Thought I would try here first before posting to Craigslist. We are in Oak Ridge, NC. 😁 I have three (possibly 4) roosters that need a new home. I hatched this batch of chickens on April 2nd this year, so they are just now coming to maturity. Their dad is Brahma and I believe their mom was a...

I have a cockerel for free looking for a home. Hatched May 25th. Rare breed Crevecoeur.

Hey everyone! I have a Crevecoeur rooster that needs to find his forever home. I hatched this handsome fella on May 25th as part of a classroom hatching project. Was hoping he was a she but alas, the crowing has begun! Crevecoeurs are a rare breed that originated in France. There is currently...

Hello all - its been a while since I have visited this site. We are just now getting back into 'backyard chickening' since we moved three years ago. (Have 7 fluffy butts in the brooder right now). ;-) Even though we have not had our own for three years, I still do a hatching project for one...

Anyone in the Greensboro, NC area have bantam hatching eggs available? Starting a school project this week and would like to source some bantam size. Thank you!

Oak Ridge, NC. Sorry. I posted a New Thread and meant to post only to the NC thread. ;-)

Hi everyone! I am in search of one dozen bantam hatching eggs for a school hatching project. I have plenty average size coming from a few sources but like to show the kids that eggs are all different sizes/colors/etc. They really enjoy seeing the difference in the bantam eggs and chicks...

Google maps says Fayetteville is 2 hrs from me....we are just north of Greensboro.

That would be great! I had someone else lined up that is now unable to donate. I am in Oak Ridge, looks like you are about 2 hours away though.

Hi everyone! I posted back in Feb and introduced myself. My family moved here from Nashville, TN last summer. We have backyard chickens there and loved it! I started doing a hatching project in my kids' elementary classes and will be doing that here at their new school as well. We have...

We live about 5 min from the TSC and are there a lot. My husband actually used to work for their corp offices in TN before we moved. Once you know your pricing and timing, please let me know. Thanks!

Sounds like you have some beautiful birds. I hatched some frizzles with our last project. The kids loved seeing them as their feathers started to curl (I brought them back in to the class after a few weeks). Unfortunately, the frizzles were all roos and in Nashville city limits we could not...

That is what our Wyandotte was. She was beautiful and a great layer! Her name was Goldilocks. That would be so great if you could part with a few eggs. Not sure how far Mebane is from us but a field trip is not a problem! Once I know the exact dates (should know by the end of next week) I...

Hello Everyone! Our family moved to NC this past summer (Oak Ridge). We had backyard chickens in Nashville, TN and are looking to get a small flock (4 or so) started here. Our old flack stayed with our home when they sold which we thought best for the birds. Not as much stress for them, but...
