Arkansas folks speak up.........

I am just getting started and not comfortable trying to raise baby chicks. I have a bantam Old English rooster in one run with 2 OE hens and 5 standard size and Silkies are in the other with a rooster Does anyone have some 4 month or older standard pullets for sale? I am afraid of big roosters.

I would suggest you acquire some exhibition quality large fowl Orpington or Cochin chicks or hatching eggs. By the time you have spoiled the chicks and they have grown into huge giant roosters, they will be so attached to you and you to them, you would not be afraid.
 
I am in Murfreesboro.

Welcome. Nice to see someone from my side of the state. Gets lonely in the corner. LOL

Hi everybody! I'm not in Arkansas, but pretty close. I just started out with chickens this month. Got some Delaware and Silkie chicks on the 11th and then 4 RIR hens on the 18th. I lost my first chick (silkie) a few days ago. I'll tell you right now I have a lot of learning and toughening up to do. Anyway, I thought I'd post and invite you northern Arkansas peeps to join the Chicken Swap of Missouri facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/225021300913860/. I travel to Little Rock, Harrison, and Eureka Springs pretty regularly, so I'd love to see some people from Arkansas in the group.
