    Mottled Black Tom?

    Anyone in the Maryland/Northern VA/South Central or East PA area have a Mottle Black Tom they want to get rid of. Only one of our 8 poults survived last spring and she is one sad girl right now. She keeps laying down in front of me. Thanks! Wysteria

    Rooster Unable to "Hit the Mark"

    I have watched and watched and watched. He never seems to achieve a kiss. It's amazing really. At first I just thought he was un-coordinated. But he tortures the girls. Gets off because he can't seem to achieve what his biology is telling him he should be achieving and starts courting again...

    Narragansett Chicks/Eggs

    I'm on the hunt! I'm looking for Narragansett chicks. I have emailed a number of people in my ALBC yearbook with no luck! Anyone with eggs, I have my heart set on this bird. I would like to get a breeding pair going but would just like to get started with the birds! Thank you! namaste...

    The American Hollands Chicken Thread & Census

    Hi Everyone - I'm just dropping in to introduce myself. I am relatively new to chickens but by the good graces of Jen (jenjscott) my husband and I are being gifted the opportunity to participate in saving this breed (which I have fallen in love with through reading about them). I am really...
