(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I’m not exactly new.. my ex in-laws had a chicken that was beautiful and sweet and docile as a dog. I absolutely loved her and she definitely piqued my interest into raising chickens :) (2) How many chickens do you have right now...

Mostly looking for coturnix (jumbo or regular) and California valley eggs but open to others. Thank you!

I’m not set on a specific breed. Just trying to see what’s available out there. Thanks!

Hello all! Thanks for including me in this amazing community! I moved to IN in 2020 from Idaho and since the move I have been searching for ways to legalize backyard poultry in my city, Marion IN. I have found a small group of folks also interested in changing the law and some recommended this...

Hi there, I am located in Northern Indiana. Does anyone know of anyone local sellers within a 60 miles radius of LaPorte, IN with speckled sussex pullet chicks? Even possibly Indianapolis/Lafayette area would work as I have friends there that I could meet up with to pick them up! I have a...

I'm a homeschooling gramma with a 9 yr old granddaughter. I thought chickens would be a good way to stave off any food crisis in the future AND be really educational for all of us. Needless to say, this has just been TOO MUCH FUN. We got them before Easter and today they are in their new coop...

I'm selling 33 hens 2 & 3 years old. There is one rooster included in that count. They are mostly ISA Browns and 5 or so of different breeds. Please contact me with questions.

Hi i am looking for call ducklings. Do you know any breeders with in a couple hours of chicago?

One of our drakes, Bumpy, is in need of a new home. He’s a beautiful duck, but is picking on one of our girls and has been keeping our other drake from eating. The second drake has lost quite a bit of weight due to this and the hen has received minor injuries. Bumpy is six months old, gets along...

Hi! I've been looking for a Silkie and a Polish, but it's been really hard to find them (probably because everyone's into chickens during this weird time). Does anyone nearby have any? Alternatively, does anyone know where to find some? I've been checking Craigslist and chicken groups on...

First time poster - been following the forum for years now. I live in the Fountain Square neighborhood in Indianapolis and I’ve had a small flock of silkies in the backyard for 2 and half years now. Ended up with two Roos in our batch of spring chickens we brought up in the brooder. They’re...

I have three wonderful little weirdos who have been laying for months now very regularly. But one of my dogs have started terrorizing them and I don't feel like I can give them enough time and space for free ranging without predators around. Reese, Nemo, and Pipi (Silver laced wyandotte and...

Heya! I'm Jess; I live in Indianapolis; and my mum's doing the backyard farm thing in Falls of Rough, Kentucky. What?? You don't know where that is? No worries! The first time my dad drove me down here, I commented that it's about 20 minutes past all the good "murder you and chop up your body"...

I have a lone Runner drake that recently lost his mate, and would love to find a companion or two to bring home for him. Do not want less than a year old, since it's springtime (mating season). Would prefer to have a Runner of some sort, but open to other smaller breeds. Live in central Indiana...

I have 4 ducks. This is their first winter. They free range. Always have. They do not use a coop at night. Pretty much do their own thing. They have access to food and fresh water all day long and virtually no predators. What should I do with them this winter? I live on a farm. There are lots of...

I have raised 4 Buckeye hens since July 2017 when they were just three days old. They are now just over a year old. Named Trixie, Sadie, Heidi, and Dee Dee, they live out back behind the garage in the Fluster Cluck where they offer free peep shows daily!

I have two males (1 Blue Polish and 1 Turken) and 1 female I need to part with unfortunately. Malfoy (the BP) has started crowing more than I'd like for our ordinances. Otherwise, I have them to part with. Also a super cute coop that I'd be able to sell to go with them.

Exactly as the title says - I'm looking to buy 3-4 layers in Indiana! I live on the south side of Indy and have just finished building my coop; now I'm looking for some hens to fill it with. Ideally 3+ month old, and must be a friendly breed - I have a daughter and a whole herd of nieces and...
