    Chickens for 10-20 years or more? Pull up a rockin' chair and lay some wisdom on us!

    "p.p.s. aschenfire, i enjoyed and understood the chocobo reference ;)" Hehehehe I knew someone had to get that. For those of you who are not only chicken keepers, but also gamer nerds, Chocobos are big, ostrich-like (but cuter) birds which are featured in Final Fantasy video games. You race...

    "They look good! Short bodies, long legs and necks and most importantly the wings do not go past the stern (butt). The tails don't stick up which is a common fault in these. They look like they are going to come out nice. As of just a short time ago the splash color is now recognized by the APA...

    I am just skimming posts but I tend to be a bit offended by anyone stating that hatchery birds are "mutts".
