So we went from 23 chicks and 3 1 year old hens down to 6 little pullets @ 3 weeks old.
We found:
People will be late picking them up and really don't care.
Most were lurkers of BYC but weren't registered.
Horse people don't need as much instruction as dog people.
Non animal people need a lot of help.
People with only children are non animal people.
Craigslist got the most reponses the fastest.
Second best response was a homeshool/organic food email list.
Randomly accosting non animal people drew a surprisingly low response.
Laying chickens at $10 each sold on craiglist in less than an hour.
I met the Beastmaster and my agressive chickens were docile lambs when he spoke to them. Well, except Blacktail.
We liked mostly everyone that came and would have talked chicken for another hour.
It was more traumatic on the kids to lose the chickens than we thought.
Two little applesauce cups, hot glued to a piece of cardboard made a handy travel waterer/feeder
