We live in Desert Hot Springs, California and we thought we were on the outskirts of the city limits....it turns out we aren't and we have to now rehome our 3 red sex-link hens, 1 white rooster of unknown breeding, 3 large Pekin ducks and 1 Mallard. All are female but the rooster and they are as tame as ducks and chickens can be. They eat from the hand, and they aren't violent or mean. They haven't started laying eggs yet; we bought the chicks back in April, so it should be soon as we've been feeding them layer feed for about 3 weeks. Our granddaughter is heartbroken as she has bonded with each one of them, so I have promised I would find them a home that wouldn't eat them for dinner and that would be kind to them. We will be happy to transport them to you, or if you have a truck (we don't) and you have a way to transport them, we'd be happy to reimburse for gas to pick them up. We aren't asking for any money; only the promise that they will be well cared for. Please email me at [email protected] if you are interested. We only have 13 days to find them homes (we've been trying to find them a home without BYC - now I am trying here because I'm getting desperate) so please let us know asap...thank you from the bottoms of our hearts.
