Moving, need to rehome my hens

[kimberley848]

I am going to be moving in the next couple of months, across the country and need to find my 3 girls a new home. They are 2yrs old, Cream Legbars and just lovely girls. We are moving from Southern California (OC) to TN/KY area. I can't get health certs for them because of the avian flu that happened in those areas in the last year (per my vet looking into it). Needless to say, I need to find them a home. I will give all my supplies with them (if wanted): feed, shavings, gravity fed feeders, water tubs, snack supply, calcium, vitamins, as well as the night time coop if interested. (Coop is 4'x4' x 5' tall- very secure, 3 nesting boxes and 9' of roosting space). There is no run attached to the coop.** They're good girls, spoiled, lay light blue eggs (although, not the best layers honestly) and get along with other hens, both dogs and cats. They will be due for their bi-annual worming in Nov. The top hen, Wilma is molting right now, Betty stopped laying in solidarity & is just starting her molt and Dotty, the low hen on the totem pole is still laying about 3-4 eggs per week.
My biggest issue is that I'm getting over cancer surgery, so I currently don't have use of my R hand (thru mid Oct) and haven't been able to trim nails and check for bumblefoot. (2 of them were getting over it and 1 had new spots, but were clearing up with treatment..... which I stopped with the cancer diagnosis/treatment... so I'm sure it needs some treatment.)
If anyone is interested, please contact me.
I'll try to get some pics later and post them if anyone is interested.
Thanks, Kim

Hey, you should post on your local Craigslist, also check out any local farmers. I found a family that took all my extra chicks this year, only because I talked to my farmer neighbors. Maybe ask around at a farmers market? Esp the ones that lay eggs?

Also, I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Side note, could you sneak your girls over "the border". They're not sick!

Hi! I'm happy to give them a home if they are still available. I live in Sylmar and my boyfriend and I have a truck and can come help get everything all together. Please let me know!
