    Langshan Thread!!!

    I'm so in love with all of them...thank you again!!! :-) They are definitely food motivated, and they know how to get the goods! Here's a funny photo sequence...this is Alecia, the single chick who hatched in June. We had to hand-raise her for a while and when she was a baby her favorite...

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    I think the red lobe is definitely something we're all trying to breed back in to the Crevecoeur...some of mine have almost a fully red lobe, but others have hardly any red at all. The cockerels seem to have more red in their lobes than the pullets...most of my girls have white lobes. I'm...

    Langshan Thread!!!

    Thought I'd share a few pictures of my darling girls... Hanging out after a dirt bath Athena checking me out Eating lunch "The Langshan Way"-From the top of the feeder... Huge thanks to Mikaela for helping me get re-started with these beauties! Soooo love them!

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    Hi Crevie Folks! Been a while (busy chicken summer!)...thought I'd post a few pictures of my crew... My boy William looking handsome and his buddy Bowie photobombing him. A few of the girls bedding down for the night... William getting photobombed again...this time by the...

    Langshan Thread!!!

    Hmmm...looks like a rose comb with a dark eye color...sadly not a Langshan, but a handsome fellow! Perhaps he has some Wyandotte and Australorp, plus something for the blue color? Andalusian or Orpington perhaps? Or a wyandotte/langshan cross that didn't develop leg feathers? I have a few...

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    I'm so sorry about losing your little one...it's always a heartbreak... I've had good success with the three basics: cleanliness, high-quality feed and good supplementation. Try to keep all your pens as clean as possible and your bedding dry. Depending on the stage mine are in, that can mean...

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    This photo sucks, I know...I'll try to get some better side pictures of my 2 1/2 year old boy when I can get him to hold still (he hates being photographed!) I would consider him show quality but with the white earlobe. He has developed slowly and is still gaining weight (but now about 7 lbs!)...

    Oooh...forgot to mention that I think I may have a bit of Urch's line in my guys as well...they kind of look like his too. Sadly, I've not been able to get in contact with him yet... :-(

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    I totally second this! Crevies that are being bred need to conform to the breed standard as much as possible (with the known issues of the earlobe color and lack of size being worked on.) I raised WCB Polish for a long time and true Crevecoeur DEFINITELY don't act like a Polish. Mine I would...

    Anyone Else Having Problems With Nutrena Chick Starter Crumbles?

    I'm going to be contacting Nutrena about this, but I wanted to see if anyone else has bought Nutrena chick starter crumbles within the last month in either medicated or non-medicated and found that the crumbles are HUGE? I've bought three bags from different feed stores (both regular and...

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    I'm working on developing my parent flock right now, but I should have some finished hens available later this summer (probably August-September.) This year (due to my smaller flock) I will be re-homing any excess breeding birds to people who already have a Crevecoeur and are interested in...

    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Thanks so much! He is a real trooper and is actually helping his sister who's having a rougher time (she's the one who looks like Scrat in the sleeping picture.) Up until yesterday she wasn't eating or drinking, but I watched him literally shadow her and show her how to eat! I kept dipping...
