OK, so she didn't know it wasn't spring. I have a mother hen with four (now almost four week old) chicks. They are looking for a new home. This is for no other reason than that our flock is getting too large and I need to thin the herd, so to speak. These are straight run chicks although I'm thinking they may be all hens. I can't get a good picture because of lighting in their pen in our barn, but I will keep trying. They are looking for a chicken friendly new home. There are 2 white ones with black spots, one black one, and one black and gray one, although of course, they will change some as they feather out to adult plumage. Mama is white with black spots. She is a Lakeshore Egger cross with feathered legs, which means that she carries the gene to lay colored eggs, and if I remember right, hers are olive green. Her chicks will also carry that gene, most likely. The chicks are old enough to tolerate cold, but they have a heater panel and a heat light for warmth, as well as their mom, so they would need at least an insulated coop for a while longer. We have an extra cockerel too if you want him to complete the flock. He's very pretty and gentle to people. Again, just too many guys for the flock. I would like to get $5.00 for all but price is negotiable....sigggh. Please PM if interested!
