The Amish on Ryceville rd. The same road you take to the tack shop.The first right I believe has a sign for chickens.
Thats where I get all of my hens. I think they charge $3-$5 each, they'll box um up for you too. You can go to the farmers market, but they never seemed as healthy as the ones from there. JMO

Lancer, please give me a huge hug and kiss for me!!! I'll let you know when the sneak attack is planned for Mr. Peacock,,right now he is trying to swoon the hens!!
I'll try and find the number for the fellow who has all those different types of birds. I think I remember him living near Mechanicsville off of Pony Rd???? Something like that,, maybe it was Pinto?:shrug:

TC I have a few chickens you can have...

mail order though you have to buy alot of chickens, guineas and peas we only want a few so we don't have to buy eggs . we don't have the space or money for that many birds.

ya I know I hope all this snow is gone by then I don't think Z wants to raise them in her room again :whistle: but then again we did not have a barn before .. Passo I might need to borrow your cage again .. cage for a homemade chicken?

TC I have a few chickens you can have...
