I just wanted to share that my first gosling has pipped! On the wrong end... I broke the hole open a bit more and covered it in a wet towel since it was starting to shrink wrap (it hasn't absorbed everything or I'd assist it). Funny thing is, I only turned these eggs every so often and never...
This thread moves way to fast for me...
I have a few questions, because, well, I can't price chickens at proper prices because around here, a pretty roo goes for more than a laying hen. And if you get $10 for a laying hen/pullet, you are getting rich. So here goes.
What do you sell 1...
Oh, and I just hatched my first 5 LF choc/mauve Orp project chicks this week! Four are choc pullets. I was seriously hoping for a mauve, but it's okay. I have more in the incubator! I am setting my last batch of eggs on the 17th, though. I need to shut the incubator down and clean/disinfect...
I need more Tolbunt eggs... I think both of mine are girls. Their crests are starting to round their faces. =/
Oh, Hi everyone!
Hope everyone is doing well! I can't keep up with thread unless I check in 5x a day!
With bantam Cochins, you do not want to cull now. No clue on Brahmas, but with bantam Cochins, wait. The feathers should be soft, but can be long. You just don't want hard feathers.
See? These guys look like they have wing feathers on their hocks in this pic. They are laying now and...
Well. I believe my bantam Choc Orp has gained his Napoleon complex. He came out the door attacking my daughter yesterday. I used him like a football to get him off her. -sigh-
I did hatch my first LF choc/mauve Orp project babies yesterday! Both choc pullets! Now I wish I had a LF choc roo.
My chocolates are being real pains about eating eggs. I really don't get why!? I have a wooden dummy egg in there and they peck at it but still eat their eggs. This is round 1.257 billion with them. I have a couple girls separated from the others. I need to clean out 2 more cages and I will...
I'll say...

I just set my last round of eggs until after June 8th. I am getting over 18 eggs a day. I just pulled the new chicks out of the hatcher, cleaned the hatcher out and got ready to set more eggs tonight...
How much are your geese? $10 each and $15 for shipping? Did I see you have aquamarine pied? I'll take 6! And can I get a 2 dozen Call duck eggs for $5, a hatching guarantee and free express shipping? Hey, throw in a few goose eggs while you are at it. And some chocolate candies. Thanks...
I swear, my 1st grade teacher had this exact one...

I was thinking about one of those from school while cutting my bubblewrap individually with scissors. Great to know you can still get them! I must have one!
175 pages... Sorry, I couldn't read them all. I couldn't keep up with you guys this weekend - to much going on. Between girls day out and sick chicks...
How was everyone's weekend summarized?
Haha... I wanted to be a smart arse originally and do a funny name like Its Just Fowl or Cluck U Farms. We aren't a farm and unless I get a horse again, we only have chickens, geese, ducks (soon to go), cats and a goat. So, farm being in the name just makes it all to serious sounding. I am as...
I posted a few pages back, with no reply...
Array of Feathers Farm or Windswept Feathers Farm?
AoFF or WsFF?
Array because I have many colors or Windswept because I live on a hill where the wind never ends. I personally did not like a location based name since we do not own it yet. I...
I suppose, this means I should get serious about a farm name, huh? Then, I can get my friend to make me a vector for my logo.
My choices were Windswept Feathers Farm or Array of Feathers Farm.
Unless someone has something else clever to add to the options.
I would really hope no one is that shady on here. That's just immoral. The eggs would be at least 6 days old and shipped twice! The chances of them surviving that would be nearly zero. Some days I forget there are people out there that are that dishonest. I live by the "do onto others as...
Haha. No, I am beat for what little I did today. Dewey did help some... He helped unload, lift and hold wood while I design, measure, cut and fasten. As usual. ;)
