Hi. I am currently looking for some eggs. Jumbo Coturnix brown. I thought I would throw this out there and see if I could find someone who is selling them.
Thanks!
My hen Beyonce' is a mama! She has been sitting on a clutch for a while now and is a new mama!
Sorry for the blurry pic. Maybe more chicks will appear!
Marie, glad to hear you got some to hatch. Shipping is what killed my success rate, I'm sure. The ones I picked up did very well, as opposed to the ones I had shipped, which only hatched 2 out of 12. Good luck with your new babies!
I thought the same thing Meg. I have 12 chickens right now and the plan for my pen will be 160 sq feet. Even that, I thought, was a bit small for me. But they will free range also.
I am very sorry to hear that mudhen. My brother had to put one of his down today. Not a good day. But it's for the best. Certainly don't kick yourself. Not your fault. You did good and your best. :aww
I have access to loads of shredded paper. Could this be used for bedding in the coop? Anyone see any harm in this? It would be paper only, no plastic from envelopes or anything like that.
Welcome Janet! I hate to say this, but given the names your husband has picked for your new chicks, I would say he has ...um....how should I put this....a different "appetite" for them than you do! Welcome to your best addiction!

hey Cyn, that pic of your 5 week old barred rock shows quite the comb. My six week old doesn't have half that. No waddles either. What the heck are you feeding them?
Heres a pic for comparison.
