I was wondering if anyone in the DFW area (closer to the Ft Worth side preferably) has a hen/pullet for sale so I can replace my dearly departed Ms. Ruth. The others are 14-16 weeks old so I would like one roughly the same age/size. I'm interested in a black australorp or ameraucana but I'm open to other breeds. No buff brahmas or dominiques as I've already got them. Doesn't need to be show quality. Just healthy and happy. I can't have a roo.

If you have something, would you please pm me?

Nobody?

Nobody?

You should check CL. I saw TONS of birds on there this week.

I wish I lived up there. There are so many more chicken people up there than down here...maybe. A lot of the chickens around here are American Game chickens or little Cubanos. If I was closer, I'd sell you one of my Black Australorp/Rhode Island Red mix pullet. She's a lovely red color and she's about 19 weeks old. I think she probably won't start laying until about her 24th week, but that's because her mama didn't start laying early either.

Sigh. I have too many chickens and not enough outlets for them. I think I need to start making soup.

Wow! Best opening day of dove season ever! Had all my friends and family out to the farm and they all limited. And God saved my life to boot. Stepped right over a four foot diamond back rattler. Did not even see it. My brother spotted it just in time to warn me and for me to swing around and shoot it (one handed) with my shotgun before it struck. That's the last time I am wearing earplugs while dove hunting. That's for sure. Praise God for His protection.

Now this is real foraging off the land.

Glad you're okay and that your hunting was bountiful! I've always wanted to go hunting before, but Dad is hesitant to allow me to. I'd have to learn how to shoot as well, which is a bit embarrassing considering the state we live in.
