I would like to hear some funny or crazy chicken stories! Here is my favorite, when I first decided to buy chickens I bought one cochin hen and one OEG Rooster. I wanted them to be free range. When I got the chickens home, the hen stayed in the barn and the rooster went crazy and flew right...

Beautiful Red/Black OEG Rooster located just South of Tallahassee, Florida. Excellent breeder and producer. Does very well as a free range bird. $25

I was wondering what success breeders have had breeding and selling ornamental chickens. I have some very nice cochins, d'uccles, sultans, and polish that I would like to breed next spring and sell. What are some other breeders ideas for marketing the birds to the right buyers? This year, we had...

Hello! I would love to find someone with bantam barred or mottled cochins in North Florida, South Georgia/Alabama. I live around Tallahassee, so anywhere within a 2-3 hours drive would be nice. Thank you!!!!

I guess so, he is a real wierdo! I usually stomp at him and then chase him away.

Peeper, Thank you for your help. I will look around for anything like that, but I am really good about keeping things like that up. I have three dogs and three cats, so I make sure that there isn't anything like that around. I was thinking if it is anything they are getting from the yard, it...

My Mille Fleur D'Uccle is very pretty, but he can be pretty nasty sometimes. I have these pink muck boots that I wear in the barn, and he has attacked me three times when I wear them. Nothing too agressive, just tries to spur me I think. Everytime he does it so quickly I don't get a chance to...

I have lost three chickens over the last few months. First was Little Jerry, who I think had an impacted crop or something. The next chicken to die was Shelby. She was a rescue chicken and was probably more than five years old, so I think it was just her time to go. Yesterday morning, my...

LOL!! That is too cute!! I love cochins!!!

I placed the order last week, Tuesday I think. MPC sent me an email and called me on Saturday notifying me that they would be here this week between Tuesday-Thursday. I received them yesterday morning. I live about 30 miles away from Tallahasse so it is not like I live in a big city either, so I...

I placed an order with them early this year. I ordered bantam mille fleur and porcelain d'uccles, golden-laced cochins, and sultans. I was very happy with the order. I think I received around 25-27. All arrived alive but I did have one die a few days later (he was very small, I don't think he...

The EE's are so cute! They have the sweetest faces! They are really puffy. They sent me three different colors so I am excited to see how they turn out.

This morning I received my mixed bantam assortment and three easter eggers from My Pet Chicken! I could not be more pleased with their health! They are all very bright and healthy. As soon as I put them in the brooder, they were running and jumping around, eating and drinking. They are very...

I ordered some polish chicks from My Pet Chicken last week. The website stated that they would not be available until September or later, I just got an email this morning stating that they would all be here next week. I would just call the hatchery and talk to them first, then just consider...

I would not worry about them flying over the fance at all, I have over a dozen free range birds and that has never been a problem. Like mentioned before, they like to stay within range of the coop so if something happens they can make a run back to it. I would keep the food in the coop if you...

I love my bantys! They are so much fun to have, the hens lay great and are great broodies. I think that for people who are interested in keeping birds for fun and for egg production for themselves, they are a great choice. They are so entertaining and fun to look at. I have a few full sized...

63. If you judge every empty box you see by how many chicks you could brood in it, you might be a chicken farmer 64. Hopefully this one wasn't posted before, I didn't get to read them all. You might be a chicken farmer if you plan coops accordingly to breed. I just placed an order for all...

Does anyone know about any upcoming poultry shows in Florida, Georgia, or Alabama? I know that the fairs sometimes have a poultry tent. I would love to go to an all poultry event. Thanks!!

Another vote for cochins. They are so sweet!
