Nice set up. Love the last b/w shot!

I never heard of someone using our pictures to say thier eggs or chicks will look like this. This is fraud. You have to becarefull as some of these people are in it for the money and you better ask us first befor you buy eggs on ebay or where ever. There are very few people who have these kind...

Quote: Yes, they do take awhile to start laying. I want to say 8-9 months. They come into lay pretty strong and consistent. An egg every other day on average. They lay pretty good, then just stop. And I mean stop...Then outta the blue they start again...fair consistency at best. The roosters...
