So, did you get them? 🤗

That has got to be a lot of work! And some things have to be done with gloves off, and that’s no fun when it’s icy out. I’ve cut my numbers down to 111. I just can’t imagine running 2-3 times that over the winter!:bow

I’m really looking forward to your report when you start using it.

Your incubator has turned out amazing! Well, assuming it works as well as it looks like it will. I have a question about your turners. Are they easy to slide in and out on those wire racks? What is your plan for candling?

I didn’t know it. I did notice that some time back there was a rash of people changing their usernames, and I wondered why so many all at once. It seemed like it was a group of friends, but people who post a ton are often in all the threads anyway, so that might have been a coincidence.

I hope your birds fared well over the winter this year.

Just catching up. This was heart-wrenching. :hit

:gig I'm sorry- I can't help laughing!! When I started reading this sentence, I thought the number at the end was going to be much higher! :lau My advice: get as far out as you can. 15 years ago we bought 4 acres out of town, but suburbia followed us. :hmm I long to move to the middle of...

This is pretty standard USPS MO. They send you a tracking message that the birds will arrive by noon the next day, which is a lie, because it will always be two overnights. And tracking updates? Ha! The birds are not just sitting around. They are traveling, but no one bothers to check them in...

Oh, thank you for letting me know all this. I wonder if there are any good MFL anywhere. I bought a trio from a local breeder a few years ago, and they were just junk too. He said he had been working with them for 3 years, and he named a couple of sources he had gotten his stock from. (All...

@The Moonshiner , Do you have any photos of Mille Fleur Leghorns? I have some from Sandhill that are 7 weeks old. (7 cockerels and only 2 pullets, unfortunately.) I would like to see some photos of what I should be looking for when I choose my keepers.

Ok. I think I get the difference. The way I "thought" I understood incomplete dominance was that in heterozygous form, it causes a partial change, and in homozygous form it causes a complete change. (Or as complete of a change as is going to happen for that particular mutation.) I think I'm...

Could you explain the distinction between incomplete dominance and co-dominance please? I think I may have been using those terms incorrectly.

I would love to see Mille Fleur Plymouth Rocks!
