Have checked fertility rate and have excellent hatch rates. I have Lay/Urch lines. $40 includes shipping. I wrap each egg in bubble wrap and cushion bottom and top of box to prevent eggs from moving around during shipment.

Someone was asking about Buckeyes and who raises them. I have been raising and breeding them for the last 3 years. This year I hatched and sold close to 200 chicks. I am listed in the Buckeye Breeders Directory of the American Buckeye Club. My last hatch was back in July and now the girls...

I just went to the page where all the swaps are listed. I had the Wilton Swap listed on the page with all the dates. Now they have all been removed. That just goes to show your true colors Hoppy, Bobbi, or Alley, whoever you happen to be today. No wonder people come here and don't hang...

If you want to raise Icelandics then contact Muddy Hoof Farm in Lubec. I sold her some of my breeding stock. I kept one hen who is the mascot for our chicken swaps. They are winter hardy alright. Widget is right, they do not like confinement at all, If you plan to pen them they need a...

Sold, is it possible to get 2 dozen, they can be shipped back to back weeks.

that is what my friend has, two of the big sportsman cabinet incubators

87jmchugh, I used 1 ml tuberculine syringes that came with 1/2" needles. they worked perfectly for the chicks. Vaccinated 48 yesterday with no mishaps, just make sure the vaccine goes under the skin and not into the muscle.

the one at tractor supply for $30 is a styrofoam Little Giant or Farm Innovator? they are still air, they hold 40 chicken eggs. The brinsea also turns your eggs and has a fan. They make a big difference in your incubation.

Received my eggs last week and all were in great shape and wrapped excellently. Thanks for doing a great job. Polly

I raise Buckeyes and Barred Rocks and cross them also to produce black sex links. All the males are used f or meat and turn out fairly well. Both are known for being a heavy bird. Yes it takes longer but is a great alternative to the cornish

The Mereks vaccine will have to be ordered on line unless your vet can get it. I just got mine from Hakes Twin City Poultry Supplies in Ohio. Two days it was here. Total cost was 33.50, the cheapest I place I could find. You will have to get needles and syringes also. They send very good...

I was thinking about coming up there a few times this summer. I do the Wilton and Rumford swap with a friend so am usually there. But if it works out right can go to the Augusta one.

I started with eggs I ordered from a breeder in MN. I then ordered eggs from another well known breeder in Ohio followed by receiving live chicks from my friend in MN. I am now a listed breeder of the Buckeye for the state of Maine; I have chicks available and will be at some of the swaps...

Hi TildaMai, for your consideration of a very good chicken for Maine Climate I put forth the Buckeye. They are a very good dual purpose bird. They do well being kept in a pen and run or free ranging. They are the only American breed to sport a Pea comb making the danger of frostbite...

I will be setting eggs for the hatch-a-long also. I will set 30 Buckeye eggs, 18 Barred Rocks, 7 Lavender Ameraucana, 11 BuckyBars and 4 EE eggs.

my friend has a Brinsea Octogon 29 Advance with the humidity control pump. She used it for 2 hatches but decided she would instead keep using her Sportsman. She paid well over $500 for this unit and is asking $300 for it. It can be shipped, it is located here in maine here is a link to the...

A radio is very helpful in keeping alot of these predators away. I know there are fox, coyotes and raccoons around my farm, I play radios 24-7 and haven't had anything come around
