    Meyer Hatchery Chicken pics anyone??

    I have a white Cochin that I ordered last summer. She went broody about a month ago and has proven to be a great momma. I had ordered a Partridge but it ended up being a rooster. We were very disappointed. I just ordered a all hen hatchery choice order and got a Partridge hen (hopefully). Our...

    @KDOGG331 I have both Delaware and Silver Laced Wyandottes from last years order.I have to say Delawares are my favorite. Once they know you bring food/treats, they will LOVE you. My Silver Laced Wyandottes were younger and started on the bottom of the pecking order but I've noticed lately they...

    I'm guessing that is suppose to be a Swedish Flowing hen. She looks like a combination of the first two hens they have on the web site as examples. Also the last two reviews say they received poor quality. From what little I know about chicken genetics, I believe the molten pattern is very...

    I bought a Partridge Cochin hen. Well, I was suppose to get a hen. I got a rooster instead. Which, according to the color genetics specialists, he's not even Partridge. I also have a Blue Polish hen. She's pretty.I also have Silver Laced Wyandottes. I haven't taken pictures of them recently.

    Oooh! LOL! WNY Chicken Peeps is a Facebook group. It's set up so we can buy sell trade, ask questions, or post pictures that only chicken nerds like us appreciate. I just saw a girl post in the group about giving chickens garlic. So I thought maybe that's how you recognized my name. I have...

    From WYY Chicken Peeps? Well, if you want to wait until spring I can sell you one. Here is my Black Copper Marans hen's egg today. I'm probably going to start my incubator up in January.

    I was relooking at this chart and saw Partridge over Silver = Sexlink. I verified in the color genetics thread. And any solid color rooster over a pure barred hen will create solid color females and males will have a dot on the head and feather out to be barred.

    I love him. He's still filling in and getting more gorgeous. I bought a Black Copper Marans hen to pair with him. She's super sweet also. Both could use more feathering. (I bought another Black Copper Marans rooster for a customer through Meyer and it did have more feathering) Then I decided to...

    I forgot about our Jersey Giant hen! Thought she was an Australorp Until she wasn't as mature as our other hens and then found the yellow under her feet.

    I knew it was a risk. But I had read in comments about how some orders included sought after pairs. And since I eat roosters I don't want... It was a win win for me, lol! This spring will be fun with all my hatching plans! I have a top notch incubator that incubates 42 at a time and a husband...

    I ordered Copper and Knight. Then I ordered 10 Adopt Me's. I got 2 Dominique roosters, 2 Dominique hens, the Jubilee pair, a Golden Buff hen, a Barred Rock rooster, and 2 Cochin roosters (blue and white). I hadn't planned on keeping the cochins but my family fell in love with the fluffiness. Now...

    Since I'm on here, I'll add some updated pictures of my April Meyer order. Here is Copper, a Blue Copper Marans. My daughter fell in love with the rooster in the catalog and thus started our addiction. Right now he greats us but keeps his distance (respect) Sandy, a Black Copper Marans. She...

    In my experience roosters don't mess with the top hen. And a healthy pecking order, in my opinion, teaches young roosters manners.

    Meyer Hatchery Chicken pics anyone??

    We got an incubator for Christmas and I knew that we'd be constantly adding new chicks. In the coop we have a 2 by 3 foot spot where the little ones can escape but the top SLW hen was so bad and figured out ways to get them. When I added a sweet Cream Legbar to the group I couldn't stand the...

    I had two Silver Laced Wyandottes and a golden laced Wyandotte (not from Meyer). The 2 silvers were top hens but not nasty.... Until I started adding to the flock. They were relentless at terrorizing the little ones. So I gave them to someone else. My Golden Laced Wyandotte took top hen position...
