    Dominique Roo X Isa Brown hens offspring

    Dominique are auto sexing. You can tell the difference at hatch from males and females. Autosexing chickens breed true and sex links do not.

    Red Dorking X Delaware hen = Sex Link?

    Would this cross make a red sex link chick? I am can find no info on this possible cross. I was thinking with good stock this might make a good hen with possible broodiness and the Roosters would be descent heritage meat birds. You thoughts on if they would be sexlinked and how the cross would do?

    Lavender Orphington questions

    Questions for anyone who knows. 1. Are the hens good layers and are they broody? 2. Do or will they take the hot MO summers and cool winters? 3. What size eggs do they lay? 4. I am guessing that as a whole they are a fairly gentle breed? Thank you for your time and knowledge.

    trying to rebuild Great Grandmothers flock

    trying to rebuild Great Grandmothers flock

    I live in North Central MO. Some warm summers and some cool winters nothing too extreme. I have an incubator. I ask myself this question when doing things. "How did God do it" well he did it with broody hens. Because you don't need power.

    trying to rebuild Great Grandmothers flock

    I hope this is the right place for this question. With all the crazy bird flu and other general craziness going on I have decided to try and build a flock like my grandmother had (60+ years ago). As I think about it her flock was mixed birds. She had a flock that provided provided meat, eggs...

    Freedom Ranger New Hampshire Chickens

    Have any of you raised any of the New Hampshire chickens that Freedom Ranger sells? If so: 1. Did you process any for meat and if so how did they preform? 2. If you kept any how did your hens preform as egg layers? 3. If you kept any roosters how was their temperament? 4. Did any hens go broody?
