    MARYLAND THREAD!

    Anybody interested in some Salmon Favorelle cockerels? I bought straight run chicks from TSC a few weeks ago and it looks like there are 4 boys of the 9. They would be 4 weeks +/- and are off the heat lamp. So if you're interested let me know. I can get pics. If you want them for food they...

    I've been twice. And it's only 5 minutes from my house. The first time I bought nothing. Just wanted to check it out. Last year I should have left the money at home!

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Thanks both of you. I saw the same thing. I have a slightly older pair of light bhrama I was comparing them to just being a little reluctant to admit the truth.

    They can and they do. I do have a 4ft and 5 ft roost which they use to get up but they fly down.

    If your shed has exposed rafters they will prefer that to anything you build them for a roost. At least mine do.

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    It was quite an upset. I have 12 girls and 2 boys which I got as day olds in February. I added 6 red sex links, which were 9 weeks old in a dog crate for a week, then a week where the sex links could go in and out of the crate but not the big chickens.

    You have only the three boys? I don't know how well that will go. There is a poultry swap saturday at Green Hill farm in Sharpsburg. They typically have older chickens so you would know what you're getting.
