Ours started laying recently and I’m very impressed so far! She’s very consistent and her eggs have always been very large. Beautiful for sure, but I’d still like to add some colour bred ones as well
I love the look of BCMs over partridge colours, but also want a pretty basket 🤔 Someone is laying lightly speckled eggs and I’m not sure who it is! Totally understand the shipper chick ambivalence, my husband can’t handle it at all
I went back for another BCM to replace a chick that passed overnight (shipped, not one of my LO), but they sold out by the time I’d dropped off a kid at a party. So that just means I’ll need a Welsummer next week with my Barnevelders 🤷🏽♀️
I’ve got a 4 month old BCM, can’t wait for her to lay! We’ll be at the feed store and might need to replace a sick chick. Which would you pick? We love friendly chickens, nothing too submissive since the Wyandottes are bitches lol
Other option is seeing if they’ll let us wait til next week for...
