    New Chicken Owner

    Hi! I posted earlier about wanting to rehome the four pullets my family purchased today and now I’m having second thoughts. Let me explain!

    Rehoming 4 Pullets

    Hi! I’m in the CA Bay Area and purchased 4 pullets today from Tractor Supply (2 golden sex link, 2 Barred Rock) and I have realized I’m in over my head. I am looking to rehome them. They are happy and healthy and ready for someone who can care for them. Thanks!
