    Howdy! It's been a bit since I've been back to this account. I've scanned relevant info from time to time in the past 6 (wow!) years, but haven't been very active. It's a shame, too. But, I'm back! Yay? Based on the above, you can figure that I'm not *new* to chickens. Our first flock was...

    Trade or Sell Blue Andalusian Rooster

    I have two young (10 week) beautiful Andalusian Roos. That is two too many. I'm not going to continue with this breed. These boys were hand fed, so they are about as friendly as this breed can get. They are starting to pick on each other, and that's with 10 acres of free range and 16 ladies. I...

    BYC reader finally registers saying, "Hi"

    Hello all! I've had chickens for almost a decade, mostly Easter eggers and a few Jersey giants and one Island Red rooster that's a bit slow in the head(it seems). Usually I just buy live chicks to refresh the DNA pool but I had some experience in the past at incubating but not much. Hopefully I...

    Young cancer patient in Texas

    Just wanted to share this. We should contact our city representatives and tell them to vote for letting us keep 6 chickens in the city. Also, may we pray for her and every patient in the world so that he brings them peace in comfort in the mist of their battle.
