I have wanted chickens for a long time......but I live in the suburbs with a Homeowner Assoc! But, so what....I built myself a coop and ordered 8 chicks from MPC and now I have at 7 weeks 4 silkies, 1 brahma, 2 eastereggers, and one unknown. I am totally in love with them all but one at 7 weeks has started to crow (EE). I am bummed and I think I have 2 other roos but I am so new I can't really tell. When I am able I will post some pics for help. I can see how this gets to be an obsession. Now I am worried about my neighbors and if I get a complaint.....what to do with my beautiful little rooster? Oh well....thanks for this site.

from Michigan. I got 8 EE this Spring and I have 4 roos and 4 hens. The roos started getting red combs pretty early and then the red feathers started showing on their wings

I didn't make mine into real pets because I knew roos will go in the freezer. My roos are still pretty quite and not a lot of crowing at 12 weeks old but, I can tell they are still practicing. Good luck with neighbors and maybe Craigslist for new homes.

What town do you live in, or what area? Maybe you can find a place local, like at a stables or someone zoned A-1 that you can keep chickens at their place.

from Ohio. So glad you joined. That's why I pay a little more just for pullets. You can list them in the auction here or place ads on store bulletin boards at your local stores. Good luck.
