    Columbian breed

    Does anyone know anything about a showgirl mutation called "Columbian"? The coloring is white with black and gray tail feathers and wing tips. Rather lovely, but I don't know anything about them. ????

    The Terrible Twos (two month old chicks)

    I'm an editor and my one suggestion is: don't forget to write a paragraph about the "hairy eyeball" you get from some chicks when they just stare at you to decide if you are worth the trouble. Otherwise - so good!!
