We have a rescue pair of Old English Game Bantams, he is Self-blue, she is blue. He needs another hen so she can lay an egg in peace without him trying to sit in the nest! 🙄
Hi all! I'm just about to jump into the backyard chicken game and am very excited! Have been doing research for a while and just found someone giving away a coop and 2 young hens, so am taking the leap this weekend!
I'm in Tacoma Washington and have a relatively small urban home we bought this...
Free 11 month old RIR/red sex-linked rooster. Downsizing flock. great protector of hens. Respectful of people. He has jumped at me a few times , but he’s still young.
We have a sweet, three month old lavender Orpington rooster in need of a good home. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to have roosters in our neighborhood, but I would keep him if I could!
We really wanted bantams and they only sell them straight run. 4 out of the first 4 are boys. :th:hit:lau These are my daughter's first pets, and we raised them from babies, and we'd both like to keep all if we could. We are hoping they find a home nearby. The most handsome, a golden laced...

Hi there! I have a heritage bronze gobbler that needs to go. I'll miss my fluffy boy but he's decided my toddler is competing with him for mates. He tried showing my son who's boss, ahem...
Hi! I'm looking for 2 female chicks only. Some breeds that I am looking for are ayam cemani, cochin (both bantam or standard), and silkies (again either bantam or standard). I'm not too picky about colors but I do prefer a black or white.
I live near Seattle, WA and I'm willing to drive out a...
I joined BYC quite a few years ago when I lived in NC and kept a laying flock. Since then, we've moved around the world. Now we're in the process of settling into our permanent home in Kitsap County, WA! I'll be posting in the state thread since I'm hoping to meet other chicken keepers in the...
I’m new to the site and to chickens! I have 4 hens, one New Hampshire Red, one White Crested Polish and 2 EE. They’re about 8 weeks old. (So far they’re all hens- let’s hope that’s the case because I live in the city and no roosters are allowed.). I also have 3 dogs, a German shepherd, a toy...
Please tell me when town grows up around an established elderly man 75 years old pet rooster 15 year old can not get charged a hundred bucks a day for keeping his pet rooster just because they built houses on same farmland he sold off 8 years ago and new neighbors complain about him Crowing 4...
My well-house where I had my hen temporarily bivuoacked was broken into by some creature that wanted chicken tartare for a late night snack. She's fine! She flew up into the rafters.
Can anyone id the animal who this damage? To help narrow down the possible culprits: I live in NW Washington...
Hello,
I will be moving soon and am looking for a new home for my 2 chickens, Roxanne (cream leg bar) and Rhonda (Rhodebar), they are both almost 6 years old so past their egg laying prime though they still lay occasionally. I would like them to have a happy retirement.
Hello,
I am new to this forum and live out on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state.
Sad to say I lost 2 of my beloved American Buffs to a predator yesterday. My one remaining girl is lonely and afraid now and I am desperately looking to find her a partner. Does anyone have a lead on some...
Hi,
We will not be using our mini alpine for breeding and need to find a new home for him. He is a beautiful blue-eyed boy. He was born in 2015. His Dam came from Sherman Farms on Vashon Island, WA
I live in Washington State, not far from Puget Sound. Our microclimate tends to be a bit warmer and drier in the summer and colder and wetter in the winter than most of western WA, but overall temps are moderate and winters are mostly chilly and damp.
My coop floor is concrete pavers dug in a...
I'm sure this has been asked 1,000,000 times but I'm new and a little overwhelmed finding specific help.
A few days ago I bought 9 7-8 week chicks. I believed they were coop ready, but found out AFTER I purchased them that they were still on the heat lamp :hitmostly at night. I don't know the...
Greetings! Heard about BYC years ago listening to various podcasts as I began my quest to learn some chicken lore.
We know that we'd be moving the end of 2017 and wherever it was, I wanted some fresh eggs. We ended up north of Spokane, WA on just over an acre. I built a coop and am in the...
