Hi from PFLUGERVILLE TX

[deniseojohnson]

Just joined. I have 3 hens but have to rehome them due to a complaint. Grew up with all sorts of animals. Wanted to try backyard chickens as a hobby for myself and my 5 yr old. We incubated eggs from my sister and hatched 6 chicks. Kept 3. The others went back to my sister in LA. We love our hens and would love to keep them but it’s just not possible right now.

Hello and Welcome to BYC. I'm so sorry you have to give them away. We have a "Right to Farm Act" which protects us in some situations.

Welcome to BYC!
I'm sorry that you can't keep your hens. Can they go to your sister's place?

That’s where they will go it I can’t find them a local home this weekend. It’s an 8 hour drive so I was hoping not to have to do that. But we will

I'd love to help you out, but I'm almost at capacity again and I have broodies sitting on eggs, as well as a few in the incubator.
Your around 3 hours from my area, so it may not be an option, but I do have friends with chickens. I can text to see if any of them want more hens.
I hope you have a taker in your area.
A friend of my dil, rehomed her hens, on a site called "next door neighbors" or something like that, in Austin. Good luck!
