I order my chicks through McMurray's Hatchery-www.mcmurrayhatchery.com<BR/><BR/>You can order a straight run of females and they are delivered to your local post office.<BR/><BR/>It'll get better...angwww.fairsted.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-54548318870136557672008-08-16T17:14:00.000-07:002008-08-16T17:14:00.000-07:00I think you'll have luck with Craigs list.

No you say? *SIGH* I tried. I'm of the same mind as some of the others, maybe your neighbors won't care? Maybe someone on Craig's list is just dying for a rooster? Maybe it will be close enough for Maria to visit? Whew, lots of maybes!

I've so enjoyed your chickens and your family's fun with them. Even the sad times have not been without merit. It would be sad to see another one go away, but sometimes these things are unavoidable. I wonder what would happen if you went out with the express wish to buy rooster chicks?<BR/><BR/>(I was sad to hear about Rooster, Steve's pal - our little friends live such short and precious lives.)<BR/><BR/>Kia kaha Natalie, kia kaha.<BR/>(Be strong) xxcampbellgirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12492533463320726549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-9058235859415125812008-08-15T13:11:00.000-07:002008-08-15T13:11:00.000-07:00If you must get rid of Carlos, try posting him on Craig's List. I was able to get rid of my roos in a jiffy through them. Here's a link to the copy I wrote for the ad... feel free to use all or in part. <BR/><BR/>http://farmnatters.blogspot.com/2008/07/craigslist-advert.htmld.a.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10701833441665984965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-3700874986501546922008-08-15T12:28:00.000-07:002008-08-15T12:28:00.000-07:00Does Carlos Amelio have bad manners like Sunshine? If you are only worried about your neighbors complaining, then maybe you should wait until they complain. For all you know, they are hard of hearing.Anna Bananahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10824356086811880655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-47535696361785713782008-08-15T12:09:00.000-07:002008-08-15T12:09:00.000-07:00I'm sorry there's no more denying the true gender of Amelio. I'm sure other farmers have disappointments, too. And I love your ending comment ;-)nikkipolanihttp://nikkipolani.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
