I have a beautiful sapphire olive egger that turned out to be a rooster. I assume he is a cross between a blue copper Marans (Blue plumage and feathers on legs) and crested cream Legbar (crest). He is not an aggressive rooster at all. While my other roosters have pecked me when I go to pick them...

Hi all,
I'm looking to get some chicks for my newly renovated coop. The local hatchery in Fresno, CA has a 25 chick minimum. I only need 10-12 chicks. Anyone want to split an order?
Wow, what a disaster for the backyard chicken community in California. Just got through reading the SOB post (save our birds) and what struck me was a lot of anger and heart break and little discussion on what is best for the backyard chicken community. And I know this is a sore point for...
I have five Light Sussex cockerals that will be 8 weeks on Mothers Day weekend. We live near Sacramento and <10 minutes from both Hwy 99 and I5 for easy pickups.
These were purchased hatching eggs.
Hi everyone,
We live in Santa Barbara County just below the Thomas Fire burn scar. We got tons of smoke and ash during the fire (we did evacuate including the chickens to another area) but our chickens seemed to be fine afterward with no respiratory problems. Unfortunately, over the past...
Hi,
I have 2 friends that need to re home their flocks in the Arcadia area. One has 3 (2 year olds) and one has 7 (1 year olds). The both have coops and runs that they would sell but the chickens are free. They have all been fed organic diets only. The 7- 1 y/o's are currently laying and the 2...
Hey everyone. I am saddened to say that I have to sell my roo. He is 5 months old and has started crowing. No one has complained yet, but I don't want it to go that far. Local pickup in Tracy, CA 95376 please. Asking $15. I have spent so much more on him than that both with money and love. He is...

Hello, I'm looking to re-home the two healthy adult male button quails that I have raised in the Bay Area (California).
Recently, one of my females have passed away, leaving one of my males lonely. I have to go to college next year and I need help to give these guys a new home!
They have been...
Hello from sunny southern california.
I volunteer at a local animal shelter and I am aware that the Newcastle dieses Is reported back in our neighborhood. I remember last time we saw it in town it killed off all birds in town. None were spared, it was something out of a horror movie. I have an...

Thank you!
Hi,
I'm in the SF East Bay Area and have 5 almost 10 week old chicks. I got 7 chicks when they were 2 to 3 days old. 3 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Speckled Sussex and 2 Rhode Island Reds. 1 BO and 1 SS turned out to be roosters. My town doesn't allow roosters, so I re-homed them yesterday. It was...
Pepper is a beautiful Cuckoo Marans who lays brown eggs with some speckles. Chili is an Ameraucana who lays eggs that are cream-colored. They're both great girls who lay most days. We've had them in our backyard for the last year and a half or so, but with new construction projects going on both...
I'm trying to find someone to get Oregon mini goose eggs from this spring. Any color is fine, but Auto-Sexing preferred. I'm in California.
Please let me know if you might have some and the price plus shipping.

For those of us in California, finding breeders and hatcheries can be more of a challenge, as the most popular breeders and hatcheries are typically located across the country. In this article I will be outlining breeders and hatcheries that are located in California for people that prefer to...
Gorgeous baby chicks for sale. 1 week old. Mother hens are Easter eggers, olive easter eggers, and Ameracanas. Rooster is Black jersey giant. I'm hoping these chicks have deeper blue and deeper green large eggs with this cross. I’ll take back any that become roosters. #babychicks #greeneggs...

He's been great so far with humans including my two toddlers who help with...
