To anyone in the Huntsville area looking for a kitten/barn cat... I have one adult unaltered female who actively hunts and four kittens born in april I need to rehome so I can finish getting my others fixed.

Thanks for the advice guys. I will have to look into the fowl pox, I would have never thought of that. I rairly if ever have health issues so really didn't know what to think. It must have come from the hatcher or my other birds have more ammunity to the virus, because my crossbreeds didn't have a problem till the new ones came from the hatchery. Maybe hybrid vigor you know? Anyway thanks everyone I'll let you know what I find out.

I will take and post pictures when I get home. There's a "wild colored" grey tabby that actually lives in the grow out coop with the chicks. The others have never once offered to do so, either. They're with the free rangers and had enough big bad mama game hens beat the sense into them for going after chicks. There's the grey tabby, two orange/white tabbies, and a black and white female. She's a sweetie and has caught many mice already, brings them home all the time. The boys can hunt, and do so well, but don't bring as many gifts as "s kitty". I will post pictures when I get home, here shortly, of them when I all them in to eat. They'll use a litter box if in the house and are all wormed, just need shots/eabies/and to be fixed... But I just had two toms and a female done and can only afford one more this year.

the black and white was born April 5. The two orange males were born April 25 and the grey male April 21. Their mothers decided to sneak attack me with multiple litters, and all showed up around the same time.

ETA: Switch s kitty and dIsneys information and it will be correct.

Well here they are!

This is "Wild Kitty" because he's colored like a wild tom that used to come up all the time. Wild kitty is the only remaining kitten of his litter. They were all very weak when we found them and five out of six died. We cleaned him up and gave him to another mama cat who had similar aged kittens. He survived, somehow, but is very tiny. I suspect he will stay under 5 lbs.

This is "S Kitty" when she was born she had the perfect S shape on her back. It isn't so perfect anymore. S Kitty is a total sweetheart, and a GREAT hunter. She's constantly leaving presents for me or bringing them to me.

"Disney" Because he has mickey mouses head on his side. He likes to play, a lot, and screams at a door when he wants out. He loves being scratched on occasion, but is mostly a cats cat. Disney had a fraternal brother I'd have liked him to be homed with. They were born at the same time, same sac, same placenta... They almost killed the mama cat, but I was there to aide her. But his brother disappeared two weeks ago and never came back.

"Orange Kitty" because he's orange. A real sweet, in your face boy. He's the biggest of the kittens and the tamest. Actively hunts but I'm not sure he's quite got it down yet, he doesn't give me presents like S Kitty.

Real original names, I know... I will get better pictures of them with the chickens tomorrow if I remember I only remembered tonight by chance... Sorry about picture quality taking them on my phone my camera said pfffttt.
