    Hi, all! A little nervous about posting in this particular forum- I know many of you are breeding to type for showing and other purposes. Those of you who do that may want to smack me for talking about crosses. For that, I apologize in advance. I have had my flock for almost two years now. I...

    Standard Buff Cochin roo to a good home- Savannah GA

    Here's a bit of an older picture of my beautiful Banty (I thought he was a Bantam when he was a few days old but he's a standard- the name stuck though). He was our "exotic chick" from McMurray. He is absolutely the sweetest roo and I would keep him if I could but we're already keeping two...
