Hi, I'm looking for a new breeding rooster for my marraduna basque flock. Large, good coloring and conformation. Please message me if you have an adult roo with proven fertility for sale! He would need to be shipped to Ohio, or if you're someplace close I will happily pick up.

I am now taking spring orders for my rhodebar eggs in sets of 8 for $24, plus $14 for shipping. Payment is thru paypal, and I double-box and double-wrap all orders. Rhodebars are great -- they're thrifty, excellent layers of large brown eggs, autosexing and pretty! They're a wonderful home...

I have seven polish tolbunt chicks for sale, hatched May 15th. I have never shipped chicks and the idea makes me very nervous! I would vastly prefer local pick-up, or can deliver within a 100 mile range of Mansfield OH for $60/round trip (or less depending on distance). There are both smooth and...

Birds are located in north-central Ohio :-) Hi, I have a lovely little flock of twelve Andalusian chickens for sale. Looks like 4 (maybe 5) roos and either 7 or 8 pullets. They range in age from 8 weeks to 3 1/2 months, and are used to being together. Would prefer to sell as a flock for $60...

Hi! I have one EE who I was told was a roo but I think it's a pullet. Unfortunately I don't know the age (winter hatch sometime...). The roos. Blackie in back.

Hi! I have a trio of NH red chickens for sale. The rooster was hatched on 8/21 and the two hens on 10/01. They should start laying in about 7-8 weeks. All three for only $12 (I have eggs in the incubator and need to make room). Also two silver-laced wyandotte for sale, hatched 8/21: $15 for...

Hi! I supposedly have two clean-legged BCM pullets (8 weeks old). Problem is, I've also got two 8 week old Black Australorp pullets and I'll be darned if I can tell them apart! (Keep in mind, it's my first time raising either breed). They looked pretty much identical as chicks, too -- the ones...

Hi everybody! I've got six cuckoo marans/rock cross roos to give away. Three are 10 weeks old, two CM/white rock and one CM/partridge rock. Three are 4 weeks old, two CM/white rock, one CM/barred rock. All have the same (VERY fertile!) cuckoo marans daddy. PM me if you want them! Otherwise...

Hi folks! Not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I just picked up my last fall batch of chicks at Meyer Hatchery in Polk, and they have about 18 Black Copper Marans left over from last week's hatch they're selling for 1.50 each. Also some broilers and a few other varieties (I...

Okay, I admit it -- I have no impulse control when it comes to chickens! Started with 9 in June -- two NH red, 6 assorted rocks, and my lovely cuckoo marans roo. Well, clearly that was nowhere near enough chickens, so I hatched out some marans/rock mutts on Aug. 22 (great, sweet birds and OMG...

Hi all -- I'm noticing a few breeds that appear to be naturally sex-linked: Columbian Wyandottes (I think), maybe Delawares? Is this my imagination, or are there any purebred breeds that are inherently sex-linked at hatch?

Okay, now I've got to go see who else has eggs in the incubator. I set eight Marans mutt eggs on Saturday, my first hatching attempt ever, in my newly-built "Uglybator", and today I have veins! WHEE!!!! The Uglybator, hard at work!!! Recycled Godiva truffles shipping cooler, yummmmm.....

Hi all! I'm sitting here running a temperature test on my mostly-completed homemade incubator. (Making sure everything works properly before I do final gluing/taping assembly.) So, in a moment of complete and bald-faced self-interest, I thought I'd come and ask a question of everyone here who's...

Well. My opinion of chicken intelligence just went way, way up. I so tried to get a picture of this for you guys!!! but my crummy cellphone camera in the low light just wouldn't manage it. Anyway, you know how when your hanging metal feeder starts getting too low you have to give it a good solid...

Hi everybody! I've been haunting BYC for three or four months now, since I first started thinking about getting chickens. I'm renting half a house on five acres and my landlady who's ex-Amish got SO excited when I mentioned possibly getting chickens, so then of course I had to :-) Originally I'd...

Hi all! I'd been thinking for a few months about getting chickens -- I'd originally planned on ordering some peeps from Meyer's and driving up to get them, but instead found a lovely little flock on Craigslist (yay, Craigslist!) A lady a few towns over was thinning back her numerous "herds" and...
