    Faverolles Thread

    Original stock were live imports from Germany where they are somewhat common as a utility fowl. Thanks for the welcome and the comments. Ill get some more photos of them up here as soon as I get another usb cable for the camera... it ended up in puppy-reach.

    The American Cemani Breeders Club...open forum

    I wont argue with you, however will speak from experience in saying the sheen does change on individual birds with conditioning. I have yet to see any purple on my birds, pure or otherwise. I see more purple on my Sumatras than anything.

    When will my adopted hens start laying?

    True. Hens usually do need an adjustment period before they will lay regularly. Some of my experience has shown some hens to take a month or more to settle in and get into a laying schedule.

    My Brahmas are "B" words

    Some birds just don't adapt well, but if you keep handling them and showing them kindness, they usually come around. Brahmas are normally pretty docile. Mealworms work wonders with even my most stand offish birds, if they are live and wiggling in my fingers, the birds come running over to...
