    Nevadans?

    Depending on what area you're moving to. Sparks allows chickens, but that's it. No roosters or waterfowl and they're pretty strict on how to keep those chickens. Reno allows pretty much anything as long as they're healthy and the area is kept relatively clean. Roosters are allowed but they fall...

    The Legbar Thread!

    Thank you, and sorry for the delayed response! I don't know much about the breeders except a photo my friend showed me of her flock. I noticed a lot of major differences between the hens and roos in the photo, including some with white legs. I knew my guy wasn't SOP, but I still appreciate both...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Campine

    Hi Everyone! I was wondering if anybody can confirm my chicks are in fact campines? I ordered silver lakenvelders from Ideal, one chick arrived dead and these were the others. The dead one looked like the lakenvelder chick pictures. After some researching, my friend and I came to the assumption...

    Cream Legbar Hybrid Thread

    Nope, I meant leghorn :-) unfortunately, the only legbar pullet I had died a couple weeks ago :-( she didn't even have a chance to lay a pretty blue egg yet. That's another set of hatching eggs I'm going to buy, some more legbars! The breeder I got my pair from didn't have very good birds...

    Cream Legbar Hybrid Thread

    I just saw this!! So sorry!! And to answer, yes! I have 2 blue Andalusian ladies. In a week or 2, I'll be putting them, my one leghorn, and 2 or all of my chocolate ladies in with my roo. I'm so excited! We'll have to post and compare pictures. I posted some pictures of my roo on the legbar...

    The Legbar Thread!

    So, what does everyone think of my cockeral? He's about 6 months old now. How can you tell if he has 1 or 2 barring genes? I know his legs are the wrong color, but I found out the breeder has a strange group of birds. Some birds have tiny single combs and some have large. Some are white legged...

    Do you have any updated pictures of the andalusian chicks? It's a mix I'm trying this spring with my CL over my andalusian girls, so I'm really curious to see how they're coming along :-)

    Is my cockeral a Jersey Giant?

    Such a bummer! Thank you both for replying. I really want a jersey, so it looks like Dixon will be finding a new home :-P

    Is my cockeral a Jersey Giant?

    Hi everybody, I know this has been asked a zillion times before, but I'm wondering what everybody else thinks. I got this rooster at a swap a couple months ago, so he's about 6 months old now. I was told he was a Jersey Giant. Well, I never thought to check his feet until a few days ago and was...

    Nevadans?

    Welcome to the north! I'm in Sun Valley. How many girlies do you have? I started with 3 and now have 40, lol! 7 are roos I'm trying to rehome though ;-)

    I'm not sure if they're a silver type because I don't know much about genetics, but there is a birchen marans. They're very beautiful! :-)

    The Legbar Thread!

    I'm not sure if they're related, but it's very likely they are at least half siblings. I'll be sure to ask the breeder when I see her again. Is breeding siblings a bad thing? A friend who raises black copper marans always breeds the girls back to her main rooster, but never to their sibling...
