Resources for breeding show quality Old English Game Bantams

[Yard Farmer]

I suppose it’s hard to judge birds without seeing them present before you.
Do you know where your birds come from? I learned that it is immensely helpful to begin with birds that are close to the standard (from a reputable breeder).

Right, right. That's my predicament as well, I only know one breeder where I am.
Although, I'm hoping to go to a show this year to get a bigger out reach.
I unfortunately don't know where most of my bb red line came from, the person I got my bb red line from originally was at a show about 10 years ago and bought a trio, that's all I really know..
I need to ask if he can remember what line they are.
That's a good tip, I never though about that.
Thanks!

We have our flock all currently in one big coop. They free range just about all day.
We plan to raise numerous other quality breeds this year. Check out our website at lonestarchickenfarm.com

In fact we do have a trio of bantams available: that same cock and two other hens. @Yard Farmer, where are you located?

Dang, I see.
Do you ship, by chance?

 

[Yard Farmer]

Also, how much would you be asking?

 

[gerardogarcia]

I’ve never done it before. Everything we’ve sold is normally picked up locally. Probably around 60 - 75 dollars for the three.

Oh, alright. That defiantly makes it easier.
Wow, okay.
Have you shipped hatching eggs?

 

[gerardogarcia]

I have not, but I can see how that would be much more ideal.
