    Blue leghorns

    I see. Well, do you know anyone with black leghorns?:D I have pure black Ayem Cemani's as well as pure black Svart Hona sweetish hens. I wonder if I could use those to start with or does it need to be a leghorn that I get the black from?

    Hello all, I currently have over 150 Mountain quail chicks here in southern California that I will have for sale in the fall. I am looking for those out there who would like to be added to my waiting list. I normally don't have to use a waiting list, as I always sell out, but with a bumper crop...

    Mountain Quail Hatching!

    I currently have over 200 Mountain Quail chicks that will be available for sale in the fall. I have been lucky enough to have many of my Mountains hatch together so it seems as though they teach each other how to eat. On small hatches, I have had occasional success simply pecking my index finger...
