I can't answer all of your questions but I suggest joining the Backyard Chickens Of East Idaho facebook group, there are a lot of people on there that could help you plus some good breeders.

I am also in that area, welcome neighbor!

When will you be going through your orps? Would you have any cockerels available? (I'm looking for a black one and both of my blacks look like pullets ) If I could figure out a chicken train as I can't go down there...

That is true, I'm not sure most people would agree though. I've decided against hatching eggs for now unless someone offers something really good and I lose all self control, a feed store nearby will have some chicks that I want this last go round. So that is the chicken budget I would see if...

Okay.

Those are so temping... I wonder if them being smaller, silkied or possibly frizzled would get me past my mom. She is afraid of naked necks but she does want a frizzle Showgirls and Silkies... I'm gonna have to think about that. Would the eggs fit in a egg turner? I'm looking for...

Does anyone in the IF area have pure bred/hybrid(OE, SBEL, etc) hatching eggs, and what breeds? I'm about to clean out the incubator and am considering doing another hatch before I put it away for the year.

If you are getting them for laying you wouldn't have to kill them. They are just dual purpose. The question is, what are you looking for in a hen? If you need some advice on breeds to get it's helpful to outline what you are looking for.

Dang chicken math, I went in to Cal Ranch to get a bag of feed for my 5 three month old existing chickens and I came out with 3 chicks, and my brother got 2. I better go set up the mini brooder... I'll need to keep most of my money off of me when I go there for the next few months.

I found someone who had some with single combs and they sent me a picture of a blue egg. So I was curious. I think I'll just wait and see if I can get some at the chicken stock. These ones don't look as nice as others I've seen. Plus I may or, may not favor pea combs on some breeds...

Can anyone tell me if they have had SBEL's with non-pea combs?

Wow, that is amazing.

Okay, thank you!

Just a question. Has anyone gotten chicks from Dunlap? And have pictures(Bantam Cochins, and silkies)?

Wow. Everyday I learn something new ( And it is normally about birds ) But that is a lot of feathers!(at least in my mind)

@Birdrain92 Your Peas are beautiful!

Thankfully there are no waterfowl around here I have to drive a little ways to see any. My flock should be safe

Wow, they are beautiful! Especially Matilda. Is a Shizzle a Showgirl x Frizzle? I've seen people say that but I didn't know what it was.
