Mixed hens for sale (Georgia USA)

[ackie]

Forgive me if I'm not allowed to post this. I dont have birds consistently enough to merit a listing in the pinned thread.

My hens were prolific this summer and now I have way more birds than I'd like. I have someone who buys my roos but I'm looking to sell my hens.

They're PART gamefowl but theres a good bit of layer in there (probably orpington). I'm having trouble selling them to suburbs chicken people because I cant say how many eggs a year theyll lay. I was hoping that someone here might be interested instead (or have advice). I like them a lot because they're a bit more thrifty than the purely docile chickens I've had because theres some game in there.

Pics below are of the flock in general. Birds for sale were born in March/April. Penned until 4 months-ish. Free range during the day after that.

I live in Atlanta GA. I dont have any certifications.

Depending on how many you want, I'm not necessarily opposed to driving out to you.

I am almost at capacity in my coop, so I could only take one or two. Started pullets are always a big sell near me, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to find them all homes. If you have it, advertising on FB would be a good idea. There's tons of chicken groups for Georgia on there.

What breed of game are they mixed with? Its hard to tell in the pics, how big are they?

I didnt realize there were different breeds of game, so I'm not sure.

I tried to find a picture with a size reference, but I'm striking out. They're medium, I guess. Definitely not bantam. More filled out/thicker than game birds, but not heavy-set to the point of falling out of a tree (idk if that's a thing or my previous big girl was just special lol). What measurements are you looking for?

I mean, what breed of chicken, and game to refer to the game part it is mixed with. I know you said the orpington part, I'm wondering the other half. The measurements you gave are fine.

I tried to learn the different game breeds just now and I honestly have no idea.

This is my head rooster (half orpington half game, I was told) and his ladies, if that helps any?

I'm sorry, I just dont know.

If you wouldn't mind shipping to Oklahoma, I'd love to take a couple of your hands. Maybe 3 of the ones with the bluish feathers?

Shipping birds might be a little out of my league right now haha.

They’re American game mixes.

Born in March and April. Gave me a great distraction at the beginning of the pandemic haha. I appreciate all your questions. Youre helping me learn how to better advertise them.

Do you still have any left you need to rehome?

I wasn't planning to let any more grown hens go.

But I do have a couple 3 month olds and some straight run younger chicks.
