any chance you are interested in about 6 chicks?
There chicken mom had 10 chicks a few days ago, suddenly the mother chicken has not been seen in 3 days and 6 chicks are begging at my back door. They are about 3 inches tall. Since they are used to begging at my door and they are not fully able to fend for themselves, I wonder how many of them can survive. They would do good with human mother if they are caught while so young.

please let me know

Contact the Agriculture Dept. to see if they can offer names of any chicken farmers that are on properly zoned A-1, A-2 land that will take them. Try contacting Bethany Bradford, the Ag. Vet, if all else fails. 340-778-0998 and 340-778-0997 EX. 241
