Glad she's back! Mary

Me too, I'm glad she's back. My flock was looking a little light earlier

Saturday I sold fourteen birds, including seven cockerels. Wonderful! May they do great in their new homes, and it's much more peaceful here! 'Only' forty-eight chickens left, how did that happen? I do still have a trio of Belgian d'Uccle pullets that could leave, cute, but too many. Still, a manageable group for winter. Yes, thirty-five would be better... Mary

How much do you sell the birds for?

Thank you chickflick, I will pm her.

And I just sent six hens, 1 1/2 year old AB crosses, to a friend, who hatched way more cockerels then she expected this year.

Here's to fewer chores!

Hi everyone. I'm brand new and cannot wait to get my first coop up and running this spring! I am a bit nervous though as I've never raised chickens before. Do you all have any advice or would recommend a place I could go to learn more? I'm in the metro Detroit area.
