With March around the corner... I am so ready to start up my incubator no one seems to be laying right now though or if they are they are hiding from me! Still hoping to find a Blue Cooper Marans Rooster so I can start breeding my girls. Another breed my husband really wants is the Cream Legbar. I have a hen but our Rooster didn't make it in the cold and I don't think he was what we were told though since he didn't match the pictures.

I'm in Milford, so not too far from you. I'll have Cream Legbars once I get them separated.

My older hens are starting to pick up the production all of the sudden after going all winter thus far without anything. Thankfully, I have those cream legbars and some Catalanas that have been laying all winter like champions.

Hi! My husband and I live in brecksville.. Can anyone help with questions about selling eggs? Can we sell right from our house, or are there stipulations about this?

Hi there Wingless Though we here in Cuyahoga Falls have not yet passed (hopefully soon, though!) our Backyard Chickens proposal, I would suggest checking your local city regulations if you're going to be selling more than a few dozen eggs to friends. If you're selling to the public, you may have to have a permit to sell anything at all.
On one hand, I don't think we should need to have a permit to sell some eggs, but on the other hand, I'd check to make sure that I don't get in trouble for it.
Good luck and keep clucking!

I sure hope something gets passed to allow Cuyahoga Falls to own chickens! I know a lot of cities have recently changed their policies to follow suit of Cleveland; I'm hoping yours will be one of them! Let me know if there's anything we can do to show support! Thank you for your reply!

Chicks are in at Tractor Supply! We picked up six this morning - so adorable! We bought a few Golden Comets.. We purchased a couple last year, and they have been laying eggs consistently through winter.. There were probably only a few days that they didn't lay.. Anyway, just wanted to share the good news about the chicks! Hope you all have a great Saturday!

Oh god! Looks like I'll have to stay out of there for awhile! I've been toying with the idea of getting a few hatchery birds just to feed my addiction since I haven't gotten any from my own birds yet. I may have figured out why I wasn't getting fertile eggs, but only time will tell.

The ladies are NOT happy. The white stuff is back.

When I opened the coop this morning a couple of them actually made it a few steps down the ramp before they realized there was snow in their run. They stopped, looked around in disgust, shot me a quick glare, and promptly turned around and went back in the coop.

I know that quick stop on the way out the door and then the "are you kidding me????" look.
