Small eggs? About how many per year per hen?
Sounds great. I keep getting sold on this bird. All ready looking forward to clearing the incubator out next week to get eggs ordered.
Thanks for the info..
My eight little chicks are thriving. They seem to be almost like Egyptian fayoumi in behavior as chicks. Great jumpers very quick and smart. I can imagine they would be great foragers free ranging. I will let mine free range but that's only gonna be after I hatch a few more my self. I have only lost a few birds to predators free ranging. But I would be devastated if a hawk got one of these expensive birds. If you read up on them they caught fish and all kinds of stuff in Sweden on Orust island. From what I read there's only like 500 Orust in the wild left. So yes saving them from extinction is a major plus like already stated. Ron are there any sure tell signs to tell male from female at young ages such as 3 weeks old?
What are rooster temperaments like? I'm not really interested in breeding other than to sustain my own flock, but generally like keeping a rooster around.
