Free to good home--or if no good homes speak up, free to hungry home--One very sweet Delaware Cockerel. Nice rare heritage breed--hens are supposed to lay big eggs. He has to go before he crows!
I seem to be suffering from The Curse of the White Chicken. Every white chicken I have ever purchased have either been boys or died from predator attack. To make it harder, Dennis doesn't breed white chickens, so I have no local source!
My boy is "Trish" --I got him as a ball of fluff with "Jessica Jones" the australorp.
They love each other--just to make me feel worse.

Thanks, Dennis, for the 19 eggs. I stuffed them all under Niko. She's now a very happy broody.

I lost all mine white chickens to predators. That’s why I’m trying the Cali grey. I don’t know how far you are from Denver, Pa but you could box him up and bring him to Green Dragon this evening. The three we have sold went for like $16-$18 a piece. They take a commission but it’s still a good price. Plus while u are there you can buy produce or more farm animals lol

I don’t think the other 4 eggs are going to hatch. I’m thinking of trying to get some other chicks to slip underneath her. The feed mill just got silver and gold laced Wyandotte chicks. It’s not really what I want but it seems difficult to find chicks near me. I’d love a couple Marans chicks or EE (preferably a non broody type lol)

May all but one of the chicks be females !

Out of the 12 eggs I have in the incubator 10 look promising. Monday we should have chicks hatching.

One of my barn cats has 4 orange kittens. They soon will be old enough to try and catch to try and tame them down and find new homes. I have 12 barn cats not in counting the 4 kittens.
