Shameless plug: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=494543 Coop for sale. My mother built it with my guidance. It is rock solid... didn't budge in the weather. Heck, I'd buy it if I could! It's better than anything I built for myself!!!

Quote: Sorry, but I took a HUGE hit to the Delawares this year. Lost my breeding roos and a few hens and pretty much have to start over. I got a order of chicks comming in from whitmore farm and I'm on Bill Braden's egg-want list. The bantam Barnies are picking up their laying, though. It...

Quote: I got bantam Barnies and bantam white wyandottes (or is he set on the silver laced?) Both will be ready to get to hatching in spring, but nothing for sale now.

Quote: Alot of East Tennesseeans in here... like me. I'm in McMinn County, but I grew up in Monroe County and live so close to the border I forget I'm not living there sometimes.... I even went to Monroe County early voting place once to try to vote. They looked at me like I was crazy until I...

Hey neighbors! Just wanted to bring to people's attention the listing I have up for roosters. I got all sorts.... just giving them a chance at being flock leaders before I process. I do not want to sell or give them out for anything other then breeders or flock leaders. If anyone eats them, it...

Quote: I don't have horses, space for horses, or knowledge of horses... but I will spread the word to those I know who possibly could help. I'm not far at all from Blount County... half hours drive, so the people I know would be pressed for excuses not to help. I hope they all find good homes.

Quote: Thanks. I have been to Sweetwater a few times. Last couple times was to the big flea market there. Sweetwater is my "stompin' ground" I still call it "home"... live in Englewood now. Big price difference for same, even better quality homes. So which one of the two of you want some...

Mrs. Turbo : Quote: there is a guy named Warren that has our SLWs and other colors. [email protected] I got some that I got from backwoodspoultryfarm.com and now that line is being kept and bred by Ron Pressley. They are gorgeous... and by the way, I have two extra roos The pictures...

Hello all. Just wanted to pop in and say I have a bunch of pullets for sale on craigslist. Light brown Leghorns, Exquerier Leghorns, 1 Ancona, 1 Dominique..... lots more. I hope everyone is doing well. I have been so busy I haven't been stopping in much. Does anyone have a cabinet 'bator...

Quote: I'll PM you his BYC id name so you can contact him. k?

Quote: i practically gave away my wholesilkie flock to a BYCer in Kingston... he said he was going to get rid of some of the roos. They were all white and not show quality... but they were roos!! They got loose at the McDs... long story short, dog scared them, they knocked the door open to...

Quote: Where are you located. I'm gonna take a guess and say middle TN. I'm in west tennessee. As far west as you can get. I need a white silkie roo and it seems that everytime I need a certain chicken they are all to far from me. I do have a cousin thata comes this way from time to time...

cybercat - Just came home to a dead rat today. Cats were locked in the run for a few hours last night and apparently earned their food for the week... got a rat and a mouse! Good cat!

I think I lost mine to hawks too... after looking at all the info. Definately a raccoon out there too... hawks don't rip tails off. Hawks are bad this time of year... alot are migrating and so more active and looking for a good meal, as always. Oh, maybe I didn't tell you all..... Lost...

Quote: it's usually pricey, but I have seen fake coyotes put out to deter hawks. There is also "nite guard" and also ebay usually has auctions up for fairly affordable 50' by 50' netting. Good luck!

Quote: Depending on what it is, there may be no chance of "hauling it off"; Unless you drive it to Andrews or somewhere over the mountain. We had a raccoon problem twice. First time we released her about five miles from the barn, second time I skinned her and left the hide on the back fence...

Quote: Thanks. I live in a very "critter infested" area and went 4 years without any real problems. I guess it was time. I have lost one before while free ranging, but that is a totally different thing than losing one in the night while it's supposed to be safe in a coop. Well... technically I...

Quote: Thanks... they are still here. I've not been aggressively trying to sell anything here lately. I SHOULD be though... Lord knows I have a ton of birds I really don't need. lol. I'm sure she will be fine in the long run. I still need to capture this critter before it comes back and gets...

Well folks I finally got a preditor problem. I knew my luck would run out. I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of chickens getting eatten alive. Went out and everyone seemed alright at a glance in the dark. This moring...come out to find a partridge cochin pullet without the...

Quote: Yeah, that could do it! The first thing to go if a flock/line is overly inbred is fertility... short beaks... and thriving chicks. The SLW I got from a breeder, he admitted, were getting too inbred. I got 12 eggs, by hand delivery, and three hatched. I wasn't too mad, though...
