Hello! I am considering getting some Muscovy hatching eggs for my ducks to hatch this year. Anyone here willing to sell (or give away) a few fertile Muscovy eggs?

Hello,

I know it's a long shot, but does anyone in the area raise and sell Basque hens (Euskal Oiloa Marraduna)? They are completely sold out online (Greenfire, Meyer, etc.).

Thanks,
Scott

If anyone is interested in BLR Wyandotte cock birds send a private mail.

One two year old, the rest were hatched in May 2023 and one hatched September. Beautiful, well mannered birds that would make great flock leaders or Sunday roast.

Spring mating season is coming and I need to cull.

I am in Dorset, looking for 2-4 KC or Runner hens to add to my flock if anyone knows of any. I have been perusing the CL and Marketplace but not found much.

Are you in the Vermont Poultry Fanciers group on Facebook? I know there's a few people with runners in there, I'm not sure if anyone has any available but I know someone had eggs listed recently.

I am not, but I will look into it, don’t do much with Facebook other than marketplace.

Hello, Vermont people!

I’m currently looking for a new rooster. I lost my old rooster last winter (that’s him in my pfp). He was the best- so sweet to hens and people but a fierce defender of the flock. He was a white Jersey Giant; a year or two old when I got him. I would like another Giant to replace him- white or black, preferably a year old.

So, give a shout if you know of any Jersey Giants in VT!

I know everyone is (rightly!) busy living their lives, but it would be neat if we frequented this thread more.
Vermont is a lovely little state, and BYCers are cool people. We have an opportunity for a great thread.

No pressure, no guilt (real life comes first!), but if you are moved to do so, please consider sharing if you’re starting a project, or something went well, or you got new birds, or you’ve finally stacked all your firewood, etc.

I am currently out of state in college (and maybe feeling a little homesick) so I only have a few current pictures of my birds from my mom. In the meantime, I would like to share my old photos of Vermont scenery, and write briefly about some places in Vermont that I love.
I’ll probably be pretty sporadic (my goal is once a week). Feel free to just drop by and read.

One cool thing about our little state is that many people will probably recognize places they’ve visited or driven through!

Bonus chickens if you can tell me where this is:
