I got 9 Barbs and 2 Bresse in a mixed box from Gold Feather Farms and I love them, growing fast, large and beautiful. I LOST MY bresse cockeral to an overzealous neighbor dog, but have have everyone else still. I think I have 8cockerals and 1 pulled in my Barbs, I guess we will be finding out...
My chicks hatched and I am still waiting for most of them to dry. I had 14 out of 20 that were fertile. Of those 14,11 hatched. Of those 11, 1 hatched funny and had an upside down neck, it was the 2nd to hatch and I assumer it's neck kind of solidifed in that direction. It tried to drown...

My friends that ordered the chicks with me got a bunch of different colors and ended up with the most beautiful black,red and green roo. I am building a coop for her roo and will put my blue/green egg layers in with him to expand my colored egg layers. I think i will add my marans too for...
