Hi, everyone. I am a soon-to-be chicken person in the fabulous Florida Keys. I was raised in a rural area and am not new to poultry but never though I'd have a little flock here in the Keys. We are picking up the girls tomorrow afternoon and bringing them to their southernmost domicile to be...

Good Morning Friends, Still new here. Wasn’t sure if my question was appropriate in the buy, sell and trade section therefore I decided to post here. My little chicken little Betsy I think is going to maybe need a female friend. I was thinking a pullet rather than a chick. She is a bantam...

I have 3 bearded silkie roosters in need of a new flock. All hand reared, sweet but can be shy. Buff, Black, Partridge, and potentially a White. About 6mo old. Bought straight run, 7 of 11 chicks ended up being roosters 😭.

Hey y’all I live in urban south Florida and I have 2 hens! I wanted to know if anyone knows about what possible predators there could be around here. When I say urban I mean like city I’m nowhere near any wildlife areas so I know I don’t have to worry about bears or anything. I’m concerned about...

Howdy. I'm a young married man who relatively recently bought his first house and started a huge garden and then one morning his wife saw an ad on Offer up for $10 Silkie chicks, and now we have 5 chickens of varying ages and only half a clue about what we're doing. I've had a parrot for...

Anyone knows where to buy guineas in South Florida? I'm looking for retail sales, not wholesale.

I am interested in doing the Deep Litter Method in my run. I live in South Florida and have been experiencing a large amount of rain this summer; just a bit more than usual. My run is pretty muddy and instead of filling in the water-recessed areas with more dirt, I would like to get some insight...

I have a showgirl rooster that needs a home as soon as possible. I have been told that he has the naked neck and the frizzled feather gene which is why he looks so unique. I was really hoping he was a girl but he started crowing this morning for the first time, so definitely a rooster. I am...
