Even though I don't speak Dutch, I enjoyed the video, @Drieslag. His birds are so pretty, and his butchering process is remarkably humane. Wish I had a setup like that...

Those are pretty little chicks, sharol. The one at the top bears a striking resemblance to our Fayoumis.

I've given up trying to post anything substantial from my phone. Swype is a great concept, but it takes me 10 times longer to correct its errors than it takes me to spell out each individual word.

Yes, mine is especially evil when I'm WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY past my bedtime and too tired to think straight or function properly. It sees a weakness and takes advantage. It's never, ever me.

Hahaha, @1kluckychik !!! That was a good one! Looks like I did...4 times! Sometimes my computer does weird things and it looks like my message doesn't send...until I read the thread and there it is a gazillion times...

I'm a terrible enabler...financially responsible for 11 of my brother's 19 chickens and "socially" responsible for 3 of them (my best chicken friend gave him those). Been trying to get my mom and in-laws to start flocks of their own, but thus far, I've been unsuccessful. Still, I soldier on...

I'm guessing you are your own worst critic. ;-)

Thank you, Wisher. Congratulations, by the way! That is quite an accomplishment for you and the young lady who bought and showed your cockerel. Do you have any pictures of him?

I must say that even in diagram form, that rooster is simply regal, @Drieslag . Who among us wouldn’t love to have a bird like that based on looks alone...and the mischievous, silly Campine temperament would make it even better! I am fascinated by your story of how the Campine was reintroduced...

:hit I couldn't agree more. Those of us who are blessed to own this breed ought to sing its praises at every given opportunity...before it's too late. That would be a sad, sad day in chickendom. :(

Those are some GORGEOUS birds, @Wisher1000 and @lawatt! :-) Thank you, Sumi, for bringing some much-needed attention to this lovely rare breed.

The silver variety is stunning. Wisher1000 should be a good person to ask.

Alex is exactly as you so eloquently describe her, @Alexandra33. I am ALSO smitten with that quirky little squirt of a pullet! I'll never forget the day you walked through the yard, chomping on an apple, and Alex ran you down, flew up on your arm, and helped herself to your snack. We all got a...
