RFR - I'm going to start this project this fall !! I only have one splash hen :-(, the rest are blues. I will have to wait for my splash chicks to grow up. The little bit of info I've found tells me exactly what you said. I talked w/ Chicken Hill, I'm getting my chicks from her. She said...
I also have a girl like yours and 1 chick that is crossed beaked. They were purchased and I didn't notice it right away. They eat & drink fine. The little cross beak gets her beak trimmed with cat toenail cutters. I keep upper and lower as short as possible. They are destined for my layer...
Just wanted to pop in and give CHICKENHILL the . My girlfriend & I just received our combined order of SLW, BLRW, and 3 different color Orps. ! All arrived in NY happy & healthy !
This was our 2nd order from Chickenhill, our 1st group of chicks are about 7 wks old now.
Very, very...
Donna are your birds LF or Bantam ??? If your BLRW's are as Beautiful as your Blue Barred Rocks....................................................................................................................
....................................................... I'll be waiting in...
Oh, don't feel bad. This year for every hen I hatched ...............I also hatched 2 - 3 roos It didn't matter what the breed was. If you have the room, grow them up........................ they make great soup !
I have a GLW pullet, that has a " wry tail ". Not sure if that's the correct term. Will this cause problems down the road with laying ??
I know this is the BL thread, but you guys are very knowledgeable and I was hoping for some feed back
