    FLORIDA!!!!!ALWAYS SUNNY SIDE UP!!!

    Hi all, my 13 week old Speckled Sussex decided to crow this morning. I am not allowed roosters where I live in Miami, FL. Any ideas where I can take him? I posted on craigslist with no luck.

    Thank you. This makes me feel better. The comb has always been pretty pink and never tiny compared to some of my other breeds that have a single comb. This is a picture from about 4 weeks back.

    Spring 2017 first timers post!

    Chicks have arrived! I ordered 2 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Easter Eggers, and 1 Cuckoo Maran. I received an extra chick that I'm assuming is another Easter Egger.

    My first hens

    Thank you! These will be egg layers for personal use and they will end up being pets as well :) I am considering the Ameraucana and would also be happy with an Easter Egger. I'm also considering a Legbar if I can find one and maybe a Wyandotte or Barred Rock. I love Marans but am of their...
