Ann Horsman says the chipmunk will be some type of duckwing.

I'd send you eggs as well. My girls are from Ann Charles, and my roo is from Ann Horsman. I gave a local 10 eggs to test hatch for me. He got a 60% hatch rate. Beyond that what colors do you see these babies being? I see 2 black. The grayish one, not sure if it'll be blue or recessive white...

Is the fish meal used as a fertilizer as well?

Well, they'll be hens in 2 months. I'm putting in another dozen of mine along with some hatching eggs from another breeder. I currently have 7 pullets and 2 cockerels. 3 pullets and 1 cockerel are 18 weeks old. They'll be laying in the next 4 weeks or so, although they are much smaller at that...

Best guess bacteria. I didn't clean all things.

Well, River still isn't fertile, or the roo doesn't like her. 6 Bresse chicks hatched over the weekend. 2 never developed, and 17 died before hatch day, so I have to remove them tonight.

Hey y'all how's it going? I lost my cockerel to again a dog, I'm expecting one at the end of the month from Ann Horsman. My pullets are laying now, but obviously too young, and too small eggs. I'm lucky if they're over 40 grams. River is almost 2 years old and finally laying about a 60-gram egg...

I had 10 Araucana eggs shipped this year. 3 hatched, and are currently 2 weeks old and seem to be thriving thus far. Bresse were 2 weeks old when I got them somewhat locally. Once I moved them to the coop however, 7 escaped and my puppy killed them. I have 8 of my originals after I gave 4...

I understand that Ixworth are as hard to find as Bresse. Good luck finding one.

She did confirm that they were from Edd's line. On a happy note, I paid for my shipping eggs from Ann. She said she'll ship within a week, yay.

Do you have a website so we can see your turkeys?

I'll be interested in seeing any following posts. I have 17 Bresse, and plan to keep a flock for future meat birds. I was thinking of crossing in the future with Araucana for their personality.

Bresse are pretty large. On average 6-8 lbs. Marans are fairly large too. CL not so much, and I don't know much about Twentse

Has anyone else seen the pics in the fb group of the young cockerels for sale? I realized that they must have been Edd's line.

At last I have finally finished reading all 220 pages. I recently acquired 18 Bresse chicks from Keith Loeffler. I happen to live in NC, so I was able to pick up my chicks. I'm glad I was able to drive and not have them shipped. I'm also very glad I was able to read how they should be...
