    A gentleman who purchased some birds from me was selling chicks and eggs a few weeks ago, I could get you a copy of his ad. I don't ship hatching eggs.

    I have a couple of young Grizz and Silver Barred, possibly a Splash trio. I could send photographs, if you are interested. Let me know.

    I do not, at the moment. I am focusing on Genetic Hackle Fowl. Once I solve their mystery, I probably will come back to Pycheons and Polish.

    Here is a video that is interesting because it shows the incredible variety of other breeds Tom Whiting is crossing into his birds:

    Thank you for the nice compliment, I hope some of the data I provide is useful. There is so much yet to be learned about raising and breeding birds, their biology & genetics, and it is constantly changing and being added to the older information.

    Yes, it’s always a problem with roosters, and we eat the extra ones here, too. And, you are right, it’s not the same as throwing away perfectly healthy hen chicks that could be used for eggs as well as meat. I don’t know what the hackle companies do with the carcasses, either. You would hope...

    I absolutely agree! Good grief, so these are useless to him? Half the genetics are those of the hen, how would you know what you are carelessly throwing away(but in this case actually throwing away? I watched just a couple of his videos, but did not see that one, but I am certainly glad you told...
