I have twelve chickens and one rooster. I also have a baby peacock. I'm hoping to swap the rooster and peacock at the livestock swap in Pearl River or through the swap pages here on BYC, not because I want to, but because I don't want neighbors upset about the noise.

Ron just brought in our favorite chicken she was dead her neck was broken. She was the little bantam we took home because I wouldn't leave her a the store without a flock. She was more pet than livestock.

RIP Pipen.

Oh Sweetie, I'm sorry.

We don't mean to , but we can become soooooo attached.

I'm in Slidell. I'm not looking for more what's the reason you want to get rid of them? What breeds do you have? What age are they? Pam

Welcome to our thread. I'm out of Shreveport. A little far to pop in for a coffee.

I have 34 chickens. and 2 batches of eggs in or about to be in. The eggs are 14 good big white rocks. They are supposed to grow big. And my prize is a doz SG Dorking eggs coming about the 25th. Horstman and Urch. I'm gonna be busy.
Today, folks, just about killed myself. I trimmed feathers on 6 of my 7 wk old males and 4 of my 3 wk old males and put them in a 3' x 12' growout pen. Some pecking going on but I spent an hour squirting with the hose any meanies. Not perfect but I'd gotten advice to put them together sooner than later. I have 2 more small males to trim and add tomorrow. Then we'll start on the girls. I'll have about 12 girls of both ages to add to my 4' x' 6' kennel coop. I'm thinking of seeing if anyone wants to barter labor for building my hoop coop for the big girls. They should all be laying by the 1st or close to it. I have to wait until the 1st to buy all the materials.

I just read your post to angelisi . I have too many Roos too. Looking to re home one now a Black copper maran cross with crested cream legbar. What breed is yours someone might be looking for that breed. Your other option is the new collar that keeps Roos from crowing. You can by it at my pet chicken. Pam

Glad to hear you lived through it.

We do CX chickens & rabbits, have 17 layers now and still want more

I wanted a few peas... And guineas but heard their calls were awfully loud my EE hen has been half crowing (nee sound she's been using I swear is a crow without the fiddle-do lol) this last week and I have 6 new girls that are just starting to lay and they think they're in a choir with their egg songs
