Those look like BIG birds (not to be confused with big bird of course)
I had to laugh....i was holding my rooster when my hen "Faith" jumped on my shoulder. Then she walked over and got comfortable on top of "rosie". I guess she likes it on top!!!
Yea I ordered 10 Black copper marans from her and she only had 5 when I got there she had a bad hatch I did pick up a dozen BCM eggs for the hatch along. Nice people She also gave my Wife a Muscovy Duck. I even Tried Goat milk, she has a nice set up. BUt thanks you for your responce
I work in Greenville and my husband says I'm a city girl from up north. My husband may be willing to help you out when that inevitable (I know I speled that wrong!!) time comes. He travels alot but just let us know! He grew up on a farm... I personally could NEVER do it!!Hey Ya'll!
I'm from Greenville, SC. We're staying in some condo's ATM and are planning getting a house in the next year or so hopefully. My brother and I use to have chicken when we were young. I have always loved chickens. My husband is from Providence, RI. He's a city boy from up North. He says that he's a Southern Transplant. He lived in Cali for 7 years before moving here. That's when he met me. He has never seen a tractor on the road till he moved here. He hates getting behind them. He use to ''toot'' the horn and go around, He thought it was weird that the farmer would wave at him. He has more patience now and enjoys taking life in the slow lane instead of being in a rush all the time.
Anyways..
I have done alot of research over the last week or so. I'm also pricing stuff and finding out which route is the best to take. Like I've said, I love chickens, but can't stand to kill them. I asked my hubby if he can kill and process them if the hens gets old and he said ''Of Course, I will....''.. that quickly changed when he saw a video of how to do it. Guess I'll be looking for that special chicken lady and/or man to pay them to kill and process it for me.
Happy Cock-a-doodle doo!

Wow there might be a market for that--processing chickens. I wonder what a reasonable charge would be? I know I could never do it--and I am not really sure I could even eat it truth be told but maybe if I brought them to you and then you jut processed a batch--and well maybe I was eating someone else's chicken?? lol! I don't know how that would work best!
We pay $5 a bird when we get them processed here...Just for reference....
Would just like to say you will find and have a great neighbor/friend/informationalist in Amy!!! She is an awesome lady and you are lucky to be so close! I don't get to visit her nearly what I wish!!! There are lots of others here too that offer so much friendship and help and knowledge! WELCOME to chicken love and BYC!!!!
That is looking really good! Nice work and I am sure the chickies and you will enjoy that for many years! Great job!As of this morning we have a roof and a wall! hoping to get this done this weekend!!
Thank you! This project has definitely taken on a life of it's own. I was told to stop at the ReStore on the way home and buy a window because he now wants to add a window with a window box. It will be fantastic I'm sure.That is looking really good! Nice work and I am sure the chickies and you will enjoy that for many years! Great job!
