Great :) Im only a PM away, just let me know when ready for them. I was hoping to get some good photos before the weather turned nasty...so much for that.

Wow those are really nice birds, they must have a huge setup for keeping that many breeds. Their BLRW were stunning as well.

I bought hatching eggs and chicks from one of the top show breeders here in Michigan. My hubby and I drove almost two hours each way to pick them up, one trip for the eggs and another trip for the chicks a few months later. She has amazing birds. I don't have a chart yet but I need to order...

I'm so excited about the fist dozen of eggs my Black Copper Marans have laid, I just had to share with you all. They arent Meyer girls, though. I hope my Blue Marans start laying soon, but im not expecting eggs nearly as dark. This is a natural light photo so they are a little bit darker than...

As long as the horses have hay in their bellies, they will be fine. I only recommend blanketing old or severely thin horses, or the rare horse with non-existent winter fur. We have damp, driving west winds in my part of Michigan and none of my (or my friends) horses suffered through the winters...

Lovely girl, but may I suggest that she needs a a beak trim. A simple snip with dog nail clippers should do it.

Thats normal for RIR. If you ordered the Brown Layer Assortment, you aren't going to be getting any of the rarer breed chicks.

Rhode Island Red Red sex link (golden buff) White rock or Deleware

Here are a few of my BLR Wyandottes. All from Meyer, they are really awesome birds, very good type compared to some of the other breeds Meyer offers.

trying to catch up on all of these posts! ....

They all look like they have pea combs, which would make them all Dark Cornish. Barnevelders have single combs, so there is no way that one would have a pea comb.

The couple I've had weren't broody, but I only had them for a year.

Mine aren't. They just aren't super layers like a RIR or BR. I got about 3-4 eggs a day from a breeding pen of 5 Buff Orp hens, this spring.

I haven't finished reading all the posts yet, but I think she is probably a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte. I don't think GLWs are on the Rare Assortment list. Okay I just checked the website and ANY variety of Wyandotte can be in the Rare Breed assortment...Well I guess they need an ULTRA Rare...

If its worth anything, I live about 2 1/2 hrs from Meyer in Michigan and monday shipped chicks always come in Wednesday morning. I don't even watch the darn USPS tracking because they are TERRIBLE at updating it, most times it says the package made it to Columbus and then no updates until I get...

@COChix The hen you think is a buckeye is just a RIR, a buckeye has pea comb, heavy brows, and a thicker body type. On a side note, I had gotten a Buckeye from Meyer last year and couldn't stand her crazy flightyness. I don't know if that's typical of the breed but it'll make me think twice...

Not to rain on your parade, but two horses are going to decimate even a 4 acre pasture so your cow won't have any grazing. You may want to keep the horses in a small pasture and let the dexter have her own pasture because cattle aren't nearly as hard on grass.

If you feel the crop and its like a squishy balloon then I would worry about sour crop. A normal full crop will be firm and you will feel all of the texture of the feed in it. A compacted crop is harder to spot( looks like a regular full crop), but the bird will make head/neck jerking motions in...
