Hi, I am in Greene county, near Ulster county line. I have a salmon faverolle trio, 3 mixed banties, (2 hens and a roo) and a white crested black polish rooster, along with 6 auracana pullets, 2 - 2week old fav chicks and a week old polish chick. Due to space constraints and my DH not wanting to build separate facilities, I find myself in need of re-homing some birds. We made the tough decision to find new homes for the banties and the polish rooster. They have always been together, they were our first chickens, and my kids are attached to them, but the fav rooster and the polish rooster don't get along. They are barely a year old, the roosters are just getting spurs. The polish, Charley, is super friendly to people and loves to be picked up and petted. He is very curious and will gently peck dangling zipper pulls or wiggling fingers. I doesn't hurt, in fact my kids actually get a kick out of it, lol. The hens faithfully lay a egg each every day. They are not free-range here due to my fear of predators (though we have seen no evidence yet) and because of a neighbor's aggressive rooster, who will come across the street to fight with my roos. You can see a picture of them on my home page here. If any one knows some one who could give them a safe home, please contact me, either in this forum or pm me. We will miss them as they are so friendly, but sometimes, practicality wins out. Thanks for reading this and considering it.
