Thank you i been looking but most of the meat bird stuff is on cornish x not much on anything else

if i have to cull extra roos, i do it about 5-6 months and they stay on gamebird (26%+ protein) or meat bird diet.

lol we have one breed that will be show chickens for my son. he is now learning basic care of them but he is only 6. He chose the breed by himself and a very good one. Im proud of him. he chose Nankins which are on the critical list because and i quote "i want to save more of them and show people how handsome they are mama"

he is. I'm so proud of him. All my kids really but the others are quitenold enough to understand. My step son still thinks all chickens are roosters and refuse any different and my 4 year old son is still kind of afraid of them and just likes to watch them. Unless they are babies he wants nothing to do with touching them. And my other on is 7 months and just likes touching feathers.

That is so sweet yeah my daughter is five shes showing Millie Fleur D'Uccles decided something small would work best first tried silikes but having to hold them the whole time they get heavy after a while so we switched

Hi all! I live in NE Indiana and have a gold laced Wyandotte cockerel (currently 11 weeks old) for sale/trade. He is going to be a beautiful rooster I think but he's challenging my Golden Polish cockerel (the one I want to keep) and I don't have space to separate them. Henry (the GLW) is becoming territorial over my GP pullet. We have 13 pullets and space for everyone in the coop and run. I just don't have a separation option.
This photo was taken a week or so ago. He's grown quite a bit since then and is beginning to get some green in his wing feathers.

All of my GLW ladies turning out beautifully.
