    Trying to re-home 3 laying hens - Kirkland, WA (FREE)

    Trying to re-home 3 laying hens - Kirkland, WA (FREE)

    Quote: I'd love to take in one of your hens. I recently had to rehome a rooster (that we were expecting to be a hen) and have a "vacancy" over here in Kirkland. I'm looking for a good egg producer and it looks like you've got quite a few. I have a Delaware and RIR hen that are both about 15...
