Welcome to all you new members! I sneak in here one in a while, since I'm from near Hermiston OR but they let me in here too!

Divannah, I think that you need to click on Quote to get that done. I sure wish I could have roos but no go, here in town.Hey... what? I clicked on "reply" to someone's post about a coop which is maybe two pages back. Wouldn't that post it "within" their post? I feel silly.
Well, since I am writing, I have some lovely 7 week old Roos for anybody that needs them for their flock. I have three full blooded welsummers. The father is from a good breeder's line; the mothers are from Meyer hatchery but lovely and lay quite dark eggs.
I also have, from the same father, a cross with my barred rock. If you have welsummer hens, this would bring you one step closer to producing autosexing welbars. They are both handsome, and one in particular has been the friendliest fellow I have ever had. Since born, he always runs up and hops in my lap, doesn't mind being held, and is a fantastic forager. I sort of hate to part with him, but I can't have more Roos. Also, I don't want to breed him back with his mother, nor go the welbar route with my flock.
Lastly, I hatched a variety of Pip's and Peeps Ameraucana eggs. In another month or so, I should be quite positive about hen vs roo, and will have a couple black, one Lav split, and a pure white roo for anybody wanting to breed with these fellows. Right now I for certain have a wheaten roo and he is turning out quite beautiful.
If there is interest, I will take some photos and post them.
