Hello everyone!
I bought Heritage turkey poults in Early May with the plan to process them for Thanksgiving. Since I'm a noob, I didn't realize you needed to book way ahead for Thanksgiving. I was able to find someone who can process them next week, I was disappointed that I'll have to freeze...
I may be interested in your pair. I'm thinking about a new Roo since mine is related to all my hens... I hatched mine from eggs from Tricia in CA from here on BYC and Fossil Rock Farm in NY. Where did you obtain your Barnevelders?
pm me... i'm in mass, metro northwest area. If you want older birds, already laying....I have some one year old hens plus started pullets about 12 weeks old. I also hatch out my own birds, which are Ameracauna and Olive eggers (ameracauna roo over welsummer and marans hens)
These are my first turkey poults. They hatched on May 6th, so they're about 9 weeks old. Any tips on telling who's who at this point? Thanks in advance.
i have a few... 3 NH reds and an easter egger, about 18 months old. I'm in Mass though, about 15 minutes from Nashua, NH.... if you ever come down this way.
Hey sorry...just seeing this. Yes, they were vaccinated against Mareks and Coccidosis. I'm selling them as a trio only. It was a bantam experiment for me, but they're just too small for my LF flock.
i had a dozen going into lockdown, 9 barnevelders, which were shipped eggs and 3 of my own olive eggers. I just ordered Black Copper Marans and BBS OE's for next week!
I forgot what day I set and I'm too lazy to look. lol BUT... today is day 18, so it was somewhere around there. Going into lockdown tonight! 9 Barnevelders and 3 Olive Eggers.
I found a link somewhere on this site..think it was in the sticky thread at the top of this forum. I just took a playing card and cut it in a triangle to match the shape of the foot and taped it on with tiny pieces of first aid tape. I had a chick hatch a month ago with two curled feet and I...
You don't have to ever feed layer if you don't want to. I feed Purina Flock Raiser to all my birds, it's the best food for the chicks and roo's and if then hens need extra calcium, I always have oyster shell available.
