Hmmm.....my Brahmas are very friendly & talkative too.... they come RUNNING to my car when I get home & then the whole "herd" will follow me back to the coop for dinner. It's hilarious, LOL
Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :
Very nice indeed!
My light brahma has been teasing me... she sits on the nest for an hour, then gets off. I run out there (this morning it will be in the snow! ) no eggs. She goes back in for an hour, again, no eggs... I really want some of her eggs!!
Mine are weird...

Here they are--aren't they BEAUTIMUS?
So I put $2.75 on 6+ BLUE Muscovy eggs on eBay about a week ago & forgot about it. I went back yesterday to check & I WON THEM! I can't believe it!
So now I'm taking the Muscovies off my list....

How do you like them? Are they friendly/flighty? How do they handle cold weather? When did they start laying? Sorry for all of the questions, but I'm still considering several "Critical breeds" and I can't make up my mind...so it's nice to find someone who has one of those breeds on...
Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :
Not to enable or anything, but I saw this and thought of you... I'd get them myself, but hubby would probably flog me if I did...
I did save that seller as a favorite...

Yeah, my hubby doesn't understand......
In fact, he said no to the other pen/duck coop...but I think he'll reconsider if I can find the materials for free or very cheap....we already have four foundation block thingys, some plywood and all of the metal roofing we'll need.
So with any...
LOL A camera?
I LOVE my Brahmas...
I was selling them off because I wanted to get more into the critically rare breeds--but then I realized that I LOVE them, they are sort of rare, LOL Plus, they are excellent layers!
So now that I've decided to build another coop/shelter area, I can start...
Cool, thank you! Where did yours come from? I started off with 25 from McMurray & now I'm down to just one awesome rooster & one awesome hen. The others were sold or culled....and I miss them...but I also wanted to improve my stock & bring in some outside bloodlines.
Thanks! I'll check out...
Leah--
Thanks!
I would be very interested in getting a couple eggs from you...I did find a source which will sell me two of them for $22.10, shipped....can you beat that?
I'm in Washington State--otherwise, I'd take you up on the Sultan hen!
Thanks!
