Yes I have several, I am giving one away tomorrow. I am actually 12 miles south of Strasburg so a little closer to Elizabeth. Give me a call 720-309-8455. If I don't answer please leave a message. The nicest looking one of the bunch is a blue.

Update on the chickens!
All are doing really well except we lost 2 including the one that was missing toes. He seemed fine one minute and the next he was gone. I believe he was suffering from a respiratory infection. The rest are all in their new coops and thriving. Thank you for all the advice...
I have 4 white bantam roosters for free. I am in colorado, 12 miles south of Strasburg. Send me a message and come get them! They were part of a large rescue and now are in good health, just too many roosters.
Okay the silkie with the worst feet, actually missing one is looking reall.awful. I washed it's feet well with dawn and covered in bag balm.I put dewormer in it's water and dusted it. I brought it in the house and it's in the bathroom since it's going to be very cold and snowy. It can't stand up...
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
Their feet look like they are crusted together? Does that make sense? Almost like giant clogs of proud flesh.

I have a large white chicken (the heavy layer kind from McMurray's) who got out of the coop over a week ago. My faithful dog was trying to help put her back? He doesn't like any of the livestock not being where they should be. She lost many of her tail feathers and half of her neck feathers. She...

I hadn't thought about that. I was going to just put it on the side. I have that 32 feet there on one side that is open, half right now is being used by pigs and the other side is a horse shelter which they never use. However, I could possibly put the coop inside the barn and the run as...
I finally finished the coop part and managed to finish my peace symbol on the side (priorities). Below is a picture of the space I have available and I am needing to figure out where to set the coop and a run. You can see from the pictures that I have a lot of room, the large barn door faces...
I wanted to share a really nice story that my father in law had passed on to me. He is a pilot with a major airline.
In coach they had a young man returning home from Iraq. The flight attendant made her usual announcement at the end of the flight when they were landing and acknowledged the...
