INDIANA BYC'ers HERE!

I have partridge silkies laying up a storm if you wanna take a go at hatching.

I see you live in martinsville as do I. The RK in Bloomington has no minimum on its chicks unlike ours

Hi guys...it's been a while, June it shows, since I've been around...
We've been dealing with not so nice people in our tiny town. Someone got a hold of most of our flock. Found them with broken necks in a pile inside our run. Literally in a pile. My 2 Khaki Campbell ducks were killed at the same time. I'm down to 5 hens and an EE roo that like to roost up high, probably the only reason they weren't hurt. I'm convinced I got word outto the right people that we would be installing locks/cameras and WILL prosecute anyone who steps foot on our property. Have decided not to discuss this with our family because they worry :-\

Thinking about building the flock back up but haven't decided 100% though. No more ducks, for sure. They were my buddies and that hurt the most.
Anyway, anger is *slowly* going away and I need to be around some chicken awesomeness here.
I'll try to stay active and not have such a long absence from here again!

That is terrible!!! I can't even imagine what you have been through. There is such evil in the world.

 

[EmSteele]

The evil in this situation comes from drug use. We are very vocal in our stance against illegal drugs in our town and we are pretty sure this was a little retribution. Can't do anything, legally, because we've only heard talk...no REAL proof (according to local authorities).

All will be well again soon. Just bummed and finally realized this would be a good place to get rid of the chicken blues.

That is horrible! It brings tears chills me to the bone the animal cruelty that has been mentioned the past few days on this thread!

I am so sorry you have had to deal with this. I can't imagine the horror of finding them.

Glad you are back - I have been MIA for quite awhile myself!

I know her and have gotten several birds from her. She comes and goes, but I have always gotten what is owed to me. Just takes forever. I've been trying to get some birds owed to me since before thanksgiving.
