    Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons

    Their feathers are coming in so beautifully! This is a group of two separate hatches, which is why some are so much bigger.

    ISO Cream Legbar or Whiting True Blue pullets/laying hens

    I'm in KY as well. Where in the state are you? I have some CCL in the incubator. Finding laying hens of those breeds will be tricky!

    Searching for: Crested Cream Legbars near Nashville

    No, our local chicken swap was cancelled this weekend due to historic flooding! Have you searched on eBay? I ordered some CCL eggs from there - but didn't ask about the genetics. Maybe some of the sellers would know. Mine are from Green Fire Farms.

    Searching for: Crested Cream Legbars near Nashville

    They aren't! I can ask some local friends that have some as well and see if they have those lines and get back to you!

    Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons

    No, just first chicks of this type!! We probably had 100+ birds at one point. Eventually narrowed our flock down to a really great line of Bresse - but between raccoons and foxes, we gave up to the massacres. Now we're building a new coop/run on the opposite side of the property. Closer to...

    Should I hatch my shipped eggs upright or on their side?

    Just hatched two batches of shipped eggs (I've only ever incubated ones from my own flock before!). The first batch I received 8 eggs from Oklahoma to Kentucky. 6 made it to lockdown, and all 6 hatched! The second batch was 7 from Florida, and even though they spent 8 days being lugged around...

    Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons

    The difference a week makes! These birds are from two different breeders. Can’t wait to see how they grow out!

    Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons

    Me too! I am shooting for a flock of chocolate/chocolate silver laced/mauve/chocolate splash. My orps will have their own coop and then my flock of pretty egg layers is a totally separate operation. I like to have several irons in the fire :wee

    Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons

    Can’t wait to see how they grow out! Hatched from two different breeders, about a week apart. Currently at 10 healthy hatched chicks, with two more pipped!

    ISO Wellsummer / Maran Hatching Eggs

    Hi friends! I'm in search of heavy speckles. So far I haven't found any on eBay that've caught my eye well enough to purchase. Any leads on a source? I'm fine with pure Wellsummers or a maran cross.

    16th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Well I didn't ease back into chickening, I picked my crazy right back up where I left off and have set 7 chocolate silver laced orpingtons currently. Just hatched 6 last week, too! Tomorrow I'm setting 5 crested cream legbar, 6 BBS orpingtons, and 6 mauve orpingtons. Also have chocolate...

    I'm in Louisville KY - so about 2.5 hours away, but just put some crested cream legbars in the incubator!

    16th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Hi friends! After an awful massacre by a pack of foxes, I took several years off from having chickens. This year I've decided to rebuild a nice flock of beautiful colored birds, as well as some fun egg coloring!
