Darn I've been wanting Delawares, but I can't have any more roosters as I already have 8 now Good luck with finding them homes. The Pendescenas we got from you turned out to be 3 boys and 3 girls. We kept a trio and gave the others to our 4-H friends.

No - but you are in the running - as a centrally located member - to host a chickenstock.

Now you have time to change your mind at least 10 times on what breeds you want. I'll start my second coop when the day-olds arrive in March. Already have 25 ordered and I'm just waiting for the order sheet to come up for another 25 of a different breed. That will give me 76 all...
