Hi! It's been a while since I posted. Hope everyone survived the hot, hot summer. I lost a couple older hens this summer - I think it was just too **** hot for them. I'm interested in the poultry swap as a way to get rid of some roosters...
Has anyone here ever sold their roosters to Geren's...
Hi to all the new people! I am probably new to all because I go through long periods of not posting a thing. Anyway, thought I'd duck in and see what's new around here!
Hey Ekim - where in SEPDX are you? I'm assuming outside the limits of any city ordinances limiting you to 3 chickens. I'm in...
You said it! We're really in the barnyard mutt business, occasionally I adopt a "retired" hen of a specific breed from Zenger Farm, but one of these days I might have to break down and get myself a couple Lavender Orps.
Welcome, Newbies! I'm not a frequent poster on BYC, but it has come in...
OMG I love your girls! And I would absolutely take them off your hands if we had room. Actually, we would have room if I can find homes for two roos...
We're looking to rehome two roosters from a brood we hatched out on September 11, 2011. Of the five chicks, we netted two pullets and three...
Hey Portland Area chicken folk - Concentrates is selling 5-gal buckets of feed-grade unfiltered ACV. I mentioned that it was probably more cost effective than using my own Braggs, and she told me it is actually from Braggs.

I like Burns on Orient Dr. in Gresham. Barton is OK, but I don't like how their chicken and duck room smells. They will take roosters in, though, and even pay you a bit for them.
Is Naomi's gone then? I knew they were trying to stay - I guess the lesson is don't build your building on...
I haven't been there yet. I was a Naomi's Organic Farm Supply groupie until they lost their home. I work in the Pearl, but live out in Clackamas, so I've been exploring feed stores in the sticks (Estacada, Barton, Eagle Creek) as well. I also quite like Concentrates for close in and Foster Feed...

Thankfully, reintegration went perfectly! We brought the little chick out at night when momma and babies we're settled in. I set her down by momma, and she ran back to me (surrogate momma!), but then Weezy (momma) started doing her broody momma, "cluck-cluck-cluck come here you" and the...
Holy cats I just blazed through the Nan(do) thread - what a saga!! That is one mixed up little chicken, and about the sweetest thing I have ever seen! I hope you're able to keep him, it would break my heart to have to let him go after all of that. Crap, our broody hatched out a little over a...
I can't believe I just found this thread. Hi there! We live on 6.5 acres in what is technically now referred to as Happy Valley but my bf didn't incorporate so we remain in Clackamas. So YAY we can (and do!) have roosters! We constructed our coop and run out of raw materials salvaged mostly from...
