    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I have some Brabanters and I hang out on the FB pages but truthfully, there is a lot of drama over there. LOL I find it difficult to get people past their bragging about their own birds to provide much info on what to look for in hens and roos when culling out the less than desireables. Dont'...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I have not only ordered from this lady and hatched some very nice birds, but I have also spoken with her about what you said she says about their temperament. This is from her website and she stand behind her description and temperament. "Brabanters are a calm breed that is good for kids...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Oops! I thought maybe we had had this conversation before. LOL She has Dominiques and Cream Brabanters and I purchased both from her. Both of these breeds that I hatched out are very friendly especially if you work with them. My Brabanters, now 8 weeks old, are sweet, inquisitive, friendly...

    http://www.nantahala-farm.com/chickens-brabanter-cream-s.shtml You might try this lady for hatching eggs. I incubated her Dominiques (8 of 8) and Cream Brabanters (8 (maybe only 6?, seems like a long time ago LOL) of 10) and had a good hatch. She packs them very well so it is up to the post...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I got my Brabanter chicks from Ideal Poultry. I put myself on the waiting list for them around July 2014 sometime. They contacted me in Oct. 2014 and stated that if I still wanted them, I had to contact them with payment info. My chicks hatched March 9, 2015 and I got them on March 10th...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Sorry for your loss of money, time and effort. If you purchased the eggs from an Ebay ad and it went through PayPal, you can file a grievance/dispute with them and state your claim(s). I also purchased an assortment of 'Rare Breeds' hatching eggs and 8 of the 12 were non fertile with no...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Finally got pics of my Cream Brabanters. They are from hatchery stock and private breeder stock (the smaller one in the pic who is also 12 days younger). They are very sweet so far and pretty quiet. Inquisitive little bunch and not too skittish. Love 'em! The larger ones are 5 weeks old...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Yes, she was in Nantahala, NC but don't know why she would say that. My baby chick Brabanters, even now, are curious, come up and get on my hand, never peck me but are still a little skittish in the brooder as yet. When I pick them up, they quickly settle down and will sit in my lap. The...

    Is she (hopefully a she) considered a Splash as well? I just ordered hatching eggs with some of these included. Just curious as to descriptions. Soooo still new at identifying chickens.

    http://breedsavers.blogspot.com/2011/04/brabanters-reinventing-history.html This is one of the pages that shows some pics and a full description. I can't find the UK Standard Brabanter white pages at the moment. I will try to get the 3 week olds still enough for some pics. Most of them...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I purchased eggs from a lady in NC whose pics of her birds were wonderful. I hatched 8 of 10 Brabanters and 8 of 8 Dominiques from her. I can refer you to her if you are interested in hatching more. All of the eggs she sent me were very well packed and fertile. As they are right at 10 days...

    Adorable! Hope mine get that mohawk that big. Not able to see the beard very well in this pic. Is it coming along as well? Does it look like it will be fully bearded? Love love love these little birds!

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Umm....nope! LOL I hatched 6 on March 21 so they are just over a week old. BUT, I also have some in the brooder who are 3 weeks old and they are just adorable with their little 'hawks' going on but no, I can't tell them apart as yet. Of the 3 week old, I was supposed to have received 2...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Thanks so much for the info. I only discovered the name H & H from this site a couple of weeks ago. It has never been mentioned in any of the hatchery info most people seem to order from. Good to know they utilize due diligence in their breeding selections.

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I have read sporadically through this thread. I have ordered Cream Brabanters, 6 pullets and 2 roos, from Ideal Poultry. I have been to the H & H web site, but it only says 'sold out until 2014". Apparently H & H hasn't updated their site or ?? Anyway, I fell in love with the Brabanters just...
