Biefelders are auto sexing and are on the list in the link.
Are you an Aquarius? I am and that is me. Always need the unusual and amazing. You need some Breda chickens. That would give you your white egg layer.
They have no comb. Here in the U.S. they only come in Blue/Black/Splash but in Europe they have Cuckoo, White and another color that I am forgetting.
For shear riot of color their is the Swedish Flower Hens. There are the dainty Olandsk Dwarf also in a caliope of colors. There is the Sulmtaler with it's S-shaped comb and crest colored similar to Salmon Favorells and therefore you can sex them at 2 weeks by feather color. Appenzerller Spitzhaubin, Barthunners, Pyncheon bantams (crested multi-colored).....
Then there are the Maiden Rock Bantam (no relationship to other Rocks, it is the name of the place they were created). The come in silver, gold and cream spangled, barred and laced. And.....they lay a BLUE egg.
OMGoodness! What a heartbreak. DH says you should lien the property for the work you've done. File a mechanics lien for work performed on the property at the court house, this keeps the land owner from selling. It does not matter that you don't have a contract. After filing the mechanics lien, you have 2 years to file a civil suit (which you do not need an attorney to do). DH says your best strategy is to wait until the 2 years is almost up before filing the civil suit. This will keep the owner from selling to someone else before settling with you the money you're owed for work completed.[COLOR=4B0082]We won't be starting on the house and coop until our land purchase has been finalized. We had put a down payment on land in April and had cleared about 3 acres of the 8 acres and was starting on it and the land owner decided that after we had cleared it and spent $3000 on improving it plus the $2500 downpayment that he wanted triple the price we agreed on and we kinda learned our lesson not to start anything until everything is finalized. Here is a pic of what we had started then he screwed us over. We went to every lawyer in this county and surrounding counties and he had previously been represented by all of them that we gave up. We come to find out that he does that kind of thing to a lot of people. We had filled 1,000 bags....[/COLOR]
Oh, I so love the look of the Breda. I will have to start researching the breed and breeders.
I do believe that I may put more than one breed into the Easter hatch, Marans, EEs and hopefully the Bredas.
Yep, Aquarius here.
Very Interesting!
I tries making a splint for my silkie......her fifth toe curls under and she literaily WALKS ON HER TOE! I just gave up trying to fix it....I don't even know if its even fixable at this point being 2 weeks old....2 week old Baby Hawke pictures!!
Looking at her hatch mate.... her reflection. LOL
No matter how I splint her foot- this is how it looks after I take it off.
