Just a reminder that the Alabama Chicken and Egg Festival will be this weekend with their first ABA sanctioned Poultry Shows...one Friday night, Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon.
Also going on in the State is the Show at Fort Payne.

Christina and Fritz!
I'm certainly looking forward in seeing you and the kids at the Show. I've shown at Dalton but under the other Poultry Club, so this is my first for what so many of us with Alabama Bantam Club calls the "Bob Bridges Show!" lol...
I'm bringing the Silkies, and I'll get...
I have been extremely pleased with the Porcelains that I have purchased from Aimee. They are hearty birds with great hatchability from the eggs/chicks. Simply beautiful. Aimee, you WILL miss these as you chose to forgo this variety but rest assured I will always have these in my flock for you...
Hey Girl!!! We will have a hundred Silkies if I have to bring out my molted, rag-a-muffin old hens!!! It will be great.....
(don't forget to get me your entry)

We are making it a family affair too. Seven and nine are not much better...wait, what am I thinking, yes it is. LOL!!
Packing plenty of DVDs and hand held games!! And when we get there the hotel has a indoor pool. Margaritas by the pool...
I can only speak for my line of Delawares.
This is my third year of breeding these and I see that I have to give them plenty of time or I'll cull too early for this on the pullets. As young pullets, it is common for them to exhibit this...I have to wait until they are older pullets (around 7-...
Sorry Nick, I'm hatching for myself at the present. No eggs available.
Meanwhile, watch that under color on your pullets. Here is an example of a cull hen vs. a breeder hen.
And, I'm still using that same 'ol cock bird this year. His sickle feathers are white after all those molts...
