    Calling all Penedesencas Owners/Breeders

    Thank you Ron. My daughter loved hugging the chickens when she was little but the penedesencas were so skittish and some of the hens and all the roos were aggressive. Now she is off to college. It has been frustrating to get all the pieces together to breed penes... just when I was about...

    You're probably going to hate me. I have a rooster and 4 partridge hens left. We've had several take a walk in the woods and never come back. They are so skittish that we never let them out. The two Wyandotte hens we have dominate the the pene hens. My daughter who takes care of them is off...

    Sorry for the loss of your birds. It is always devastating for the kids when they see a pile of feathers where once sat their pet chicken.

    Hey, I started my incubator again but failed to engage the egg turner the first day. Is this an egg ender? Should I just start over? So far not seeing much interest by locals for newly hatched pps...

    Tried the new incubator finally. 5 of 7 eggs hatched, 6th egg pipped but then went quiet. I'm going to try again later in the week. So what do you think?

    Hey y'all! Finally got a small flock going of partridge penedesencas. One roo and 8 hens. Hope to hatch some this summer. Seem to get about 4 eggs a day now. Got someone near Waxhaw, NC interested in hatching some of these too and starting a flock. Lost my Hangtown crele rooster...

    Calling all Penedesencas Owners/Breeders

    I would like to try and hatch some crele. My wife got me a Brinsea mini advance incubator but haven't any fertilized eggs. Though I think I should wait and hatch something easier. I didn't get good results from the eggs you sent from faraway California (1 in 20 ala Dagobert). I didn't get...

    Dagobert the rooster we hatched from the eggs you sent is very talkative and he is beginning to crow and get frisky with the old girls. Need to find him some crele hens for him someday...

    Very nice run and cute model too. We lost 5 pullets (Welsummers and Gold laced Wyandottes) on Christmas Eve. Something got the door open. Guess I am not the best coop maker. Fortunately our crele roo "Dagobert" wasn't nabbed. I got a Brinsea incubator for Christmas. Looking forward to...
