I am in need for a few started pullets... demand for eggs has grown and we lost several of the chicks that we bought this spring. I also need to cull the older hens that are eating but not laying. I need heavy layers but not "production" chickens. They eat too much feed...
I live in Maury...
Thanks
Thank you.. I'll check them out. The one I am thinking of was closer to the Dickson area, but this one is just as far away from us... so it may not matter..LOL
I am looking for a grain mill nearby. About a year ago my husband and I were driving around and saw one somewhere between Dickson and Waverly (I think..LOL) But I don't remember the name. Does anyone know of one in the Mid Tn area?
Thanks

Well, I have lots of egg layers and I was taking more for the 2 RIR and Amer that she had.. I kinda figured it wasn't a white orp. I knew they got them at TSC and they didn't have those.
Thanks.. I guess hubby will have to do the deed.....
A friend. Called and said her HOA informed her No Chickens! So she asked if I would take them. They are 18 was old. She said one was a white Orp. Well we picked it up yesterday and I think it is an oversized cornish cross... A very LARGE cornishX.... What say ye?
Ugh. Trying to post this...
Anyone here raise quail??? We are looking at raising them for meat, but were hoping to get some local to get started with.
Hubby will be building cages as soon as school is out for summer. Any ifformation would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks!! I picked up 10 EE pullets at TSC....my people love the blue eggs, shoot they just love opening the carton to see what fun colors they are getting!!!. I'll use the Maran...maybe throw an EE in there with them.
I am really not wanting to sell chickens, we sell the eggs. I have no problem having mixed breeds... I think they make some of the best looking birds..
Thanks

Hey all I have a question..... My husband is wanting to "make our own chickens". Which is a YAY for me..I've been wanting to try it for awhile. Right now we have 41 eggs that have to go in lockdown today. I had a nightmare that i had 41 roos!!! But here is my question.
We want to set up...
I think I have a broody hen...she has been sitting in that box for over a week... I think I want her to hatch the eggs, just to see.... The kids would like it. What should I do to make her comfy? Right now I have 20 month old chicks in the broody pen, I guess by the time she hatches, I should...

I have a mixed flock. I love the look of it. I got mine from a guy in Franklin. Asked for all pullets and got 2 roos out of 10. Not too bad for a non professional...lol. I found him on Craigslist
We
we picked up 15 today..... Yikes.. Plus my oldest picked out another mystery banty....looks like a mini EE..
One of the CMs that you sold to me is a roo.... I think I am going to put him in with my EEs next spring... We got a few at TSC today.... Any idea what I will end up with??? DH is...
That makes total sense, we have been gettin huge eggs since the CM's started laying, my dad felt sorry for them... We cracked open 3 of them this morning and they were all double yolks.
