YO GEORGIANS! :)

Nancy,
We would love to give your younger Dels a home, please let me know if they are still available. If they are how much would you be asking for them. We may be interested in the older ones, how many are in the flock and are you looking to sell them all together. Mandy
 
Its my obsession, if you decide you want the adults, I can take them off auction and there are about 6 to 8 young pullets/roos as well. They are off heat and on the group.... Maybe you can come over this weekend. Thanks. Nancy
 
After many, many, many years I am now able to start up a small flock again. I want to get my chickens from real people who love their birds. I want to visit and pick out my girls by hand. These ladies will be my pets. I will spoil them. I am looking for Easter Eggers (3), Wyandottes(2) and Sussex(3) hens. I've got my heart set on a Faverolles rooster.

Can anyone help?

THANK YOU!!!
 
Alrighty, well I've decided to start following this thread... need to keep up with my neighbors! Plus, I need more than one thread to follow!

Okay, I worked very hard today! I currently have 5 dels in the brooder from Cyn, and once they move out I'll probably have Ameraucanas- BBS and (

) Lav in there. That is, if I can afford lav! Have you seen these auctions?? I doubt I'll be able to get any from here. Oh well...

Moving on, I took the old small cardboard box brooder (2x4) and tore it down. We received a nice orchid in the mail which came with two 5x2 boxes. So after the old brooder was ripped apart, I took one of the new boxes, filled it with everything and moved it in. The sides were a little low so I used the sides of the old box to stack on top of the sides so the chicks can't fly out, and added hardware cloth on half the top. In another two weeks I'll add the other box, and they'll move to the outdoors 6 1/2 weeks.

chicks!

And I also might make a mini fridge into an incubator if I can make a shelf in my real refrigerator into an egg shelf. Otherwise I'll be boring and use it for eggs.

So if it must hold eggs, I'm looking into either the Hovabator Genesis 1588 or the Brinsea hatchmaker USDHAO1 (you can see it here http://www.brinsea.com/prod-Hatchmaker_Incubator-3.aspx) The only thing is, I would like to have an auto turner which isn't offered with the hatchmaker. Maybe I'll add rocks in a corner to hold the temp/humidity after I've hand-turned?

Check out bargain. I'm not sure what breeds she has but she's very well respected and is right above your post.​
 
Nick, if you're going with Brinsea (I've got 2 Octo 20 Eco's and love them) go with the Octo series. Its only approx $200 after shipping, rather then the $1000 for the hatchmaker.

Eggscellent!!!! I didn't know you had any for sale. That's great!!!!! We bought 4 chicken tractors (used) and are cleaning and rehabbing them. Also got one wonderful very large 2 sided hutched will be for our silkies as they grow up!

Awesome! My feed store makes them and the one that I'm selling was my first coop! That is, the first of my chicken comeback LOL. It'll be hard to let it go... But my neighbor bought it

. Ya know, the little short graze pen things? I was just offered one for free. Should I do it? Maybe it could hold birds that I'm selling, or are leftover from hatching...

Edited to add, this is what I sold. I bought it for $500. Way over-priced!
