    Were they straight run or pullets? Got any pics? They sound interesting in your "grown up" description. I read up about the Buckeyes. According to Wiki they are Barred Rock/ Buff Cochin , and red game cross. Look just like NanaKat described. Maybe they'll still turn out...

    We've got some of those, too. My wife and I have been talking about how this is just about the most beautiful spring we can ever remember. (at least up till now) The weather has been unusually calm, and temperate, and its been a stupendous year for wildflowers. Only one I haven't seen a lot of...

    That Splash roo is nice. What do the hens, and their eggs look like? My hatching eggs are turning dud, I'm afraid. I've had the worst luck the last few times. (edit) I looked those up, and see that the hens are a white speckled variety. Nice eggs, too. I've had a ban time with anything white...

    I have found the Marans very addictive. Not all the eggs turn out to be the chocolate brown color you see in pictures so often, but all are a very deep brown. Just something neat about them.

    I like Cackle, too. Drove by there once on I-44 in Lebanon MO, and wished I could stop. Very nice, responsive staff. The unusual thing about them is that you can actually get some harder to find breeds in a timely manner. The wait times at McMurray are pretty long. I know some swear by...

    I actually bought a few packs of electrolyte stuff today at Tractor Supply because I had to buy syringes. I'm going to mix up some of this. NanaCat in Meeker- Do you sell chicks or hens? I had to cull my Welsummer chicks today due to illness. I've sanitized everything, and want to wait about a...

    We've also just called those wild onions. I'd say right now is about as good/big as they are going to get. I haven't dug any in years, but seem to remember they are a little on the strong side. How do they taste?

    On the question of the Blue Marans chicks: I've hatched 3 broods of Black Copper Marans, and those sure look "Maran-ish" to me. These marans chicks impress me with their calm demeanor. Look at the chicks in this link: http://www.chickenscratchpoultry.com/french_blue_copper_marans
