Thought some of you might enjoy pics of my breed.

I don't understand color genetics very in depth. I do know some of the basics. When I want to figure the results of a cross I pull up the web site of the chicken color genetics calculator. Having said that I've hatched several generations of Buckeye chickens and overall about 1 out of 10 ends up...

Today is day 19 and I have 2 pips. I have 36 eggs and hoping for a good hatch. Fingers crossed!

Hey all! I had mentioned in an earlier thread that I use an old FI model 4200 incubator that I bought at a yard sale for $10.00. This incubator has always been very inconsistent with temp and humidity. This required me to keep constant watch on it and make several adjustments per day. When the...

I originally posted this under another thread but felt it was more appropriate to start a new thread. I've been developing my own dual purpose breed for several years. This first picture is a rooster several generations into the project. He became the foundation sire.

Several Malay roosters available.

One 2 y/o BBR. Two 1 y/o Pyle colored. Four Malay laying hens (one free with each rooster purchased). The BBR and laying hens are my original stock and are average quality. The Pyle roosters are above average quality.

I went to a college graduation a couple years ago. One of the honored, featured speakers was a lady who had taken 13 years to graduate. Along the way she had kids out of wedlock, several lost jobs, substance abuse and public assistance, etc. At first glance this is an uplifting story of a woman...

I have several Malays and Shamos. They are friendly and lay well but I don't know much about the breeds. They do get broody and I had one hatch 12 this spring. Do any of you know much about these?

also known as a GOOD (get out of dodge) bag. who has one? Why? And what do you have in it?

About 1 week ago I cracked an egg and thought maybe it looked a little too orange, almost red. I didn't pay too much attention at the time. Last night I cracked one and it was extremely bloody. There was something else in there too but there was so much blood I couldn't see what it was. I...

Is the cold and snow making it tough for anyone else to keep their coop clean?

Can't ship. I have 5 GC hens and a rooster. 3 BA hens, a blue rooster and a splash rooster. Located in Ky. Approximately 1.5 hours east of Lex. PM me for more info.

My broody Campine is now the proud mother of 2 campines and 1 Andalusian, so far. There are 3 eggs yet to hatch!

One of my Golden Campine hens is setting on 8 eggs. I have 5 campine eggs and 3 blue andalusian eggs under her. Neither of these breeds is known for broodiness. Wish me luck!

I have my best golden rooster and 3 best golden hens in one coop/run. I have my best blue rooster and 3 best blue hens in a second coop/run. I'm left with a nice splash rooster and 2 golden hens in a third coop/run. What will their off spring look like and what could they eventually become? By...

I don't free range. I do have 2 roosters, that I don't especially want, who I leave out. They've been running loose, day and night, for about 2 months. As I was feeding Tuesday a hen escaped. She has always been very flighty and frequently tried to escape. I couldn't catch her or lure her back...
