Last ones in Brooder 4 - 8weeks
8 Blue Jersey Giants (coloring is blue black & splash!)
I am breeding out tan color some have had!
I would say a 1/4 of hatches had this!
No Shipping
Bring carrier/box to pick up!
My opinion
I n this order Jersey Giants, Plymouth Rocks, Brahma.
A lot has to do with letting the meat rest after processing then soaking in salt water for 48 hours. (some use buttermilk) The way you cook it is important too! I have to say the way to go is a slow cooker!!

I have and had both!
Both are very tame (I did have a hatchery Cochin Roo be mean but, breeder stock is better) You will get more eggs from the LF Brahma than the LF Cochin! not much difference in the Bantams laying!

All the reasons stated I love my Brahmas!!!
my Brahmas age 2+ average 5 eggs a week!
When I talk to them I swear they answer me!
They might not want to be caught but, they don't really run from me!
no pictures on this computer!

Brahmas & Jersey Giants are pretty laid back!
If you coop has no windows or light coming in he won't crow till you open the doors!
they crow when something happens like the sun coming up (it is getting lighter)
Hands down Brahmas!
They are quiet, gentle, easily handled, kid friendly & they don,t mind having another Roo around!
Many other Great Breeds but,
A lot depends on the strain of other breed!

I have always been attracted to this breed! (especially for personality & Pea comb) but, I have read on Internet & in a book that the Buckeye has more dark meat than white!
This has been a factor for us! So, is that statement true?
Joanne
Yes, Dog houses can be modified to become a coop!
Do a search in the coop section using words dog houses!
I suggest getting 3 of each breed so you wind up with the 3 girls you are looking for!
