New member here. I'm from a little swamp called Kelly, AL just off the Choctawhatchee River. I have about 30 birds at the moment. Back a year ago I was able to trap about a dozen wild swamp chickens (I've been told they are a mix of Game, Malay, RIRs that were released or escaped during a hurricane about 15 years ago). Spring of '17, I bought about 30 various bitties from TSC. About 1/2 died within a day of getting them. TSC said it was a bad batch of birds. Any way, I've been reading BYC for a while now and would like to thanks every one for sharing their wealth of knowledge.
