I've been looking for wyandottes locally for over a month. I looked for them last year too but no one ever had them. When I called this morning, and they said they had 8, I grabbed the small human and jumped in the car.

Meant to be!

I'm looking to rehome my 8 month old blue silkie cockerel if anyone is interested. He's good with the girls and appears to be protecting them well but he's too aggressive with my little kids. I've decided he has to go. I'm outside Ann Arbor if anyone is interested.

Glad I found that to be true after keeping some in my brooder for a friend for 3 days

I know there is a chickenstock member page, but just to make it easier to search for those looking for specific things, I went ahead and opened a thread as well

If I lived any closer I would take you up on the ducks!!! I'm thinking that a 5 hour car ride would not really be enjoyable for them though.

@GardenJen77 Welcome! I was new here last year, and have found everyone to be very friendly, and a wealth of knowledge.

On a more sober note, I sent my RIR rooster to freezer camp this morning. He attacked my mom twice, and he was really hard on my girls, so it was time. But still a little sad as he was a very pretty bird and I loved to hear him crow. I keep telling myself how good he will taste with home-made egg noodles like my Grandma used to make.

Tough but good decision..BonAppetite!

Hi! I've been a member for awhile but just lurked

I've got around 40 birds that I co-own with a friend (she has more room). Mostly Murray McMurray birds, some Bresse, a couple Ayam Cemani, and a Barbezieux. We had two Marans hens that laid beautiful dark eggs...Then ate them so they live somewhere else now (not freezer camp, lol)

Well my new Border Collie didn't kill any chickens when I free ranged them today, tried to round them up once. That was pretty cool. He is only 4 months, so still a baby.
