I know, which is why he's still here, I was waiting on a couple others to grow up a bit. I've got 2 others I plan to keep now, so he needs to move out or hit the freezer. He's 4 1/2 months now. I'm only asking $8 for him.

I really haven't heard of any peacocks. Most of the time I don't ever hear of any either they just show up. I can't remember a sale that we haven't had any peacocks. Most of them do sale on Saturday though, through the swap.

You can call me Saturday evening and I'll be able to tell you if there are any there for Sunday or not. 417-439-1312 Jason

consignment of peacocks various colors
Just added to the consignment list on the website. You can still call to see what is left over.

As far as prices hens should be from $50 - $80+ depending on color, males by themselves $50-$125 depending on color, pairs would run some where in that range also.

TY.

If I find I can make it I'll call before I head out. I'm afraid the Spring one is your only swap I'll get to frequent though.

Looks like it is going to be a great sale.

I would be interested if I didn't live in city limits which limits me to 3 hens and NO roosters. Thanks! I hope to retire in the near future and move somewhere with more land so I can have more chickens.

I wondered since your locale listed Wichita, but I always listed that even when I lived 45 min out, so thought I'd offer.

I thought you all could have up to 6 hens w/o a permit and up to 12 with a permit. Have they changed something?

Our town doesn't have any limits, but you're not allowed complaints from neighbors. I've got 10 roos currently that I know of, 5 slated for the freezer. Only 2 or 3 of those I think might interest anyone.

The black Ameraucana, a black silkie and a cross I think has some neat coloring.

Hi fondofchicks - I'm near wichita too - but I live in the county so I can have more chickens... and I have 2 roosters... lol

One of them is getting ready to go somewhere else - as he hasn't yet learned to be a good boy - but I have a beautiful one who is actually learning his place - and may have a nice cushy home for a long time...

I have room for about 8 hens total... and only have 3 - so everyone keep an eye out for them for me... lol or I'll hit TSC in spring..

I've seen it addressed two places. The way I understand it is no permit needed at 3, you can get a permit with 4 or 5 and have to have one with 6-12. My home owners association only allows three fowl but they didn't think anyone would interpret that as chickens. One neighbor complained and the HOA came to talk to me. I explained they were domestic pets and confined to my yard. You cannot even see my coop behind my privacy fence. Flight feathers are clipped so the birds cannot get in anyones yard. They make less noise than the dogs in the neighborhood and they don't crap in anyone elses yard like the dogs and cats do. Also they eat pesky bugs in my yard so I don't need harmful pesticides. They then told me okay, we just wanted to make sure you didn't have any roosters.
That was part of the reason why I changed from leghorns to my americanas. Most of my neighbors like my girs and bring their kids and other family over to see them.
