I'm in the Watsonville area on an 8-acre, certified-organic boutique farm. These two Henriettas turned out to be Henrys, which I'm not allowed to have on this farm. They came from Belt Hatchery via Corralitos Feed, and were hatched March 6th and brought to the farm on the 7th.
They have been raised in a mixed flock of 20 other hens and a handful of Welsh Harlequin ducks. They both have friendly dispositions, with the gray/black/red cockerel being the quieter of the two. The white/red one is just finding his crowing voice.
Both of them have earned a place in my heart, and I'm sad to have to see them go. While I could return them for trade for Araucana hens, that's a guarantee that they'll go into a pot. And honestly, I'd rather be the one to put them down if that is the only solution available. It just doesn't seem humane to take them from a huge, pastured flock, which is all they've known, and send them off to be fattened up in a back yard somewhere.
So, fingers are crossed that someone might love to take one or both of these beautiful guys. They will both make for handsome flock additions. Feel free to inquire here or privately if you have questions or would like more details.
