I have 4 hens and 1 roo that I need to rehome. I've been taking care of chickens for just over 5 years and it is taking it's toll. I love them and it is a difficult decision, but I can't do it anymore. The roo and 1 hen are easter eggers about 2.5 years old. 2 hens are production reds and I'm pretty sure they are also 2.5 years old. 1 hen I think is also a production red - lighter in color and her tail is white though. She is 4 years old. All the hens still lay, but have slowed/stopped for the winter. The roo has a slight cross beak, but the only thing I have done is to make sure the feeder is always full since he eats out of the top. He is a sweetheart and has never attacked me. You can have any supplies I have - food, feeders, waterers (including one heated). The coop is a shed and stays. I am in upstate NY - near Troy.
I hope you can find someone to care for them! They're very nice looking chickens! I'm sorry that you have to rehome them you can live vicariously through all of us on BYC!
*hugs* I know it's hard to offer up your flock for adoption. I am offering up some of my chickens too (almost 100 when it's all said and done). My problem was I didn't attend summer school and keep up with the chicken math. My fault. Totally my fault.
I have someone coming this weekend to take my chickens home. I'm both happy and sad. They will be added to an existing flock. I know how addicting chickens are I hope in the future I will be ready for another small flock to provide fresh eggs and plenty of entertainment.
