    Blu, The NHR are more of a glowing orange where the Light strain are more of a peachy blonde, but I get your drift. I'm so curious to see how these birds turn out! :D Aina, Those are beautiful! I can't wait til my biddies look like that!

    Well, It can't be any worse than the surprisingly feather legged "Pure German Strain NHR". Half of these have feathered shanks. Auto cull pile. Payed a lot for these too.

    Buckeyes hatching all over the place! I have 4 out from Mr. Lay and 2 out from another line. The Lay biddies seem so much darker than the other line, I don't think I'll be needing to band them to be telling the difference. Which is better, darker or lighter chicks? Will post pictures when I can...

    Hello Everyone, I have 24 buckeyes in the incubator (half directly from Mr. Lay), and I'm overwhelmed with interest in this breed. Me and a few other members of my 4H club have rounded up enough interest to launch our own project, and I'm currently helping everyone get settled...
