I don’t want to start a big DE debate, but anyone that hasn’t used it before should do a lot of research before they try it. Please.
Happy New Year everyone!
Awww poor Daisy. Maybe she will return someday! :hugs
I totally understand because my Dudley is technically Dudley-2. Dudley1 got out of the yard and got hit by a car and killed. We were devastated. Got Dudley2 in Sept, 2011, he was about 12 weeks at the time. Hard to believe he is 7 years old...
I realize this is the BCM thread, but I think a few of us have CLs so I certainly don’t mind the rambling, hopefully no one else does either. :D
I really know nothing about showing, and am still barely learning both these breeds. I have always wanted all of my breeds to be as close to...
I’ll get some new ones this evening and pm you. She was the smallest for a long time, and had a much lighter breast color. But now they are all about the same size and I have a couple with lighter breasts. I assume she is one of those.

The male and one of my 5 pullets came from eggs from a member here. I’m not sure what lines they are. I don’t think she knew, or I can’t remember.
The other 4 pullets are supposedly from GFF birds. I...
Thanks! I like it. :highfive:
I couldn't eat him anyway. :D
I like your birds. Did you say you've had the breed before or are these your first? I think you'll really like them.
All makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
(The solid black chest was my favorite part of the cockerel I had)
I really like the blues and blue copper, but I just might have to look into the Birchen
Thank you. I rarely see that comment. :lol:
Seriously though, I think you have some great project...
Question. What is it about BCMs that make them so hard to breed consistently? I’m not even sure that’s the proper question I’m trying to ask. But like why do weird things crop up so easily, like extra points on combs, hackle halos, high tails, heavy color, light color, etc.
Is it just the...
