It is illegal to transport and to relocate them in the state of Ohio. I have never heard of a case being prosecuted. Please don't do it near me.

 

They are not bad creatures and we are the intruders. That said, if you refuse to kill them or move them, you WILL suffer loss.

 

Good Luck,

I'm with you Shawn, I feel raccoons are nasty, violent killers. Buzzards need to eat too.

To my chicken loving friends! I'm on the hunt for a (some?) partridge silkie pullets. Hoping to find some BQ/SQ in the Central Ohio area, although I've driven all over the countryside to pick up silkies and I'm willing to do it again  Thanks fellow Buckeyes!

Hello fellow Buckeyes!  Wondering if anyone would be interested in trading a rooster for a hen before my neighbors don't like me anymore      He is about 3-4 mos old and I believe he is what they call a leghorn. Thanks!
