Can I keep a pair of pigeons in the chicken yard with my bantam hens? We have lots of room. Would I have to have separate housing? Thanks! Peigi

Hi Everyone! I'll be at the ChickenStock if it's next Sunday, for sure. On the "wanted" list, I'm still looking for a buff brahma or two, and a bantam barred rock (pullets/hens only). Please PM me if you have those, would love to pick them up. Thanks! Peigi

I'm in Southern NH and looking for (hens only): Std: Silver Laced Polish; Bantam: Mille Fleur D'Uccle; Buff Brahma; and Barred Rock. Anyone with any leads, please help! Thanks so much! Peigi p.s., if this isn't an OK use of the thread or forums, please let me know -- I'm new here...
