I second that.

Welcome back @Turk Raphael

Quote from @DesertChic .I thought it would turn out to be all black just like its down, but the feathers are growing out with a very interesting Sepia-toned pattern on them. And....the chick has cheeks! I guess that Ameraucana blood from Monty came through. Yep it sure shows thru. I've...

I am feeding a 22% protein Game bird layer to everyone. They are all doing well on it. I am paying $11.50 a 50 lb bag. In the hatching season I'm planning g on adding some animal protein cat food to their diet to see if that will help with the hatching. I probably need to start adding some...

This last rooster looks great. Now kneed to find one like him.

I believe that Hoover's Hatchery has the Golden Nuggets.

Mine has fallen off drastically. I've got most of the older hens molting right now, so that is kind if expected. I've got those 11 new laying pullets that started laying like crazy, suddenly they aren't laying anything. Cannot figure out why. I've checked the coop/run and cannot see...

Buy yourself a milk cow. I would if I had the time to milk it. The way my job has me going in and working I don't even have enough time to give to my chickens. There are some days I don't see them at all and others I get to run out and feed and water, then my son gathers the eggs if he...

I've had the EE, White Rocks, Cherry Eggers, Naked Necks. I also had a few Lakenvelders and Polish.

The crossbeak issues are in the "EE" breed period, not just Cackles. It is something that just pops up in them.

I've had nothing but terrible "luck" from Ideal. I've raised I couldn't count the number of baby chicks I've raised, and I've raised about 4 out of at least a hundred chicks from Ideal Poultry. I never recommend them. The best luck I've had with the hatcheries that are available now is from...

= 11.71 ounces for a gain of 670% since hatch. I'm leaning towards pullet. Pics won't copy: but just my HO, this one is a cockerel.

Sorry about Shiloh. I don't remember seeing a picture of him up this close. His color is almost New Hampshire (red). I really like that color of red over the Rhode Island Red (red).

That's just too much. Talking chickens with the wife. Mine wouldn't know which one I was talking about if I named it after her and posted a picture on the wall for her to see.

Oh I see. So you still have the girls. Yea, I know they are smallish. That is what I have a problem with in my flock already and they are adding more. I've been thinking about culling my rooster and hen out and trying to use the few offspring I have from them. I'm liking my Mottled...

I thought you still had these. What happened?
