    Wonderful, I will be living close to Stockton and would also just love 2 pullets blue or black. I also have 2 hatchery birds and would love the larger ones. I will come too.

    Sell them after they have their chicks or sell their chicks? We are going to be moving within the next 2 months so I am going to wait and buy chicks from someone here on BYC next spring!! These are my favorite birds. We have to make sure there is a good fence where we are moving, or make them a...

    Oh how I wish!! No I have never come that way. I will visit my grandkids in Texas. I have missed many a quality JG from BYC because of my location. I am more sorry than you may know.

    They are very nice. How I wish I lived in the Midwest. Not many JG breeders in CA but lots in the East. I would love to have them. How sorry I am. I hope you find them a nice home.

    Thank you very much. I have been feeling pretty bad, not wanting to show my birds or talk about them, including my Jersey Giants because they are Hatchery. You have made me feel better. One of my Jersey's is getting very big around while the other is smaller. I started fermenting their feed...

    Well, I think they are very pretty! I have two hatchery JG's also and wanted better quality also but I may pass for a different breed.

    Yes, that is the websight I have been looking at! Yes, expensive. But she does not sell just 4 or 5. I would need to buy sexed pullets. It is sad to kill the boys. Yes, you are a little too far from me. I may have to wait. We are going to be moving and we need to find a place where chickens are...

    Thank you very much! That sounds really nice. I was being a little sarcastic about my comment. I want good, heavy Jersey Giants for pets and eggs. They don't need to be "show" birds or birds that people raise to be perfect. Sorry.

    I am that way also, in a hurry and know they will be smaller due to them being hatchery birds. I am so impatient for next year. I want 4 Jerseys from a good breeder in hopes of a 9-10# girl. Some breeders do not sell in small numbers though. I want pets, I don't need them papered.

    I bought my Red Sex Link from our feed store, at the reguest of my grand daughter. I have 22 chickens, she is the youngest, and getting anything is difficult with 21 ahead of her! She is chased and pecked if she comes near any scrap. I put the scraps in her pen when she is in. One of these days...

    I have one Red Sex Link but she is so shy, not letting us get near to her. Maybe more would help. The issue I have with my BA's and JG's is that they are hatchery birds and small. I want some "true" breeds. I may reconsider. You have been a great help. I will check out those others.

    Oh Thank you for the information. I wrote that incorrectly. I should have said the breeder that is known for the largest JG. I purchased mine from a feed store and someone told me that they would not be a true Jersey size, but smaller. I looked online and several breeders sell Jerseys. I would...

    Hello, this may be a second post, but I can not find my original. I am in Placerville, CA. and I am interested in 2 pure bred Jersey Giants. Can anyone please tell me which online place to order from for the best and largest JG breeder? Thank you in advance. Judy

    Thank you for this information. I have a rather mean 3 yr. old leghorn I was going to put on the table, but it is too hard to do her in after 3 years. Now, knowing she would be a tough bird to eat, I will just let her live out her days and the others will have to stay out of her way.
