YAY! Thank you for the pictures! Let me know what the results are of your egg age experiment.

I'm loving all of the updates on them! Thanks so much for continuing to post about them! I am so happy they are just as productive and fun for you as they were for me! I miss them, but it's nice to see them carrying on!

Yes. If she is brown with a white dot, she is female. If he's more of a light tone all throughout the body and a bigger dot on the head that spreads out, he is a male.

I'm so glad they're working out so well for you! They were always my most productive birds. Wish I could have kept them, but time demands just got to me. I'm so glad you are enjoying them!!!

Let me know how it goes. The great thing is they are white eggs. So, you can candle pretty easily. :)

When I hatched them before, I did learn a few things. First, they seemed to be one of the most fertile breeds that I had. Second, I after trial and error, I found the best way to hatch them is dry incubate them (no added water the first 18 days). Then, do not turn them day 19-21, but add water...

I'm so glad that I was able to help! They are one of my favorite breeds! Please post pictures of chicks and I hope you enjoy them for a long time to come! :)

I do enjoy my Jaerhons, but I'm pretty sure I need to cut back. I am definitely a luck guy with my Rees Legbars. They seem to have large crests and better cream coloring than my other Legbars.

So, now comes the time for me to decide whether to keep my Jaerhons or part with them. I've been doing a third masters, working full time, joining a new therapy cohort with the state, trying to manage a small farm, and keeping a social life are not wise to combine. I am only on here today...

Can you be more specific on who you were trying to reach? This is a thread for the full breed. So, many different people post here.

I have only dark Jaerhons. If anyone has a flock of dark Jaerhons not related to Amyable's birds, I would love to do some trading.

Thanks so much, Dr. Netland! I thought I remembered reading that somewhere, but then I couldn't find where I read it.

They should be white or off white.

Where are you located?

I'm hatching very limited numbers of Jaerhons this year if anyone is near Southwest Lower Michigan and wants to get into the breed.

Congratulations! I had great luck with Amy's eggs. I started mine on slightly lower protein and added ACV to their water for the first 2 weeks. They're now 2 months old and I haven't lost any. :D

They can be bred together. However, in order to maintain the colors, it is best to keep them separate. Otherwise, you'll have some recessive genes hiding that will be hard to get rid of later on if you should want to.

What does everyone do with their extra roosters? Since I have 6 males and 4 females, I need to get rid of a few roosters, but can't imagine that they would have much meat on them. Amy, those chicks I got from your eggs are still going strong. They are 2 days shy of 2 weeks old. So, fingers...
