Hi! I am just getting back to being active on here - moved to Mexico NY (North of Syracuse/E. of Oswego) right before the snow hit in Nov. What have you got, to swap or otherwise? I would love to meet like-minded chicken obsessed folks locally. By the way, how does one pm on here now...- CatMom

Now under 5+ feet of yummy Lake Effect snow! (I moved from Binghamton to between Oswego & Syracuse) Holy fajitas people...- CatMom

Hardy, friendly chickens recommendations...
I think Lazy Gardener was referring to the vlog "Swedish Homestead" & if you haven't already seen it you should check it out! Here's a recent one concerning their Chickens ~ Also, I see a lot of folks recommended EE's/Easter Eggers. Just so there's no confusion I love Easter Eggers I have had...- CatMom

Ny-chicken-lover chickenstock '17
Hey there, just catching up -again- thanks! Yes the chaos only gets deeper here, as the paperwork keeps getting closer to the signing. And yes, there's a homemade henhouse with fenced run aleady onsite as the previous owner had about a dozen birds, and that's a big reason I decided to make an...- CatMom

Dang! I had it on my calendar and everything! It is a really crazy time here too though and I had limited success trying to get my housemate/helper excited about driving me out to a chick-a-holic gathering in the hot weather. Still, I'll be moving this Autumn to Mexico, NY, near Syracuse and...- CatMom

I would like to getin on that too. I am hoping to sign on a house with 4 1/2 scrubby acres in Mexico, NY - North of SYR, in the next month. Next year I too will be looking for a tick-eating army to assist the urban flock of chickens I currently have. ~Trish- CatMom

Runt Ameraucana chicken needs home
Damn. I would like to, but I'm in Upstate NY. I wouldn't normally suggest shipping such a stressed out bird... Though, if you find out how to ship an adult bird & consider it as an option, let me know the cost of shipping & I'll tell you if I can swing it I am trying to get together a flock of...- CatMom

She's been broody for almost 5 weeks!
Hooray! This has been my go-to solution as well, even at several weeks brooding, sticking fertile eggs under the hen seems like the best 'natural' choice. Waterboarding" my hens in the past has disturbed me at least as much as it did them. I have tried that "ice bucket challenge" version on a...- CatMom
