Yah, Terry's a good dude. I've ordered eggs from him but they didn't hatch (post office issues), but we are gonna order some chicks from him in the spring to add a new bloodline to our WFBS. Because he's a breeder and not a hatchery, I imagine his birds are a little more docile than these very...

Wow, Josh! Very striking birds. That roo looks like he means business! Hehehehe.

I am very pleased with the quality of my birds in spite of them being hatchery stock. They're developing well & they're only 6 months old. At least two of the hens are laying now, and two more were "visiting" them today in the nesting boxes and sang the egg song with them when they were done...

Hubby got a couple of semi-decent pics of our flock with his camera over the last few days. Wanted to share them. I like to call this picture, "May I help you with something??" Here's a group that hangs out together. The guy with the orange band on his leg is Big Daddy Fernando. He's...

Well, today is a day I've waited a long time for! The first one of my white faced black Spanish pullets that I got back in June reached point of lay today & we got our first WFBS egg ever! I saw the little pullet come out of the henhouse singing egg song, but all of the WFBS pullets have been...

My babies are getting so big! They are 5 months old but look nearly fully grown (at least the roosters). They've developed gorgeous white faces. Out of 4 roosters, 2 are sweet & 2 are little meanies that are headed to freezer camp. My hubby is outside getting pictures now, as his camera...

Well ya know, Terry, ya have to remember these are hatchery stock. Very pretty, good type... bad temperament, though. How much would you charge me for a dozen chicks, shipping and all? The post office seems to jumble up my eggs but they are good to chicks I order... go figure.

Okay, I have a crappy camera phone, but this is one of my gorgeous WFBS cockerels. He is almost 4 months old. This is not one of the ones I'm keeping, although he is less aggressive than the other 3 boys (I have a total of 4 males and 11 females). He's actually kinda sweet. The only reason I...

They are flighty and aggressive birds, which is why we are discontinuing all our other breeding programs and focusing on these. I love the banties and hear they can be mean as spit, especially the males. Mine are large fowl, though. I have never met a bantam rooster that wasn't mean and...

We had zero hatch. I think the eggs were just too jumbled up by the post office. We were really bummed, and now I can't get Jim Bell to answer my e-mails and ship me some chicks. We are doing really well with our WFBS chicks from Ideal, though. They are getting BIG. At almost 4 months of...

Lemme know when you have the sun catchers available and how much they'll be. Awesome, awesome artwork! We are down to 3 white faced blue Spanish eggs. Everything else was a bust. We are scheduled to start hatching next Friday. With my stupid luck, they'll all be cockerels.

It's not just eggs. A friend of mine sent me a beautiful ceramic figurine a couple of years ago, and it was marked "Fragile, handle with care" all over the box. The PO literally dropped it on my doorstep (they didn't know my son was home at the time and watching them from the window... they...

Quote: Hi Terry, That's why I've gone out of my way to make sure and mention that I believe the problem is occurring with the PO at this end and not at your end, as I may have mistakenly thought at the beginning. The post office is a pain in the neck when it comes to egg shipping. It's...

Wow, Terry, he's GORGEOUS!! I bet he throws off some beautiful chicks! Maybe I'll order a couple of chicks from you in the spring, since I've had better luck this year with shipped chicks than I have with shipped eggs. I got some eggs from Jim Bell last week, and the box looked like the...

Ok, we have had some mishaps with the white faced blue Spanish eggs due to what appears to be an issue with the post office using the box for goal-kicking practice. Another egg that had a slight crack in it exploded in the bator tonight. We got it fairly early, so I think we were able to save...

Quote: Very, very nice! My standards (including Sawblade) also came from Ideal. I've been pleased with the birds from there. I'm keeping the best of that group and have probably 3-4 WFBS male/female juvenile pairs for sale right now (in case any of y'all are in my area and interested… I...

Standard. Because this bird is on the Endangered Species list, I wanted to raise and breed the standard-sized fowl to try to help preserve them. The bantams are also gorgeous, though. I've seen some really nice ones.

Yah, he got the name Sawblade because of his comb. By the time he was 2-3 weeks old, he had a HUGE comb that looked like a little round sawblade sticking up out of his head. He thinks he runs the show. LOL.

Okay, here's Sawblade... he's my "lead cockerel" that we got from Ideal in June. He will be 10 weeks old on Monday. You can see he is starting to get white face a little bit around his eyes and has a beautiful, large white earlobe. He started crowing about a week ago & sounds like a little...

Quote: Hope they hatch for you! I might begetting some eggs from Lund Poultry in November to replace my flock that I had lost to a disease. BTW, Happy Birthday! I have bought eggs from him twice. None of them hatched, but that's a gamble you take with shipped eggs. He's a good guy...
