Beautiful!

I haven't used wing bands yet, but I know how to use them and they are pretty easy. The bird can't take them out, which is a plus. You can "remove" them, but its highly discouraged as it causes pain to the bird since you must plyer it out. Otherwise, the other method I know about is toe...

I really like the design of this one. Since I'm in FL I need air and shade. I can pin something like this against the barn or in a stall for the cold weather. I think I need to build 1 more tractor to try this out. All of the tractor designs posted so far give me some great ideas.

Thank you! Yea the weather has been crazy. I got a beautiful Rooster for my layers. This weather has pretty much snuffed any chance of me hatching anything from them. They are all on winter vacation. I was so eager to see what this Roo produced but looks like I'm going to have to wait xD.

Thanks! Most of my moveable tractors are at least that, so I can give this tactic a try. It certainly seems much easier to keep records for. I'm all about record keeping. This might also be more suitable for me, since my large pens are immoveable. I might use those pens for rearing young birds...

Minniechickmamma and I are talking : ). For some reason the thread wasn't updating me on her sale page. So I was very excited when I saw her respond

I really like this system as well. Since my pens aren't done yet, I was thinking about how I could incorporate something like this in my limited (allowed) space. While I have plenty of room "to" do it, the family isn't always on board with chicken ideas. Although I think they are coming around...

I've been emailing the breeders on the directory and its been unfortunately no response, none available, or a large waiting list (which I happily wait on!) but it is uncertain if any time this season I would get them. Have my finger crossed for a few more breeders to get back to me : )

Thats for the info! I'm still searching and researching this breed. Its a hard time of year to find any breed available but I seem to be having no luck for even reserving some chicks for later in the year.

What lines do you work with? Are you selling any hatching eggs this year?

Thank you! I'm learning so much about this breed and I am really coming to like this breed a lot. I prefer a friendlier chicken and Buckeyes seem rather inquisitive and intelligent. Along with that, they seem to be great producer's on top of it all. Can't beat that amazing color too.

Hey all! I've been reading and getting information on the buckeye as much as possible. I am really liking them and was wondering if anyone in FL had SQ flock they were selling chicks or hatching eggs from? Maybe even started pullets/cockerels? I recently acquired another pen and coop and may...
