    Do you own American Gamefowl and if not, Why?

    Results of first hatch. 14/18 hatched, 1 lost on day 1. Just another reason to enjoy the birds. Excited to see what the three yellow biddies pattern out as. Im unsure of dam, but they all have a spangled sire.

    What’s a good cross for my hennie hamefowl

    Cross back to something that compliment her look and style, then breed your hatch for the henny traits. Fix your style then paint it up.

    Do you own American Gamefowl and if not, Why?

    I’ve got 1.4 of them currently and a batch on the hatch. I’ve got them cause they are lazier birds for me. They take care of themselves better than any bird I’ve ever had and I can just breed for the fun of it. I gave up all my standard breed birds when I moved for a new job and honestly, I...

    Gamefowl trio??

    Black based birds for sure. Depends whats hot in your area if we’re guessing lines. Black or brassy looking to me though.

    Texas Auctions/Swaps?

    Short notice, but I just found out. I’m sure they would let folks move some birds. I’ll be going to check it out and taking birds the following month probably.

    Mottled Ameruacana Roo over Isabella Ameruacana hens?

    I decided to leave them out of my mess. Lol. Mottled pen, Barred/Cuckoo pen, and a BBS pen are good for now. Thank you everyone!

    ISO Single White Ameruacana-East Texas

    Looking for one hen or close to laying age pullet..older is fine. I’ve got blacks, mottled, a single ermine, and a lavender currently and would like to add a solid white hen to the group and to go under my Split Black roo. Thank you folks. Don’t mind buying outright or could trade if you’re...

    The Moonshiner's Leghorns

    I’ll have to do some digging on getting a hatch of them later on down the road. The California Grey's (Leghorn X Barred Rock old stock) I just got to start with might end up pushing me to get some. Lol. The boys have good taste, Barred Birds just do it better. 👍

    The Moonshiner's Leghorns

    @The Moonshiner Would you happen to have any information on the Cuckoos compared to other varieties you’d be willing to share? I’m a fan of a barred bird like no other and my wife is a leghorn lover, hadn’t thought much of them until I saw yours.

    Another Barred Rabbithole

    Hello all! Some of you may recall I have had Barred Rocks and the Ameruacanas…wellll. The barred bug bit again. I’m tossing California Greys in the mix as well. Lol. Still planning on a small pen of pure birds but… Egg color isn’t a factor for me and I don’t often sell my eggs to hatch so the...

    Texas Auctions/Swaps?

    Facebook groups galore for it..I just hate Facebook. Lol. First weekend of the month is Athens trade days and they usually have a fair bit. Been contemplating starting a local one our way (Crockett), if we can make the time or find the space.

    Mottled Ameruacana Roo over Isabella Ameruacana hens?

    Valid point. I figure the mottled birds will breed true, and the couple odd balls will show different. Luckily I don’t mind an experiment. Especially a free one. Lol.
