Ok, this is the weekend I have to move all my chickens. I have some place that is willing to take all the laying hens (they have bought about 20 birds from me over the past year). They are willing to keep them forever if we want, or just until we have the ability to take them back.
She also left a voice mail saying she'd take all the babies as well - has lots of people that she can sell them to for us. I don't think she realizes how MANY babies I have.
I THINK I have someone that might be willing to let me set up a coop at their house. I am going to meet with him tomorrow morning, sketch out what I need, and he'll let me know if he is able to help. I'm hoping I can move the babies I want to keep, over to his place, just long enough for me to change my zoning.
As far as the city.....4 years ago I sort of bought this place. Since the builder was my lender, we treated it like a lease option. I finally re-financed and am technically buying it from him (exercising the lease). I should be closing next Wednesday. Once I'm the OWNER of this property, I can try to change my zoning and bring my chickens back.

I've got 6 Cayuga eggs left that haven't hatched. Two have large pip holes and I'm thinking they will hatch tonight. Two more just have their first small pip. Two more have pipped in the last hour but on the wrong end! The last Buff duck was the same way so hopefully these two make it out as well
sobibheard more cows needed and you want Cayuga eggs!! Pm me
I do! I do!!!!!!
Oh, wait. No I don't. Nonononononononononoooooooo....
Thanks so much for sharing - how wonderful!e
Keep us posts (and yes, pics!!!!!)
Me too, so I learned to add a fake egg or two so they would keep using the same nest. Sometimes worked (not always...)
Long busy day, and I need to get the resting chickens into the freezer this evening. I think I might need a nap first - soooooo tired...

Thank you!
I wasn't offered ducks from Liz either.
I don't really want them laying there. However, I would love to know if my Pekin moved her nest, or isn't laying.
I am sure it need time is it fluffy yet?So the duckling is doing good I think, It has this eye that it can open but it's keeping it closed. Help please I'm a worried duck mother right now
