    Am I a Narri?

    I bought a mixed batch of poults from Stromberg's back in September. I noted that the packaging had said it was a three breed variety. Two of the breeds were easy, royal palms and bourbon reds. The last I thought were bronze, but now think they are Narragansetts, maybe all females, since the...

    Black Rock?

    My father in law decided to downgrade the size of his flock and gave my family most of them. They're a mix of barred rocks and what I was told were black rock hens. The roo is also the black rock. Are the black rocks the same as black sex links? What is the tell-tale sign to sex them at...

    My incubation temperature dilemma

    Hello to all. I'm a newbie here. Earlier this summer my father-in-law gave me most of his flock. One rooster, 21 hens (ten barred rocks and 11 he called black rocks) and 5 little ones. My family and friends are enjoying the fresh eggs, and the children love to go see them as much as...
