NY chicken lover!!!!

Southern Rensselaer/ Northern Columbia county here. Have a mixed flock but loved our Wyandottes and Partridge Rocks. I'm putting an order together from McMurray but can't handle all 25 chicks(the minimum). Would anyone like to split the order? They'll let you order single chicks from any breed, just have to total 25. I'm looking to keep about a dozen and order them for March. Thanks for reading this!

Hi Masonsdad! Love the Johndeere! Welcome and enjoy the thread!

Well that helps. Now if only another coop and run would just build themselves....

Oh Stony, you have to get some D'uccles. There are the most wonderful breed. Really. If you decide to order some from Happyhensny, I'll pick them up and bring them over....you can pay me for gas in Sumantra eggs.

I really LOVE my D'uccles. They are very friendly, talkative and wander around the place like they own it. Definately have "short man" disease....they rule the roost around here. And the tiny eggs are WONDERFUL as deviled eggs in the summer....the kids LOVE them, really. And now that they have finished their molt and are laying again their eggs are comperable to "Small" supermarket eggs.

The Black Australorps? Not sure about those. They are large fowl so they lay large eggs...that's a plus I guess. I'm not going to make another coop and mine is already full, esp if I get 4 more banties this spring. (I am reserving the other side of the coop for the Sumantras, when I finally get some hatched) But if you want to order some, I'll stuff them in the box with the D'uccles and bring them over to ya.

I just couldn't get motivated yesterday. I shut my finger in the barn door and took off a flap of skin. I didn't feel it until my finger started to warm up. From there on I did a few house chores and hung out with my girlies. When I got on this morning I had to go back 4 pages to catch up.

Welcome to the new peeps!

Rancher- I would be interested in buying 1 or 2 Del hens when/if you decide to sell.

I need to go check out the thread on that hatchery.

Good Morning everyone

Good Morning everyone! I don't understand this!? I don't get the new posts sent to my email...so I am always behind!? I think we got snow last night...I was hopeful for a snow day! My DH built 3 of the cookie tin heaters Sunday night...they work great..and much cheaper then the round thing at TCS...we did but them on a Thermocube. Couldn't see leaving them on if not needed. hahaha

I will be hatching and offering Light/Coronation Sussex Chicks and eggs. The line is from Green Fire and Rocknpaints. I should also have Bantam Cochins. Blue or Blk Mottled I hope.

This is a long shot...does anyone know of a Black Male Pug who is available for breeding. I have a female I would like to breed and can't seem to find a male..Thanks for any thoughts.

Enjoy the day

I really don't like the new site and all of it's "improvements"

 

[Tab's chicken obsession]

I wish there had been a way to expand the old site. I've looked at the "auctions" they're a joke. There's no clear bidding or way of knowing what's going on. If changes aren't made to that I won't be buying or selling from it.

 

[Cydney83]

I don't think I am liking it either...nope 5 or 6 pages behind....and all...auction I looked to..put thought maybe later I will look again...and to post a pic!? I have to do that and I just can't force myself to do it!

 

[vmdanielsen]

I am not loving it either. I am having a hard time doing anything. HHMM. I wonder. I have a Mac.....Should that make a difference?

 

[meepitqueenie]

auctions stay open so the sellers don't have to re open them any more. my auction is there and you just hit the pm button.
other than that some that say auction at the top you have to comment to bid and the seller has to adjust the price manually.
