeks old. In the same pen are 9 others her age, and the broody hen who hatched them. There are 14 hens and one rooster, varied ages, in the pen right next to theirs. The babies are still small enough to be able to squeeze through the fence to visit them.
