Oregon

Hi All,

I am in Salem

In the defense of the Silkies, they are fairly naive at times, but that may have a bit to do with the fact that they can't see too well.

Or maybe i'm just givig them too much credit.

I have some free chicks for enrolled 4-H kids. I have 2 bantam buff Brahmas that are a few weeks old, there are bantam single combed Rhode Island Red chicks hatching today, and I have some AOV bantam Faverolles that are 1-3 weeks old. Let me know if you're interested!

Just an FYI - the Brahma chicks are gone, but I still have 8 bantam single combed Rhode Island Red chicks for FREE to any enrolled 4-H kid!! As well as a few of the AOV Faverolles. ;)
 
We are in Toledo, Oregon. Just a mere 7 miles from the beautiful Oregon Coast. We have 25 hens and four roosters...everything from Silkie and Sebright to my favorite the always personable Speckled Sussex.
 
I have a pair of bantam Ameraucanas available if anyone is interested. Wanted to post them here first before they went on CL. They are a year old. Black cock and blue hen. The cock won Reserve Champion AOCCL at the Stevenson show last October.....





I don't have any really good pics of the hen right now, but here she is as a youngster....



I've gotten some really gorgeous babies out of these birds!! $40 for the pair.

Just posted this question over on the predator and pest section but was wondering if local folks had experience or opinions about using insecticidal soap in their coops. Yesterday I discovered the dog crate some of my hens use as a nest box had exploded with mites. I pulled the crate out of the coop and insecticidal soap seemed to kill the mites on contact. Dusting hens and coop cleaning are the projects of the day. I understand this will have to be done again to catch the next batch of mites that hatch but I would like to knock out as many as possible this time around. Thank-you for any info!
