here are a couple more pics from the show...
I just realized that most of the pics i took were of bantams and not large fowl. hopefully someone else will be able to post more. i would like to second and third what was said before about what a great time it was at the Pensacola show...
And to go along with what Fred said and has been posted many times...it costs the same to feed a "heritage" bird as it does a hatchery....same amount of work to raise them too
buy some quality stock to begin with....if its not the breed for you, then sell them.
Thanks Walt! Will add him to my ever growing list of books to get! This is the kind of things i appreciate about this thread. Otherwise, the only things you can find at the big bookstores are the Storey's guide (which I personally wasn't a fan of...but bought the book because I didn't know...
Thanks! :)
Looks like I will be spending time looking at hen's hackles tomorrow to make more decisions on which ones to breed and which ones will just be layers for me.
Looking forward to the show next weekend in Florida....can't wait to see some outstanding birds!
