Keipper is also at the larger shows in the Midwest selling, like the Ohio National in Columbas.

The next time I make a purchase from Keipper I am going to buy their "goose" size cages. I have an old double size large fowl cage, your standard lf show cage, but it is really too small for my Wyandotte males. Not wide enough for ample room. I did order some small bantam size cages a few years...

From this pic I do see the difference in the American/cross from the German male color. Thank you cbnovick. Nice looking male. He should be real nice once all done filling out. A keeper I think. Bob I think I know which picture that you are referring to and yes a stunner of a bird. When I first...

Thanks cbnovick. Agree, much of what I hear is that many people really do enjoy the German and German-American NH's. Can someone tell me is there are a real difference in the color of the "pure" Germans vs the German-American crosses? I guess it would depend on the line used in the cross. I...

Hi, Yes, from what I was told pure German NH, F2s. Took a couple of pictures with my phone this evening as I let them out to mill around in the grass. A friend got these for me in the late spring. April hatch sometime. Wish I had more of these. But I have 2 cockerels and 2 pullets to work with...

How much Calf Manna do you blend in? What properties or ingredients do Calf Manna have that a regular poultry starter-grower feed lacks? From my understanding some who raise "game" breeds will use Calf Manna as a conditioning supplement. A friend of mine has a neighbor who raises game chickens...

While I am not a Barnevelder guy, it would be much easier to ask Mr. Urch directly this kind of question. You will get the answer straight from him.

I wouldn't worry about the quality of the picture from your phone. This is still an excellent visual comparison of a hatchery vs standard bred breed.

Does anyone on here raise or have had experience raising White Jersey Giants? And what are your general thoughts of them?

Congrats for going forward with that source, you should have some very nice birds!

Yes there is. I got my Poultry Press today. Speaking of this months Poulry Press, check out the Stockton, CA - Pacific Poultry Breeders Association show section. From the picture, what is your thoughts of the White Rock female that won Super Grand Champion of the Show? There is also some nice...

I like him..charming color.

Regarding corn: iI have always mixed cracked corn into their regular feeds during winters up here. Never had any issues, but thats me. Done that for waterfowl, exotics, and chickens.

You did and thank you but all the credit goes to Jonathon Patterson for my birds. I got him when he was the size of bantam chicken and since has grown into quite a bird.

Makes the solid black or white birds more and more appealing from a learning/do no damage standpoint...but I'm pretty sure they aren't a color I'd want to focus on long term... Something that may need to be considered is the variety/breed that you are desiring are you considering the birds...

I am not for sure about Columbians, but Larry Dye is from Oklahoma and has some fantastic whites.

Thank you Walt. 20-wow! I sent you a PM. I met Dave Anderson when he was judging a MI show several years ago. Very nice man.

Curiousity, Who is raising these buff wyandottes on the west coast? A rarity to see good ones. The last big show for me was @ Columbus in 2011 & don't recall any. Idk of anyone on this side of the country except maybe Tom Roebuck..not sure of that last name.
