Quote: We picked up some nice partridge from Rudy.

Quote: what breeder did you get the splash from?

Quote: Guess I haven't been on here in a while. It was really nice to meet you...... glad you made it home safe and hope to see you at a show this fall.

Quote: ok... I liked what I saw for your website thus far. I'm working on building one myself and it can get kind of overwhelming for me...so I work in bits and pieces...it makes my life much easier. I hope to get it up and running sooner than later tho. I finally came up with a name...so that...

Quote: Hey! Great seeing you guys last weekend! I had the windows open driving through Etown. The guy behind me had his windshield wipers on trying to brush the chicken feathers off of his car. spoken by a true chicken gal.... I told you to put those chickens in cages

Went to lock up the animals a minute ago and found a runner with his head stuck in the wire. it looked like his head and neck went over and under the wire like a basket weave. some 2011 Wyandottes in the grow out pen and the runners in the back... they get along great!

Quote: it is almost 9:00 here and there is school tomorrow. The kids don't get a nap during the day so they have all crashed, even the baby. He had a birthday last week. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/21841_blake1stbd_024.jpg Boy he's really grown! No rooster birthday...

Quote: Beautiful! That pattern/coloring is amazing! thanks... and he has big beautiful blue eyes..... wait, I think you were talking about the chicken. Guess I need to head back to the baby thread.

Quote: thanks Katy.... I am bored tonight. Jerry and Nathan (13 year old) went to the KY basketball game tonight. This is Nathan's first live KY game.... picture from their seats. Guess I could find more pictures of Wyandottes instead. KY and basketball.... Is there anything else...

Here is a Wyandotte variety that needs to make a comeback..... they are stunning. It is so hard to pick a favorite and I wish we could raise all the varities, but we wouldn't be able to keep up with the standard and we would be spread too thin. Maybe when the other kids get old enough to help...

Craig'sHens : Quote: I'm also pretty sure this is a cockerel. It also has the beginnings of wattles that you can't see in the photo. But all 18 chicks have very few feathers. Some are a bit more feathered and some a but less. About 1/3 of them have no feathers at all on their shoulders...

yup.... those bantam roosters are bad boys. They even run after the adult hens that are 3 times their size. Reminds me of a call drake that would get out and chase down the rouen ducks. We had one bantam rooster get into a show conditioning pen with a large fowl white wyandotte about 3 years...

Craig'sHens : I actually have 1 more question. I read somewhere that you separate the roosters as soon as you can tell the sex. I think I'll be able to draw that line pretty soon based on size combs and wattles. What age do they need to be separated? ours all run together by age...

Quote: Ours are divided by age and they move from pen to pen until they end up in the large growout pen. We cull as we go so space is not too much of an issue. After chick starter we feed a mix of 18% pellets, oats, meat bird, sunflower seed, and a handful of cat food with fish meal. Of...

Craig'sHens : We have 18 SLW chicks from the Turbos that they helped me with very late in their hatching season. I couldn't be happier with them. They survived a glitch by the USPS but arrived healthy the next day with only 1 loss. They have been nearly doubling in weight every week and are...

Quote: The white bantams are quite readily available lay as most wyandottes do fairly regular and frequent, great temperment. You should be able to locate some at virtually every poultry show, advertised in teh poultry press and many other locations. they are likely the most common Bantam...

Quote: Cool, but what are you going to do with one chick? We are shipping out everythign that hatchs this week and I forgot about the 2 SP bantam eggs..... they are too little to put in the box with the large fowl. I hate to turn on the brooder for 2 chicks Maybe my silkie hen is still...

Quote: I take paypal...LOL I put that egg under my permanently broody sl bantam. I'll be darned if it didn't hatch yesterday! Cool, but what are you going to do with one chick? We are shipping out everythign that hatchs this week and I forgot about the 2 SP bantam eggs..... they are too...

Quote: We love Colby and not just because she is a good customer Mrs. Turbo, I notice your BLR are looking so much better this year, on behalf of everyone involved with the variety I would like to extend a very special thank you to you and your husband for all the hard work and dedication...
