After 14 years, I have to rehome my flock of 12.

I’ve had chickens since I was ten and I’ve loved every second of it. These 12 are my babies and this breaks my heart and is the last thing I’d ever want to do, but I have to let them go. The sooner the better.

My living situation has become untenable with my family and I’m the only one who cares for them, so I’m posting here in the hopes that someone can rehome them locally where I am in Douglas MA. I’m unable to drive but if you are willing to come pick them up then I don’t mind.

I have 6 older birds who still lay occasionally, two Cochins, a Brahma Cochin mix, an Easter egger, and a buff Orpington and light Brahma. They’re all so sweet and gentle and don’t mind being held or hand fed. My blue Cochin is also a fantastic momma and will gladly raise a brood for you without any outside help needed.

I also have 5 one year old birds who are laying like crazy as it’s their first spring. A light Brahma, black sex link, a silver laced Wyandotte, and two rhodies along with my Easter egger rooster who although is a bit testy is very pretty and good to his hens.

I’m willing to part with everything. I have food bins, a chicken first aid kit, some old waterers, an extra bag of feed, pine shavings, diatomaceous earth, sunflower seeds, etc.

Heck if you want to you can even take the coop. It’s in decent condition; just can’t be used as a tractor anymore.

Again, you can have all this for free. All I ask is that I see pictures and videos of your setup for them so I know they’ll be going to a good home. Feel free to ask for more pictures or any other questions.

They’d make a great starter flock. They all have such goofy and individual personalities. Especially my older girls. They’re all very happy and healthy too.

So yeah. Free flock of 12 healthy chooks to a good home :(
