I have a flock of 18 chickens, 5 male and 13 female, that needs a new home. I am moving after my divorce and won't be able to take them with me. They range in age from 2 to 8 years old, though most are from 2 to 4 years old. Breeds are Ameraucana, Easter egger, light Brahma, black australorp...

I will look for thr asprin thread! That should help make her feel better, and I will position a heat lamp nearby tonight. Probably warm enough right now, but maybe thats why she was laying down this morning. Is it common for breeds used for meat to sleep standing up? Her legs are in perfect...

Our family was driving home from Holiday world yesterday when we saw a chicken sitting on the side of the road! As we drove along looking for a place to turn around, we saw 8 more dead chickens along the road. She appears to be young and she's VERY heavy so I assume she was bound for slaughter...

Is it possible that the one who died was sticky then?

I had 2 eggs hatch today (day 20) and 4 more have pipped. My incubator is currently at 100° with 79% humidity. The first two hatched around 12 hours after they pipped, but a third one who had zipped half way around her egg died. Now i am very worried for the others who pipped sometime this...

We have a light brahma mix cockerel looking for a new home. I am not certain if he is mixed with one of our easter eggers or a sussex because he looks just like his daddy. He was hatched out by a local kindergarten class and was the only boy. He was initially raised indoors with his sisters and...

No problem all. I will get them on a higher protein food and extra vitamins so the babies should be nice and healthy. Oh, and how many eggs do you want? Could you send me a private message on here, and I can give you my phone number. Do you mind if I ask which school you work at? My youngest...

I could provide some, if you'd like. Are you looking for turkey or chicken eggs? I only have the one jenny, but she did start laying again already. Her fertility has looked good too. I also have chickens as well as the turkeys. I have several easter egger hens that lay green, blue, and pink...

By the way, I apologize for taking so long to respond, I am a flight attendant, so I am in and out all the time. I will check again tonight when I get to the hotel :)

I am on the east side of Indianapolis, very close to 465 & I70 and 465 & 65 north. If you want to mapquest it, 3400 shadeland ave, Indianapolis, 46226 will put you at the nearest intersection. :-)

Sorry about that, but I have never shipped before and am afraid to.

Still available

According to mapquest it would be a three and a half to four hour drive from Swanton, OH to Indianapolis, IN. Hope that helps. :)

I am looking to re-home our Beltsville White turkeys. We really want them to go to a good home and want to avoid them becoming dinner if possible. They are both almost one year old, friendly, and get along well with our chickens. The jenny began laying a couple of months ago, but stopped when...
