Does anyone have any info on the different breed clubs that might be holding meetings at the national? I know that the Buckeye club is meeting at 11 @ the food court - what about the others?
My long suffering husband has put his foot down. I am no longer allowed to raise chicks in the house, or garage. I can't really say that I disagree (filthy! dusty creatures!), but I need to start raising chicks in Feb. to get ready for the show season next year.
So here are my questions:
Can I...
Can I have two pages/names/??? at the same time?
My hubby keeps logging on (to lurk, not post) and it is driving me crazy!
Recent PM from angry friend, "I thought you said that you were sick? But you were on yesterday and didn't answer my post".
HHHEEELLLPPP!!!
Looking for hens or a trio.
Seller must have pics.
I am not interested Easter Eggers, or just a rooster, so please don't ask.
ETA - I am willing to pay shipping for the right birds.
There is no record of the private messages that I have sent people.
I am beginning to think that the PM's that I sent in the last few days did not go thru.
Can anyone help me?
OK, let me start by saying that I know that lard comes from pigs, but I didn't have any pork fat, so I used what I had.
Whenever I trim meat for dinner, I always save the fat and meat scraps. DH said we needed the room in the freezer for real food, so I decided to thaw it all out and put it...
So I bought a whole rabbit from the local farmers market recently, and I have no clue how to prepare it. It is in the freezer right now, looks like it was skinned.
Is that how rabbits usually come?
What the heck should I do with it?
I raised some meat birds last year, and really enjoyed them . I didn't get around to raising any this year however, and now I am sorry.
Could I simply stick some meat chicks under my broody Jersey Giant hens? Is it too late in the year to try this?
My birds free range inside portable net...
I was looking through my ABA Standard yesterday, and came across the list of accepted colors. I had no idea that bantam Wy's came in lemon blue!
Is this an accepted color in the LF Wyandotte?
Does anyone know where to get lemon blues, or brown reds?
Does anyone have any pics?
(yes I tried...
My hubby and I will be spending 10 days in Amsterdam this fall for our honeymoon, and I can't go that long without chicken related activities. I heard that there is a chicken museum somewhere in Holland, but that was as far as I got.
Anyone else have any suggestions?
Any Dutch BYC'ers wanna...
Specifically Andalusian blue.
For example:
+\\+ = mahogany maybe? Or red like a RIR?
+\\- = red like a new hamp. / buff?
-/- = buff/ cream?
Does such a gene exist? Does this make sence to anyone else?
I just wanna say that I eat cherry preserves... With a fork. That's right, straight from the jar. And I'm not sorry.(you hear that mom? Not sorry).
Anyone else wanna get something off their chest?
My dear husband, who is the kindest, sweetest, most wonderful man around, has decided that we can import some birds this year.
I am looking for some detailed info about the process, and some suggestions from anyone who has actually done it before. I found the USDA website on importing, but it...
My dear husband, who I adore and love with all my heart, recently decided that we should import some birds. I know that it is terribly expensive, but what can I say...he's a great guy.
But now the big questions - what do I get and from where? Can anyone help me out? I need a link to UPDATED...
I recently bought 25 large fowl BLRW from a local breeder. They have been healthy and hardy so far (i think they are 6 wks old), and I am very pleased with them. However, I had 5 of the 25 end up with single combs. I understand that this happens on a regular basis with Whyandotts, but is 5 out...
I have started pullets for sale, 8$ each. They are about 9 wks old. These are all pullets except for the Leggern quad ( 3 brown, and 1 white pullet). Pick up, or I can meet you in Louisville, Frankfort, or Lexington if it's worth it.
Will try to post pics later.

I have a SL Whyandotte hen sitting on 12 eggs. I gave her that many because I am having fertility problems, and when I candle them in a few days, I'm sure that some will be duds. Today I went out to check on her, and found her face covered in yolk. Now the other eggs are covered in yolk too. She...
