Does he have a site we can go to for chicks?

Tell us about his green layers please....

Wow! But what is a SBEL? I can't keep all these abreviatons in my head........

I have California greys. They lay better than my barred rocks. Not quite as good as my leghorns. They are quiet, fairly friendly and get along well in the chicken coop. They lay white eggs.

The California grey is sexable at birth like barred rocks.

I don't think CCL have a double gene either. Their eggs would be a deeper blue.

Crested cream legbars are auto-sexing blue egg layers........

Ok, I read this twice....... are you trying to make the Arkansas blue autosexing........... or the jaerhons blue egg layers?

Where do I find revolution?

Eprinex is my choice of medication for mites also. There is a feral guinea at my barn. I am positive he is my source of mites. But I can't catch him...........

Do you know how much your hens weigh? Have their eggs gotten larger in size as they have gotten further along in their laying cycle?

Woo hoo! The incubator is running already hatching Araucana / Cuckoo Marans olive eggers! I will be saving room for your eggs. :)

I sure hope I am on the waiting list....... if I am not please add me to the list!
