Hi all,
I'm feeling a little down so I figured I would ramble a little. I raised 9 sweet Buff Orpingtons from baby chicks purchased in January. We only have a permit to own 8 chickens, but delayed getting rid of the odd egg in case one turned out to be a rooster, in case one had trouble laying, etc, etc.
Well they all turned out beautiful, friendly and great layers. A week ago I saw an add on CL from a lady looking for hens for her little boy. I messaged her and we just met up. I gave her one of my golden girls. The little boy was very excited, and described his other chickens to me - two barred rocks. One sounds kind of aggressive.
I hope she's okay. I hope the new owners have a nice coop, and I hope she gets spoiled by the little boy. I hope the other two chickens don't beat her up. I hope the urban predators don't hurt her. I hope she's doing okay in a strange place tonight.
I know I did the right thing. If someone complains, I'd rather be following the city ordinances than not. I told the lady if anything happens to please give her back to me.
