It actually looks like I vastly overestimated the weight of my birds, and can mail them for under $200, my next question would be if is 2 day would be ok?
Hello, I'm tentatively looking for a new home for all my chicken family in the NC VA area. These girls are my pets and friends, I've raised them all from babies and they are super friendly and healthy. I'm looking for a new owner who wants to take them in as friends and not food. I have 2 silver...
Hi! Just wanted to pick some brains and see if I'm missing any options. I have 10 chickens, 6 adults and 4 babies. We have to move across the country in a month. Shipping them via express looks like it's about $80 a box, plus the $20 or so For the box, and I love them but I can't afford $700 in...
Hi! I'm on day 20 of my broody chicken sitting on 4 eggs, we had a scare 2 days ago where she sat on the wrong nest of eggs for a few hours and her eggs got cold, but I think they are still ok. She seems to be out enjoying the weather more today than normal though, so I'm debating cooping her up...

But again, I dont refridgerate or oil and my eggs have always taken weeks to go bad. Were it a doomsday situation, I cant imagine that I would have...
... Shes saying shes 98 and hasnt died yet from using butter.
And Im not about to take my super healthy home farmed eggs and soak them in distilled petroleum.
Mine is housed on dirt, and I never clean it full out, Id just scoop the poop under their roost after a couple weeks. But I did recently install a poop board with PDZ, because I was tired of bending over, it works really well. It never stinks though, it has good ventilation, a screen door and a...
