    Heritage Breed Turkey-Hen

    Hi, just wanted to let you know that we did head up and get the three hens you saw in the CL ad. The facility was lovely and Happy Valentine's Day to our tom, apparently! Thanks for mentioning it!

    Heritage Breed Turkey-Hen

    Thanks. I did see that. It's about 2 hours from us but we might just need to make the trip up that way. Looks like a decent possibility if we cannot find one closer. Seems as though everytime I find one in the general vicinity that needs to be re-homed, they have literally just sold her! Very...

    Heritage Breed Turkey-Hen

    We have a Red Bourbon tom that needs a friend and are looking for a heritage breed hen in the southern Virginia area (or northern NC). They will be free-range with our chickens and guinea fowl on our organic farm. I only put $1 on the price on the ad because the form required something and I...

    Still have free quail roosters - Richmond, Va

    Hello. Do you still have the roos and if so, how many? I know someone who might be interested in one or two. She's only as far as Dinwiddie, so not far.

    Help! My turkey got killed by wild turkeys!

    I am so sorry to hear about your tom. We have one female turkey that follows us around the yard and "supervises" our work. She also will not roost up for the night until all the chickens and guineas have done so and stays by the stragglers until they go to bed, so to speak. I do understand how...

    Mute Swans 3 Polish & 3 Royal-Wilsons, VA

    Three Royal and three polish swans for sale. Born this spring (2013). $100 each or 6 for $500. We would like to have all 6 go together to a nice home with a pond, or at least the Royal go together and the Polish stay together. Very sociable.

    Looking for Young Female Mute Swan

    Actually, turns out they are not truly "mute" but they do make a beautiful soft whistling sound. I am not sure what sounds they make as an adult, but that is what I am hearing from them now.

    Virginia

    We do keep the cat away from any young chicks we are raising, as we aren't sure if there would be an issue there. If the chicks or keets are with the mamas, she doesn't try to take them on and thus leaves the babies alone. I am sure there are cats a bit braver, but fortunately, we don't have...

    We have a couple of roosters I have seen go after the cat....needless to say, our cat has never been a problem, thankfully.

    What time in the morning do you let your chickens out of the coop?

    We haven't set it up yet, but I think it will work well. We're re-designing the coop in general, so that will be one of the new features.
