Hello hisbride,

I'm not to far from y'all up in Rome. I raised chickens as a kid and just recently started again with 28 day old chicks. They're about 10 weeks old now and doing good. They've been getting fat and sassy recently because I've been feeding them most of a crop of sweet corn that was ruined by worms.

It's funny that you should mention Black Cochins. As a kid my favorite hen was a black Cochin. Because she was so gentle, I ordered 3 Black Cochin roosters to go with my 25 assorted laying hens.

Why are you getting rid of one?

Here's a pic of some of mine at 6 weeks.
