Quote: Bummer! I had wondered what the results was with the auction. I broke down and bought some eggs from Eugene. I have had really bad results with their silkie eggs but I do not think it is their fault as much as the post office. They pack the eggs really well and are really nice...

Heidi, I lost again....it's just not meant to be. Maybe one day I'll find some!

Quote: Somebody wants to go for a ride........ or else she knows where the goodies come from! I think it was a little of both! Lol

CUTE! Heidi!!!! Just letting you know, I'm winning the Dom bid that is due to end Sunday...keep your fingers crossed for me!! Here are some pics I snapped yesterday! and a link to a video! Video:

Quote: Well, I did google it and I think I have 2 males. They show the spot on the head for pullets to be very round and the cockerels to be more starred. I think mine are starred. The legs come in to play also but I have nothing to compare to there but each other--and their legs are pretty...

Quote: I'm hoping/planning to go!! Never been to a real poultry show for the duration. I've just seen the birds well after judging at the state fair in Cola, SC.

Quote: That's awesome! I've forgotten to move eggs in my big cabinet incubator. I'll hear chirping and uh oh. I had one yesterday that actually fell down the back because it hatched on the back row. Fell down three rows of eggs and was behind the hatcher. It's a long way! Poor thing. But it...

I know its blurry, but by looking at the headspots, in my opinion, I think you got a pair!! You can google it and look here on BYC to find the particulars about sexing according the the leg color, head spots, and beak color. Basically females are darker (down, beak, legs) with a well defined...

Cheer Up, Lauren! My eggs are coming in much better! Can't help you with the cocci, though. Hopefully you'll get it knocked out...eventually!!

Quote: I wrote you back on the GA thread..and didn't wanna double post

Thanks for the congrats and funny replies everyone!!

Quote: Yes! That is exactly why I like them. Purely egg laying machines! I've thought about raising up some hens and crossing them with different roos to see what the egg colors would be since white is easily "washed out." True, Marans should give good cream color. I was thinking of an Amer...

Look at the egg laid by one of our youngest F2 Leghorns!!

I'm sure I missed the post(s), but I was wondering for those that went to the Barnwell Show...how was it?!? I wanted to go so bad, but I didn't get back in town until that afternoon and then it was just too late to drive down.

Quote: It may be on the current 30 egg auction. I was wanting to wait for him to put up another one! But I don't have patience. My wife will probably shoot me! I'm going to wait until tomorrow night when its closer to ending before I bid, though. Are you looking to get some more eggs from...

Quote: I LOVE EM!!! They lay really well for being young as they are. They are very friendly and talkative. They walk beside my lab and follow me around the yard just like a dog.! I would def always recommend this breed for ppl that have young kids. My niece and nephews love them as well!
