Where can I rescue hens in Colorado?

[chikndash]

Hello everyone,

I unfortunately ended up with 2 roosters in my 4 bird flock, so I need to give one up . I would like to get two or three more hens for my existing rooster, but I would rather find two rescue hens instead of buying more from a breeder. Does anyone know where I can find rescue hens in Colorado?

Thanks!

Look around on here under threads and go to the rescue category.

Also check the Colorado thread. Might be worth a call to some of these organizations http://www.sanctuaries.org/colorado.html

Where are you? The super large factory farms all seem to be in Weld county. I would think you could find cottage industry egg producers that only have 100-250 hens (sell at farmers market and CL) easily. It's that time of year.

Also, check poultryshowcentral.com for your state, or do an iso (in-search-of) advertisement, which is free. Poultry Show Central is better than Craigslist because it's mostly poultry people looking at it.
