    Backyard Brahmas!!

    I haven't posted here for awhile. Just want to make people aware of an experience I had with Greenfire farms last year. I ordered 7 chicks from them that were Standard Brahma partridge (gold only) for $99 a piece because I "had" to have the partridge color. They arrived half dead and one did...

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Appreciate all the help and reviews of my buff with blue penciling. She can just be a farm hen and I will concentrate on my partridges. I do have some chicks out of her (over a buff laced rooster) so we'll see if the wing issue continues. Ann

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Would like to have some of the more experienced breeders (big medicine?) tell me what they would call this hen color wise. I bought her from a breeder in Texas who called her a "splash". I bought two blue partridge and two gold partridge from her as well. She is wide bodied with a nice head...

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Hi everyone. I am in Tyler, Texas and raising partridge (gold and blue) Brahmas and a few "palomino." This is my 1 year old Palomino Rooster and his daughter who is 8 weeks. (Yes, I know none of these are recognized show colors) Would love to connect with Texas breeders.

    Selling some Cockerels and pullet Brahmas that are gold partridge from a well known hatchery. The 5 that I am selling all have vulture hocks which is an automatic disqualification for Brahma Chickens. (Vulture Hocks are extra feathers on the leg that protrude out the back.) The roosters are...

    Brahma Thread

    I bought six partridge chicks from a reputable hatchery and 5 grew out visible vulture hocks. Not sure about this one but they were all siblings so I know it carries the gene. I am wanting to start a partridge breeding program here in Texas. Would you breed this bird? It was born March 1st...

    Have you used chicken nipples?

    I wanted to say that we have also used the 5 gallon bucket system with our Blue Swedish Ducklings. I had read that ducks couldn't use a nipple system but the lead chicken person at Tractor Supply said they used it with their ducklings and it worked just great. It worked for ours as well. They...

    I have an Ameracuana rooster hatched October 3rd and raised from one day old. Came from McMurray Hatchery. Is vaccinated. Has green tail feathers. I sent a pic to dick Horstman because I thought he was a Blue Laced Wyandotte but he told me b/c of his ear tufts he was an Ameracauna. I only...

    To those of you who sell your eggs: How much do you sell a dozen for? Do you wash them first (mine are clean) Did you get any testing on them before you sold to friends/neighbors or at farmer's markets? If you refrigerate them pointy side down, how "late" do you sell them? Thanks, Ann Abrameit

    I saw some fertilized eggs online from the UK for $199 each! And he was out. You should make a killing if you get some! I may have to stick to the more ordinary breeds for a while. Thanks, Ann
