Just be careful if you own chickens, that area doesn't like chicken folk! Why don't you check out Easton, Weston or the backwoods of New Cannan? They are nice small clean towns and nice and private to raise poultry/maybe less strict.

I figured there might be restrictions over in that area. Thank you for letting me know about alternative areas to look at.

Hello fellow CTers! I just posted an ad on Craig's List for 10 of my chickens. They're 12 weeks old. I have 4 BLRW roosters and 4-6 barred rocks and cuckoo marans (all girls). They're all vaccinated for mareks. I just don't have enough room for all of them. Please PM me if you're interested in any or all of them. I would feel much better finding a home for them from a fellow BYCer. I've raised them from day old chicks and I've been procrastinating on finding new homes for them. They're all great birds.

How big are they? I have an 8 week old belgian bearded d'anver bantam who REALLY needs a friend. Are they socialized at all? I am potentially interested if my mom lets me!

I would say they are half the size they're gonna be when full grown. They are socialized. Some like to be picked up while others will come and sit with you. All of them love being talked to and come running over when they see me (probably because they think of me as the treat lady) No one causes any problems. I just have too many.

Hi there from Fairfield County! I'm new to chickens and am totally hooked already.

I might be interested in a Cuckoo Marans Pullet if it turns out I have as many roos as I think I have. I bought 8 chicks and it looks like I have 3 roos. They are about 8-9 weeks old now, I should know for sure soon. I know that there are no rooster restrictions in my town, but 3/8 is not a very good ratio if I want lots of eggs!

Hi CTers!! I am new to the chicken world (the chicks should be here next week) and I like on the shoreline, in the woods. Any advice?

 

[chicken boy sam]

I'm also on the coasts kind of in the woods. What town do you live in? What types of chicks are you getting? I live in the Guilford Madison area. There are lots of great fairs around!!!!

Thank you!! I'm in the Old Saybrook Westbrook area. I'm looking forward to all the fairs this fall! It'll be more fun now that I know about chickens.
