Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

Hey @dheltzel! Mommy just left the nest and my daughter assisted a baby Muscovy that was still trying to get out. Is it 90-95 while they dry off? All this while I was sleeping!

Hi everyone! I hope it's ok to post under this thread, it looks like most of you are from PA.

I'm originally from Philadelphia, but moved away for a bit. My family and I are headed back to the Philly area this fall. I'm looking for information as to where we should look to settle down as we have four hens we are wanting to take with us! We were thinking outside the city. Our kids enjoy 4H and would be devastated to find new homes for their girls!

:frow I can't say where to settle down for sure, but central Pennsylvania is ideal in my opinion. It seems our real estate is reasonably priced, we need more BYC members here too. :D

First, welcome from Cambria county!

I agree with @MotorcycleChick, central PA is an ideal area to search. There's a farm right around the corner from us for sale ;)

I know another reason to pick central PA. Our weather. We don't get the serious storms like other places.
 
Are you still hatching? Interest in chicks was booming here for a while but I'm so glad I stopped hatching when I did. It seems like everyone has gotten their chick fill now. I made a heck of a deal with a lady to get rid of the last of my CCL chicks. (That I wasn't keeping anyway.)

I decided to raise up some for myself from this roo that I got last year. I wasn't sure how his babies would look but I've been pleasantly surprised with the couple that I already kept. Crests need some work since he really doesn't have one but he's bringing a smaller and straighter comb to his daughters that I'm really liking :)
I will have customers wanting chicks all summer and into early fall. I heard the other day that TSC is getting more chicks in for July, so the season is far from over, just slowing down. I will only be hatching chicks to sell every other week, but some of the breeds like bantam Lavender Ams and Silkied Ams, I will continue to hatch as many as I can.
 
Define "kids". Haha! Just kidding. I am well stocked here. How many do you have to find homes for?

Also, have you heard any news on the Brabanters?

My turkey is happy raising the chicks with the three other broodies, but I saw the Tom mating her today a couple of times. When she lays any eggs, they will be going straight into the bator. I would still like a few more female MWs, and I'm sure other people would as well.
I still have a few pretty large hatches coming up. I will be flooding the market for Legbars and Black Sexlinks.

Last I heard the Brabanters are due mid to late June.
