I'm coming up first weekend of April with my 11 y/o son to hunt. I expect I'll be covered up in eggs by then from my hens if they start laying in March like the local birds do here. If anyone of you guys would like some eggs to set or some poults, let me know, and I'd be happy to bring them up. Otherwise, I'll be eating them for breakfast I can ship eggs, but would need you to cover the cost of shipping. I have the proper paperwork I will include documenting their legality, and I'm NPIP certified and AI clean (last flock test 12/15).
This is for those that are serious... if you have chickens and have ever had histomoniasis (blackhead) disease, I'd rather you not get the eggs/ poults, as they will just die. I gave one of my extra gobblers to a friend's father last summer. He lasted about 3 months under his care before he succumbed to blackhead Also, they will need to be kept under netting in an enclosed run, otherwise they will just leave your property and be devoured by predators.
Oh, my birds will be 2 y/o's this spring. The two gobblers are sporting nice, thick 8-9" beards at this point!
