Hey yall...my sweet silkie cockrel turned on me yesterday for the first time ever. I have grandbabies and am disabled so I can't have that around nor give him a chance...and I cant do the deed - He's been like a pet to me.
If yall know of anyone interested I am re-homing him asap.
This is Mango at 6 mos...he's 8 mo now.

A mutt chicken that was dropped off by the mailman, bills in one hand chicken in the other named Henny Penny who now thinks she's a goose.
A Basingi named Ripley(Alians) who eats everything the birds leave behind

Hi all! Seeing if I can drum up any info on selling backyard eggs in tn? It read a resource online about it, but was curious about any a first hand experience or info.

Not sure which resource you saw already, but this publication from UT Extension contains pretty much everything you need to know about the legal requirements for selling eggs for human consumption in TN: https://foodscience.tennessee.edu/w...r-Farm-to-Consumer-Egg-Sales-in-Tennessee.pdf. Hope that helps!



On another note, does anybody happen to have chicks right now? I had a New Year's Day hatch that went badly, and now I have a day-old chick with no friends. I'll have another hatch in a few weeks, but I'd love to find a friend or two for her before then if possible. I'm in Cookeville but work in feed sales statewide, so I'm not limited to local pickups.
