Eastern Tennessee Thread

[tnchickenut]

Hello East Tennessee!

Been gone a bit... I don't really do BYC all that often.... anywho... anyone interested in some started Delaware broilers... let me know. I got to take some roosters out of the mix and the sooner the better. They are Will Morrow's... not mine. Of course, I'll keep a few of the more promissing ones to see what they become breeding wise, but some can go now.

Few other birds I'll find homes for too... I'm trying to narrow it down to a few select breeds to really work with.

Hope everyone is doing well... rain tommarrow... more mud! yay!

Do you ever sell pullets ready to start laying? I'd love to add a couple of Delewares to my mix, but don't want to try to raise chicks. Went to sell at Amish farm in March, but by the time we got there they had a sorry lot left.

Does anyone have black copper marans , I'm looking for atleast one laying hen or pullet

kcsunshine, how old do you want your pullets to be? I am raising chicks right now for people I work with and am in Oak Ridge, I could possibly raise some delawares for you depending on age you want them to be

I like them to be almost ready to lay. That's what I liked about getting them from the Amish in the Spring - I've had them actually lay an egg on the way home. They did have some young Easter Eggers left in March. I may go back next weekend and see if they're still there - they'd be 4 weeks older by now.

Thanks for the offer.
