Hi guys. I'm Peggy and I live about 20 miles south of Ithaca, NY. Right now I'm down sizing my girls for the winter, but usually have about 25 to 35 chickens. Fell in love with Blue Cochins, they seem to handle our weather very well. I have a variety of different chickens, BR, Cochins, Royalle Faverole,EE, NHR, white Giant, Wyandotte, Shaver Red, Buff Orp., Austrolorp,Speckled sussex, that's it for now but am always adding more!!!!!roll

So there ARE chicken people around me, huh?  That's good to know!  I am not far from any of you - right down in the Watkins Glen area.  Anyone want a 6mo Silkie roo? lol

"Mom" to 3 boys (15, 10 and 5), my DH :-), a black lab, 2 felines with attitude, 12 fish, one green iguana, one red iguana, 2 Mallard ducks (who had best remember to come back home!), 4 Guineas, 1 Araucana rooster, 3 Cockatiels and 6 Silkies.  Hoping that the Silkie eggs that are in the bator are going to work with me!!

Near Letchworth NY here approx  hour south of rochester! Anyone want to trade eggs/chicks in the spring??

I have pairs of: Giant blue cochins, silver laced wyandottes and cuckoo marans that I plan to isolate and collect eggs from come spring if anyone is interested. Also I have about a dozen guineas I'll have a ton of fertile eggs come warm weather!

I would like to expand my : turkeys, need a red bourbon hen (have a tom)
                                           peafowl (have a white peacock approx 5-6 months old) (available for trade now)
                                           speckled suxxes's (have hens)
                                           partridge cochins (BEAUTIFUL BIRDS only have one hen!)

If anyone is interested in trades, PM me! If you are looking for something else, PM me anyways, my neighbors and Aunt all have chickens too!
