We hatched too many cockerels from our rare breeds this last hatching season. I want to find them good homes, as they are all good beautiful birds. They are just over-breeding the hens! LOL If you would like more information, please contact me. These guys would make great additions to any flock...
Hey Everyone... so I got a couple dorkings from Sandhill stock last season. I ended up with 1 birchen rose comb male and 1 black single comb female. What are the percentages for comb type and color that I might get? I'm new to this whole genetics thing! Thanks for any advice you could give! :)

Anyone know where I can find quality breeders of these two types of birds? I'm looking for better quality birds rather than just hatchery style. Anyone got any suggestions? Thanks! ~DanverGuy
