    VA- Bielefelder hen from MS positive flock needs a home.

    I have a super sweet Bielefelder hen laying daily. She is the last one left from a Mycoplasma Synoviae positive flock and she's pretty lonely. I thought I would try to find her another suitable flock before we have to cull. Know anyone with an MS flock that may be willing to take her?

    I have a bone to pick with Richmond, VA.

    Help Picking a CoopCoop

    Hello, I have 11 full-size chickens, and no time to build a coop. I have pondered buying a storage building to make into a coop, but I was wondering if something pre-fab could be large enough. They will have a large pen to almost free-range in, so I'm not TOO worried about the space. I found...
