Looking (desperately) for bantam salmon Faverolles hatching eggs. Only need a few since my incubator only fits 7 eggs. I've reached out to LOTS of breeders with absolutely NO response whatsoever. Please help! Thanks.
I have a GORGEOUS "Favington" bantam cockerel that I need to sell. His mother is a salmon Faverolles bantam and the father is a black Orpington bantam. This, I'm told, is the ideal "first step" in crossing breeds to put hybrid vigor back into the Faverolles. I think you'd breed him to a...
This morning, my daughter found our EE bantam hen in a secret nesting spot. She didn't come home last night and I had a feeling that she was pulling this stunt (again). We discovered she was sitting on TEN eggs! Any chicks that hatch would be fathered by a black Orpington bantam rooster.
Would...
I apologize BIG if this is like the umpteenth time you're seeing a post on this matter (I've posted this at two other sites). If you have already responded on one of the other sites, don't worry about posting here. I'm keeping track of ALL replies.
I hatched and raised what I was POSITIVE to...
I have a pair of black Orpington bantams that hatched just a month ago. You can pick them up from my home in Hercules or I can deliver them to the Stockton show next month.
Here's the pullet (taken just a few days ago):
If you'd like to see the cockerel (and you're *truly* interested in...
I have black Orpington bantams, but two of my 10-week-olds are still sporting a bit of white on the tips of some of their feathers. How big of a fault (show-wise) is this, and should I stop hatching from the pair that these chicks came from?
The following photos were taken maybe 3-4 weeks ago...
I've got a seven-week old black Orpington bantam cockerel that I want to get rid of. He does this annoying thing where if I put my hand in his cage, he gets his hackles up and attacks my arm - bites my fingers or whatever. Of course no damage is done because he's still small, but I don't want...
I have a black Orpington bantam rooster (hatched January 28, 2008) for sale. Sorry, no hens to go with him.
I'm told that his parent stock has done well at shows.
I also have two of his 5-week-old offspring (cockerels) for sale. They're very tame and not yet crowing.
Please reply here or...
I was expecting peeps to hatch on Tuesday, but one of the two eggs was already pipped Sunday night. Monday morning, I woke up to the sound of appliances suddenly turning on. Looked at the clock, which was flashing 12:00. C*@P!!! There was a blackout! My first thought was whether the kids were...
Hey, All!
I'm specifically looking for bantam salmon Faverolles hatching eggs from pure Rose Marie Isgrigg stock. My bantam EE hen just went broody so I'm hoping to get eggs ASAP. I'd be SO grateful!!! Even if you can only send like 6 eggs, I'll take them. Oh, and it's also okay if the oldest...
I've got some bantam boys that I'd like to re-home.
First, are some 7-week-old [accidental] chicks that are 1/2 Easter-egger and 1/2 RIR. They hatched around 8/13 or 8/14. There are five cockerels; the two pullets I'll let go provided the cockerels are going with them:
If there is no interest...
