What did you do with your flock today?

I'm sad I don't have any chickens

I'm really sorry you're sad. Did something happen to your flock?

I had to rehome them.... but hopefully I'll get more soon.

Spoke with the local post office and they said the label they got from the seller was incorrect. Live birds MUST be shipped Express, but the tracking number I got is for a Priority package. I've contacted the seller, but it's still early for her. I'm so upset. If these birds die, I'll just be beside myself.


UPDATE two hours later: got another text saying the package has arrived in Little Rock. So there's hope they'll arrive tomorrow morning.

Did the seller leave some food in there for them? Water?!! Where are they coming from?

Well, they can't be completely enclosed so maybe some kind person will take pity on them. Wondering if they will eat their eggs in an emergency situation.
I am always blown away when people are not hypervigilant with live critters.

Well, I am really, really sorry that this is not as smooth as it could have been. Wondering if flight cancelations and delay caused by weather and covid are playing a part.
I'll be keeping your new babies in my good thoughts and hoping they find a window to get to you asap ♡♡♡♡

I think my husband may be over wanting roosters! This is my Christmas present from him!

So cool to see other people with their chicken chotskies. I started collecting roosters 30+ years ago but let much of it go with a move. Give a left toe for most of it today. Hard to find the good stuff now.

Ameraucana, Barred Plymouth Rock, Black Astralorp, Black Star, Buff Orpington, Delaware, Red Star, Rhode Island Red, Silver Laced Wyandotte, and White Leghorns.

Nice selection for sure and any mix of those would not be a bad thing. Well, right now let's hope for the girls. ♡♡♡

Hi @Cluckme . It has been awhile since you had to rehome your flock now yes? I can't remember the specifics on the why's. Do you think you will be getting any soon?
