It can get pretty cold here in Kansas. I used to have a small flock of Barnies, and one particularly cold winter, they did get some frostbite on their combs.My roo's points were a little shorter and more rounded after that, but he was fine otherwise.

Oh, man, those BLUES!!!!!

tls-ranch, I had sent you a pm asking about eggs, but my inbox may have been full. Are you selling, and will you have any in a couple of weeks?

Congrats Pinkchick and Stephanie!!!

Pink, I was convinced my Barnies would N E V E R lay. Took forever! I bet when Stephanie finally give you an egg, it will be worth the wait (easy for me to say!)

Pretty Barnies! What is their egg color like?

Thanks for posting photos, relics-it's nice to see photos of good Barnies to help educate myself.

Quote: This is what happened to me. I was given some Barnies from a friend, who was told they were supposedly from 'exhibition' lines. Came to find out they are mixed with Welsummer. I'd already sold eggs to a few people before finding out the truth, so am now trying to do damage control...

()relics : Ok so I am posting this here so real Barnevelder people can see it and have first chance at them . I have a standard Barnevelder cockerel, hatched February of this year. He is from my stock, not crossed with anything but barnevelders, I just hatched too many roosters this spring...

I'm no expert,but think they look beautiful Do you have a pic of your eggs?

I was given 4 pullets and a rooster last fall from a friend. He bought the eggs from a breeder (he can't remember the name now) who had show quality birds. Well, being new to the breed, it took me a while to start to wonder why two of my pullets are lighter than the other two, and don't have...

Penny is lovely! I'm not expert,but her lacing looks pretty nice to me? I'll have to get photos of my girls and roo once they can get out again. The refuse to walk in the snow, so both coops are MESSY--ugh! Glad I cleaned before the storm.

A friend gifted me with 5 chicks from SQ stock back in October. They are now 3 months old, so should start laying in the spring. He told me the eggs are not that dark since the birds have been bred more for color and form, but I will post pics when they start laying, if anyone is interested.
