Questons:

Do you still have pullets for sale (Russian Orloffs)?
If you do, what is the cost for them?
Where are you located if I want to buy them?

Thank you.

I'm looking to buy two marans, welsummers or barnvelder hens, aged between 6-12 months. I am looking to add chocolate egg layers to a small flock. Anyone got any available? I am willing to pay well

Hi everyone. While im tecnically la county im up in the high desert all the time. My aunt lives in pinion hills. So im up there at least once a month is not more. Does anyone have any fertle eggs? My hen is broody again. Im not picky but would LOVE crested cream legbars, polish, or lavendar orpingtons. I have a cream legbar roo but no where to set him up to make barnyard babies.

Hello, I'm a Hesperian too. Moved up here in 2010 from DTH ( El Monte to be exact). A few months back, some of my next door neighbor's chickens kept migrating to my backyard that he had to come by to get them. He ended up selling those runaway chickens to me. As I didn't have a chicken coop built in my yard yet, I just let them free-ranging around my acre property. Then one morning when I got out to go feed the chickens, I was shocked to find all of them (4) lying dead on the ground. Twas a very sad scene, I can't even describe how graphic their conditions were. Apparently, some predator came the night before to attack my poor chickens. After that horrible experience, I decided to build a chicken coop which is about done, I just have to build an enclosure for their run. Hope to learn more about chickens here and successfully raising them as I am a total beginner.

I am in the Baldy Mesa area and would like advise. Is it too late in the year to start a coop? Have an area that is part of an old horse stall I am going to close in and build a coop. Thinking it might be too late unless I can find adult chickens. Any advise would be appreciated. Any possible source of chickens also needed.
