They still have Buckeyes.

I agree. You just don't see good ones often.

99 percent of the people calling themselves breeders are not breeders in any sense of the word. Walt

He Is Probably not servicing all 32. Even when there is a lot less females, males tend to have favorites. Walt

Anyone who says that it is easy hasn't been doing it long. Generally when you think that,You have not done this for 5 years or more. Many newer breeders breed themselves into a corner around the 5 year mark and that is when they find out how hard this is. No one I know thinks breeding to a...

For some reason roosts get blamed a lot for bad breeding. Chicks in brooders will try to roost on a water bottle or whatever.........they know better than me, so I let them do it. The diameter of the roost and all the other negative things you read these days about roosts just make me laugh...

That's a little scary...........hahahaha Walt

Yes, but look at feathers that are buried to see the real color. Sun can discolor any colored feathers, but some Buckeye's are light. Walt

That sounds like a good idea.

Chris Mccary has good ones as well. He had reserve American with a male at the APA National at Knoxville this year. Walt

Don Schrider won both Best of Breed with a cockerel and Reserve of Breed with a pullet in the Open Large Fowl Buckeye.....about 70 birds. Sharon Fildes won Best of Breed in Bantam Buckeyes with a cockerel. Tanya Miller won Reserve of Breed with a cockerel -- 60 Bantams in the class of Bantam...

The winners are posted on one of the Buckeye Clubs Facebook sites. Walt

Congratulations to the Buckeye winners at the Ohio National. Judge Jeff Halbach did an excellent job picking the winners. Jeff and his dad raised many Buckeyes during the time they operated Halbach Poultry Farm in Waterford Wisconsin. Congratulations to the winners in the bantam class too. I'm...

Good! Butch knows large fowl. If you bring some to Knoxville I'd love to see them. Walt

I always enjoy shows.. Not good for me in the exhibition part. Res Waterfowl with a Call duck. Got beat by a kid with an outstanding Rouen young duck......ahahahaha. I didn't have any chickens ready to show yet....won't for a couple more shows. My grapes were a month early, the leaves fell a...

First Intersate Vet has talked about this many times. I don't know why folks don't go to reliable sites that are specific to the problem to find the proper info. I am a poultry health inspector for the State of CA and no one on this thread believes anything I say.....hahahah They would rather...

There is no bird in the US that has not been exposed to Mareks...and that happens well before any show or swap meet. Again it is everywhere. Coryza is not everywhere and is usually the sign of poor management. Yes, the symptoms can be masked, but it will still infect. Since you can't do...

Coryza is a big deal. It is highly contagious. Walt

Oh I know I'm old Joe and will be another year older in 20 days..... But I'm not so old that I don't remember that you and your group were having problems with Coryza during the summer. Now that is a problem. If a person has Coryza they should not bring a bird off the place until it is...

Rather than put it the way you did, why don't you ask about the specific problem ....Mareks. It is a lot different! Your birds have been exposed to Mareks as have Joe's and everyone reading this. It does not matter if you are at a show or in your backyard with a closed flock that never goes...
