I know I saw and thought about it again. I even have broodies sitting on Wyandotte eggs. I was tempted. I must say. But need to concentrate on my SLW's now.
Hope that bear hasn't come back. :rant

Absolutely right Kern. PM's can help with information gathering and that is why we are here. To collect what knowledge we can.
I appreciate your knowledge Don and wait to see what you will freely give. Due to those who don't do well with a blunt comment I know you have learned to keep much of...
I hope that last didn't sound rude. It was meant more tongue in cheek since it was no kind of double speak at all. Ask and you shall be answered here (by somebody) right or wrong. Anyway I hope the link is illuminating. No hard feelings I hope
:thumbsup
Pardon me for not being Ron, but Duane Urch of Urch/Turland Poultry is a breeder of old time Standard breeds of chickens.
He has been around a long long time.
Here's a link. Ask and you might learn the lingo. Really just a small abbreviation...

Probably pretty bad if you want BIS chickens. :/ The cleaner the better.
All of mine are from breeders. 2 pretty hens from Peaky Beaky in the East and a pair from Chickenhill in the West Both have Foley lines tho Peaky Beaky has mixed in some other lines as well. . All are quite gorgeous, but...
Definitely always the expensive one. :barnie
I love how they stand out against the green grass which is rare here in California with our drought.
I hope you can find replacements. It has taken me several years to find and get a few grown out. Now I just need the boy to learn how to mate...
Thank you Cyrus83. This is the boy I had shipped in from Jerry Foley last year as an 11 month old. He was gorgeous, but alas was killed by my own dog. This years one and only cockerel is just getting to start with the ladies. Learning still. He is pretty nice, but not as nice as this one Jerry...
