    In tears, rehoming my flock

    Thanks so much for the kind responses! You are so right about going through an emotional rollercoaster with this move. I don't handle change very well and change is being thrust at me right and left. This was our first year with chickens and I raised them all from a few days old. There are...

    In tears, rehoming my flock

    I have posted about this before, how we are moving to Florida from S. Illinois and I wanted to take my 25 pullets and roo but decided not to due to the state's tough regulations about bringing in poultry. I found 2 good homes for them, and just sent my roo and 5 pullets off to a great home...

    Starting Over--a new flock after our cross country move

    Thanks tadpole98 and puglady! Chicks are what I really would like to go with. If I do go with older birds I would only get from one source and not mix flocks. My problem now is ordering chicks through the mail I would have to go with larger numbers than I want ordering them this time of year...

    Starting Over--a new flock after our cross country move

    Well it looks like we will be rehoming our pullets and roo before our upcoming move from southern Illinois to the Tampa Florida area. I am really sad about it as I have come to love my flock of 25 girls and their guy. I really wanted to take them but after researching what needed to be done...

    Moving to Florida-want to take my flock

    Thanks operationindigo. I appreciate the advice and we may just do that. I am thinking more and more that they might well be going with us. As I think my friend is backing out of the deal. I have been trying to go the legal route but can't even find anyone locally that does the pullorum...

    Thank you lisa! I wish the you best of luck as well! Unfortunately it looks like I may be having to leave my flock with my friend......... I have done lots of research and it appears that I would have to test them for pullorum typhoid which isn't an easy proposition. There is no way that I...

    Pullorum testing and an upcoming move to Florida

    I just need some information regarding how difficult this testing is to get done--as it appears that to legally transport our flock to Florida where we are moving next month I need to have an NPIP on all my birds. I still haven't made the decision whether to rehome them with a friend or take...
