Six Fort Myers Hens Need New Home

[Shadowfire.vixen]

I have six hens about ten months old in Fort Myers Fl. that need a new home. I’m moving back to Minnesota and MN laws won’t allow me to bring them into the state.
All are good egg layers, about two and a half to three dozen eggs a week, never had any health issues.
Breeds are:
Two Blackstars
One Amberlink
One White Plymouth Rock
One Rhode Island Red
One Blue Splash Marans

All are from Tractor Supply. The Amberlink, one Blackstar and I think the RIR are egg singers. None of them peck when collecting eggs.

I have a large A frame coop and fencing as well if interested.

Good luck with your move and locating a new home for your birds. Have you posted this on the Florida thread ?

I'm not very close to you but I am interested. Can I get pictures of the hens and the coop?

Here are my chickies, will post pics of coop today. I don’t have any pics of the coop saved.

Pretty girls! Like I said I'm quite a drive from you, especially if I get the coop too. The trailer I can use is not mine, so the 4 1/2 hour dive is not possible. I can only really go within about an hour and half of myself due to having to borrow the trailer from a person who is kind of a control freak.

Would you be willing to travel? I know it really wouldn't be a even drive for both of us, but I would love to get your girls!

Unfortunately I don’t have anyway to move the coop. Even if I took it all apart it won’t fit in my truck, I can’t rent a truck big enough right now either as I’m already renting two at different times for moving. The coop is just too big, 12 feet long by 10 feet wide by 5 feet tall.

If you’re still interested in the girls though I could drive to meet you.

 

[TheBeardie]

That's fine. I would still like you to come closer to me if your willing. When do you have to move?

 

[Shadowfire.vixen]

I’ not moving for a couple months yet, but my place is a rental and I have to clean up and replant the grass. I’m free until Friday this week and Sunday, Tuesday and Saturday off next week. Beyond that I don’t have my work schedule yet.

Could you possibly meet in DeLand? I'm not sure how much further I can go. I'm sorry I can't travel too far.

Sorry minor crisis here. Will get back to you as soon as I can. Pipe broke water everywhere!
