Silkie hen need a new home

[roseyred]

I got her hoping she'd be broody and so far no luck. She's soooo sweet and very much a pet. My other chickens don't like her and I'm afraid she'll be injured so I keep her in her own pen and I know she's lonely :/

YOU would not be responsible for the box and Express shipping fees. That would be paid for by the person receiving her -about $15 for the box and maybe $50-60 Express shipping depending on distance. Of course if temps are over 80 it isn't safe to ship.

And she's very fragile...if I didn't live at my parents I would keep her inside as a pet cause she's so sweet

I am surprised you haven't found someone locally to take her yet. People are always looking for silkie hens.

You may want to post about her o the Maryland threads.
