seramas in virginia

[newham0614]

I've seen a couple ads on craigslist for serama chicks in harrisonburg. Does anybody have them in virginia that let them live outside? I would love to have a couple.
Thanks

i live in west virginia and know a lady that lives near me (also in wv) and she has her outside, she brings them inside when its really really cold and gives them a heat source for winter. i just hatched out one serma... had 2 but the other never hatched. sadly my hatchling died BUT i bought another one from the lady i got my eggs from and got 2 more eggs in the bator now.

i plan on keeping them in a special 'suite' ie converted rabbit hutch... since i have considerably bigger chickens and i dont what the bigger bullies to harm my little sermas.

i will provide a heat lamp but nothing special for them unless it gets unbearably cold them i may bring them in the garage but it will depend.


depending on how close we are to each other i may be able to set you up with the lady i deal with. pm me if you would like.

I dont live in Virginia but I do live in north Ga and it got really cold this year and we had lots of snow. I have a small flock of seramas and have never giving them any additional heat. They have done fine. Here there are in their little serama hutch.

Can you tell me what coop this is? I'm trying to find something big enough for about 7 seramas. Thanks!
