That would be great! Where you located. I am in manchester and I really want one but I don't really want to drive two hours for one or two chickens

unless they were welsummers. I want some so badly

but thanks

Nashville/Ashland City... Maybe if Middle TN schedules a meet up I could bring him for you then.

Do you say they had A hen or two. I might want one of those

So bad bad day

I got up at six this morning and went strait out to the hen coop to open to door and let them out into their run. What I seen was aweful all seventeen of my rare breeds poulets had been killed. A coon some how got into my coop. I still don't know how. I am so sad

Oh no! That's awful. I'm so sorry that happened. From all I've read, coons are just about the worst because they can get through things other predators can't.

Thanks guys. No coons got in the rooster coop. But i wish I could find someone to buy them. I don't have a need for them at all. the coons shut down my breeding plans.

on the bright side I still have my porcelain d'uccles(a roo and 3 hens). And a mille fluer d'uccle hen(I need to get her a rooster and another hen or two). But anyways I have 2 dark cornish cockrels, 2 light brahma cockrels, 2 naked necks cockrels and 3 silver laced wyandotte cockrels.All of which are 3 months old. Also 6 seabright that are all roosters i think bout 6 months. I have to get rid of them now

Any suggestions on where I could get some new breeding stock or suggest new breeds. I have clean slate sadly so i guess its time to try something new.
