Hello to you all again! I was away for a while and I am back again! Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Theron and we raise a variety of poultry here in mid-Michigan. We had a large cutback and now raise just Sebastopol geese and a few different breeds of bantam chickens. Had many large life...

I would say 3 males.

Going to be taking a break from BYC for a while. It will be just a temporary break and I will be back. Just in need of more time for work, school, reading books, and enjoying the outdoors. Hope you all have a great finish to summer!

Try RIRJen or RBahmer. Both have some really nice silkies.

Can't wait to hang with some of my BYC homies tomorrow. Really missed them since I couldn't make it to chickenstock.

We have been getting rain here almost constantly the past 3 days. Hopefully it ends soon. Birds are all looking like wet rats because they would rather stand in the rain instead of going into a nice dry and clean coop.

Strange. Congratulations on your wins though. Hopefully, most colors will become accepted so there isn't as much confusion.

I love the golden laced pullet! I can get you a pic of her mother. I know exactly who it is. You all had me paranoid, so I ran around and looked at all of the legs of my birds. None were pale/pinkish colored. About chickenstock. I went to bed too late the night before and woke up too late. By...

Ok. Guess I have heard differently. I know other colors have been submitted, but I didn't think you could win at an ABA show. I know that at our local show this spring, the colored seramas weren't judged in cage. Only the whites. Guess there is quite a bit misinformation out there. Thanks for...

Weird thing is they came from me.... I don't have any with white/pink legs. I have birds with black, willow, green, yellow, and some with black and yellow. None here with white/pink legs. Scifisarah, could you post some pictures of them?

The only color that is accepted for in cage judging is white. Those have to have yellow legs and red earlobes. Anything passes for the table top judging.

If I would've been in your situation and saw the dog killing my birds, the dog would be no more. Just my opinion.

I agree with you on all of this except the food part. I try to bring food as in fruit or veggies, but if I bring their regular feed, they make a huge mess of it and a lot gets wasted. Plus, it is only a few hours. If I was going somewhere for a few days, I would definitely bring their feed.

We are going to go with nigerian dwarfs. Cheaper, found some very local to us, and are small and don't eat as much (which means we can have more than larger breeds ). We can also milk them and make some cheese and butter.

Chickenstock is a day away! Can't wait to see all of you! I will be bringing my fancy camera and taking some pictures. I will be bringing BUNDLES of muscovy ducklings (probably 15 of them; about a week old), a few call ducklings, variety of seramas, a few lay flock chicks, a modern game hen, a...

I will have TONS of week old muscovy ducklings. One duck hatched out 11 and the other hatched out 8 so far.

We don't want to have that many goats. lol We were thinking maybe nubians. That was actually our first breed of choice for goats. haha

First time in a while that I am up before Opa's morning coffee post. Lots of things to do today to prepare moving the birds off our place and to their temporary homes. Our laying flock is already moved, but we still have our seramas, bantam cochins, and polish, along with the ducks and geese to...

We have 10 acres that has a lot of shrubbery and weeds. Not a ton of good grass. We were thinking either cattle or goats. What livestock would work for us?

The rabbits are not an issue at all. We can still have them here.
