No need to be afraid of the turkeys AB. I guarantee you will be biting them before they bit you.

Yep! And I have 24 turkey eggs in the incubator. 12 are due to hatch on Friday. You need to stop by sometime.

No, they are in Slatington, PA.

And here is the turkey project.

These are the ones we could not resist at Shooks Poultry yesterday.

McCaskill, these are from the Hinkjc line of Lavender Orpingtons. I have three pullets that I am definitely keeping. And I have three cockerels that I might part with.

I haven't been on in a while. I've been busy with hatching some Lavender Orpingntons and Spanish Black Turkeys. Got NPIP certified, expanding pastures...Whew! Just picked up 8 Gold Laced Wyandotte chicks at Shooks Poultry yesterday. Honestly, I only went there for feed, but the little ones...

Well, the Lavender is an Ameraucana, and the black one, we are not sure yet. We have two roosters, one Lavender Ameraucana and one RIR. The hens are assorted RIR, Black Sexlink and Black Jersey Giant. The black one has a white spot on its chest and belly with white wingtips. Looks like it is...

Finally got the pictures to post. Here are the two from my first successful hatch.

We finally got an incubator and now I have the hatching itch. We are looking for Orphingtons and Ameraucanas. Birds and eggs, it does not matter. Color preference is Lavender.

It was a raccoon. I tried to post a picture, but it never showed.

I finally got my chicken killer. He killed five of our hens, including both of our Lavender Ameraucanas. This one broke out of three humane traps, but could not escape a Marine and his rifle.

I get mine on EBay. I never have found any locally or at TSC.

abChicken, we have a trap you can use if you need another one. Stop by the house, I'll be home after 5.

Spring can't come soon enough for me. I love getting up, grabbing a cup of coffee and going outside to listen to the flock waking up. Eggs?! We've got eggs! Our chicks that we got back in September started laying back in January. We are now averaging a dozen a day. The eggs are too small for...

Yep! AB and I know each other. He got me started on BYC.

Finally got time to add myself to the BYC map. Now for some chicken math and subtract some roosters. Anybody buying? RIR and BR $10 each or trade.
