Looking for Chickens for sale in Gettysburg PA area

[Henny Penny Mom]

Hello,

I recently moved to the Gettysburg PA area and looking for some older ready to lay chickens within an hours drive (to pick up)

I am open to a variety of breeds and like the friendlies rather than flighty varieties. I have lots of assorted breeds in the past, and due to my move have to start fresh with a new flock. I'm thinking of picking a fun breed and trying to keep my lines pure (ha ha- I do LOVE my old mixed chickens). I am an experienced chicken person and right now have only my 3 peacocks I moved with me from Ontario Canada to PA.

I am new to posting and couldnt find anything listed in my "area" . Is there a place on the forum that you can search local listings ? I searched Gettysburg, but only a few posts came up and nothing "for sale". If any experienced users can point me in the right direction that would be great.


Thanks so much-

Maybe Will Marrow of MD would be able to help you.

We are planning on going to Gettysburg this June/July events and I sure hope it is not going to be too hot!

Go to Craigslist Pennsylvania and check out the York area. There were some quality Orpingtons advertised occassionally.

Have you found any chickens? I live in Gettysburg and would like to get 5-6 chickens as soon as it gets a bit warmer. I know nothing about rasing them for eggs only.
Do you think I should get older ones? I would love any advice.
What kind I should get?
Coop?
Do they go in coop on there own at night?
