    Langshan Thread!!!

    I was given a choice for blue, black, splash or to get black and blue-- a blue over Mr. Beauford's black. I saw how fondly you spoke of him, and I did a search online for him also. He was a very capable breeder from the looks of what I found so I chose the blue over Beauford blacks. :)

    Langshan Thread!!!

    Well I've been trying to find a picture of a Modern, but I cannot find one. But just from the description they are very angular? So far as I'm concerned, if it LOOKS like a Croad and it WALKS like a Croad..... Thank you, RoPo. I'm pretty excited to be getting these and hopefully getting to see...

    Langshan Thread!!!

    Got it. Thank you, Dirt. I will not go into who or where, but someone was saying that the person I decided to get Langshans from doesn't have REAL Croad Langshans, and having looked at the photos of their birds, looking at the birds online, I fail to see how they could be anything else, and to...

    Langshan Thread!!!

    I am getting some Langshan eggs shipped to me on the 16th, and I'm looking forward to meeting these birds. My love has been the English Orpington, but there really is something about these Langshans.... Certainly, the thought of the purple egg is what initially drew me in and led me to start...

    The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

    Winters really vary here.... or at least they seem to a lot the last few years! Last winter was dry but stayed frozen most of the time. The winter before that was 40's and 50's. VERY nice!!! A lot of people on my little Missouri poultry group say they have better hatch rates in winter than...

    lol Yeah, it ended up being more than I pictured in my head somehow??? BUT I have always read about how bad hatch rates were with shipped eggs so I thought I'd better get enough. ...... I think I got enough. lol

    So, the big plan was to wait until Spring to order hatching eggs, but my boyfriend told me, "Here's the money. Do it now!" So.... I did! Anyway.... thought I would share the photos of MY English Orpington babies. lol I went a little overboard....maybe. I actually have to go buy a third...

    I will probably wait until Spring, but I was wondering if anyone here would/ will be selling BBS and Lavender Orp hatching eggs. If so, could I please get your info to contact you when I'm ready to buy, price per dozen, location either here or by PM? I will need to have them shipped I'm sure.
