List of possibilities!! AKA Enabler list

19hhbelgian
- cochin/serama crosses (roos and hens)
- a black OE hen named Chatter. I love this little girl, but I just don't need her and am hoping she can find a new wonderful home
smile.png

- Blue Marans cross chicks
- Showgirl roos
- Cuckoo polish roo (bantam)
- gold laced/WCblack polish roo - this guy needs a special home as he is a bit of a special needs bird. He is VERY timid and does not do well with other roos that can be rough. His head is bald on the back from being pecked when I tried incorporating him into the main flock, & his tail leans to one side. Poor guy looks sad, but he gets around well enough, and eats/drinks just fine. I've had him since he was a day old chick. Right now he's in with my polish/seramas and is doing well, but those birds are also very easy to get along with

I have got to get my breeder pens back to where they need to be, so the "odd ball" birds need to find new homes.

Chicken stalker:
- 2-3 Lavender/Split Lavender Ameraucana Breeding Pairs
- 2-3 Wheaten Ameraucana Breeding Pairs
- 1 White Ameraucana Pair...maybe
- 1 Silver Ameraucana Pair...maybe

Chickie Mamma:
- 1 dozen white crested duck eggs (for the auction),
- 1 dozen white silkie/showgirl eggs,
- silkie chicks (white/showgirl)
- maybe some B/B/S chicks??
- I was planing on bringing some ducklings, but ONLY if they are wanted (Pure white crested/ non crested pekins) and Cayuga mixes. Traveling almost 4 hours with ducklings in the back, won't be pretty, and I don't want to have to come home with them
