Poultry Swap & Sale Ocala, Florida February 20th Updates post #22

the one reason I said McMurray as well was because one of the breeds I want isn't available till next month.

Oh, forgot to add. Anyone looking for a Buff Orp Roo? We were given one for our RIRs for them to be a trio because the person thought it was a RIR. He's a big beautiful gold boy.

Ok, I believe I have found two hens. Does anyone have a RIR rooster, around 9 months to a year old?

don't use Ideal...............all the chicks that have come from there have been sick!!! Such a problem and others have had the same problem as well.

I have gotten chicks from Ideal and they were all healthy. Some of my birds from Ideal are now 3 yrs old and I have some 2 yr olds also from Ideal. Also I had them within 2 days. I think probably why they arrived so quickly is that they didn't have far to go. Also most hatcheries will make it right if some are lost (DOA) during shipment. I had one chick that died two days after I got them and Ideal gave me a refund for that chick.

ours were meaties with respitory issues as day old chicks when they arrived. I have talked to others who had the same problem so i am scared to use them

I also have a female daushound that needs to be rehomed. We took her from a friend who couldn't keep her. my animals stay outside and she hates it!!! She really is an indoor dog. Trained and up to date on shots. Not fixed(to me that's a bad thing!) long haired, mini............

She isn't to great with free ranging chickens!!!!!!!!!!!! She tries to retrieve them but not kill them. So if yours are in pens.......your fine but free range, not fine!
Great with my other dogs, cats and kids~ her name is Lily and i have to find her a selective home! She needs love and attention. She is 3 years old.

My neighbor is looking for her as well~

How much is she/or you asking. I already have a male doxie, which I believe was abused when I got him. He is also three and his name is Sparky. He's doing great now. My youngest son is competing in the Youth Fair obedience competition with him for 4H.
