I had to post my Duh moment concerning my "Salmon" Faverolle hens. I thought I had done something wrong when I bred my last batch. All the hens turned out a darker red color. I felt this way for over a year and didn't breed the hens because I didn't want to pass on this gene. Come to find out...
I have 2 Cocks and 4 Hens for sale already laying and breeding. I have to many Chickens. I'll take $40 for them all.
It looks like I dubbed them but it was a cold snap that got their combs.

I have some Sam-Fav, Blk Sex link cross hens for sale. They are all black with beards and muffs. I'll take $5 each for them. I think I have about 8. Some are already laying. I need room so they have to go.
I have two 16 week 1/2 Kiko - 1/2 Dairy bucklings for sale. I would like $50.00 each or both for $90.00. I live in the Lebanon Tennessee area.
These are newborn pictures, I'll try to get current pictured today.
I did crop surgery on my Bantam Faverolle about a week ago. It was easy and she came through it just fine. I put her on injectable Penn for 1 day before the surgery and 2 days after to prevent any infection. 2 days after she was off the Penn she developed a sinus infection. I took the wood...
A friend was cutting hay and chased a Turkey off her nest. He was afraid she wouldn't come back or he would run over them when he bailed. Well, guess who has 9 Turkey eggs in her incubator. I don't know how far along they are. I can see them moving around alot. I thought I would just leave them...
OK, so I thought I was done incubating. I have had it going since December and just shut it off. I would be willing to start it up again if I could find some Bantam Sam Fav eggs. I wouldn't need them until May. Any out there?
I have finally turned the bator and hatcher off. They have been running since December! I have hatched some really pretty Silkies and Silkie Cochin Bantam crosses. I'll post some pictures soon.
I have chicks hatching that are Samon Faverolle Blk. Australorp cross. Some are hatching with a lack of feathers. As they get older their backs are bare but they have wing feathers. Any clue?
They are about six weeks now. They are Barred Rock crosses. Some are crossed with a Buttercup some with a SalFav some with Blk Sex links and some with a Barred Rock. Will be good layers and good Roo's. All are Barred. $4 for P's and $2 for C's. PM me and let me know...Gloria
Anyone interested in getting together in Middle Tennessee? We are kind of in the center of a bunch of states. Maybe we could do an overnighter at a camp ground or something when the weather breaks. Just let me know and we can start making plans.
I have a Genisis 1588 that I use to incubate. I love it! I then hatch in my Hova Bator. I even bought a new wafer for it a few days back. I put my eggs in yesterday after having steady temps for 2 days. I woke up to temps of 104 this morning. I'll get it cooled down and candle tonight to see...
My DH found a great dog that someone had dropped off down the road from us. We had been seeing him for over a week now at an empty house down the road from us. DH finally brought him home to feed him. Why is it us country folk always seem to have to take on others pet responsibilities. He is...
Guess what I found in the front pasture tonight. (pictures to follow) She must have been preggers when I got her. I just noticed she had a full bag today and mentioned it to DH. She hasn't been here long enought for it to be one of my boys. It's a girl.
I would like to plant something to grow up on over my coop and run. I thought it would be a barrier between preditors and that way my dogs couldn't see the chickens from the side. I figure out of sight out of mind. Plus shade and wind protection. I thought of Ivy or Bittersweet. I want something...
