Can't be of much help over here in the TN suburbs, but I am sending my thoughts and prayers your way. May things work out for you in the very best way, Mahonri.
It sucks! If my uncle was on his way to Illinois, he might pick up a few birds from you but he isn't going anywhere that I know of. Will have to get a hold of him to see if he is wanting to visit us. If you get them all sold, thats fine too!
Too far away to take any of your beautiful birds. I know you worked hard to get just the flock you wanted. I can imagine how I'd feel if someone said my birds had to go
So glad that the neighbors are willing to work with you a little. Is there a local ordinance against the birds, or are you just trying to keep peace? I hope things settle down and they leave you alone...
