We use to have a lot of OEGB's in a lot of the colors, but nothing in about a year. I went to Ideal to order and saw the white tail reds and I knew I had never seen any in the past. Got me interested so I started searching for images of real birds, but I have still found nothing. Makes me want...
Thanks. I assumed they did exist since Ideal is selling them, I just can't find photos of any. I know they are not a recognized color, but I can only imagine they would be one of the best looking varieties of the OEGB. I think I'll go ahead and order a dozen or so.
I am wanting to order some of these from Ideal, but I have searched and searched the net with zero results in finding a photo of one. Do they really exist? Someone PLEASE post a photo or give me a link to a photo of a White Tail Red OEGB. The photos on Ideal's site are just painted...

9 out of 10 barnyard mix eggs for my father-in-law.
I will probably set a new batch of eggs today. I need a few more hens.
Ideal is shipping me 12 next week. I only had to pay a little over $1.00 for insurance instead of getting males for warmth. I'm not sure where you are located, but I am in South Alabama and my Ideal orders always arrive overnight. It would be best to make your choice based on a hatchery closest...
Mine shipped from Ideal on the 21st as well. I ordered an assortment of 25 bantams. No call today, so I suspect it will be tomorrow morning before mine arrive.
If anyone has lots of free time on their hands today, I would love to hear some guesses on what all I have. They are 6 weeks old and I have an idea on a couple or more that might be roos, but that's about all I know. Some are Games, some are pure, but most are mixed breeds. I'll give the best...
