    Rooster in West Chester, PA needs a new home!

    Anyone interested? He's been hand trained by the kids and a pretty nice guy so far. He's about 20 weeks and just found his lungs about 2 weeks ago. Can't keep him in our township.

    Just popping in to say HI!

    New chicken mama here with an existing flock of new layers and a set of 3 gifted school incubation project chicks! Never realized chickens could consume so much time!

Two are supposed to be easter eggers and one an olive...
