Were have you been Rancher-? Hope all is well and have a Happy New Year.

Have a great trip - Alaska is a place I always wanted to visit but my toes wouldn't want me living there in Winter.

Julie has some nice Delawares but this thread is about a Bonham recreated strain - I think you would find these would hold up type wise against any - at least that I have seen.

OK sounds right to me - I wasn't sure who made all three styles- I think the two applied with pliers would be more secure- the leg bands from the NPIP ID are applied with the pliers [ grommet style you refer to ] Never lost one except in the "plucker" and any would most likely come loose then.

I am not sure if same company or not - The Nationals I am referring to you push thru and then crimp a tab that is inserted in the hole[ same as the NPIP leg bands ] If you have a problem with eyes just get someone else to apply while you hold chick,

No but here are pics of National band on some day olds - I would think large fowl chick will all be similar as far as bandind- the national tag I think is even a little bigger than the jiffy https://nationalband.com/wing-band-instructions/ Edited to add: Just send them to us - we will tag em

Wait then - I some times do it up to 2 weeks but there is more empty space available in the band with small wings. Less chance of cutting a tendon on the front edge of the wing. IMHO Yes it looks big on them at first but they grow into them in no time. Then the problem is finding the band in the...

Once you do a few it will become easy - I put the band in pliers and dip in peroxide 50/50 - prevent infection and transfer of germs. Get er done

Ditto's - but I point out I don't know of anyone that has pushed the commercial feed on them and restricted calorie burn. And we won't know till its tried. Waiting for breed material is the drawback in early cull dates.

And to get a non black pin feather bird

There are not any original 50s generation out there to compare to that I am aware of The weights you quote were commercial house operations feed high protein food with little movement. You can't compass that to free range birds. The market birds prior to CornishX were not free range . I am...

Short answer is - not yet .but we are not sure what that was with the old 50s Delaware ? This study may be interesting to you http://japr.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2014/10/25/japr.2013-00843.full And keep in mind two things. 1. The study used hatchery Delaware's to compare with the...

Wife says: Go to Facebook and send him a message on his personal page: Michael Newman is how he's listed on FB. His picture is of a man holding a precious little girl-both are laughing

Don't know anyone in Texas- Micheal Newman is in the Panhandle of FL - he has this line and some of his own. Usually on the Del club @ Facebook but someone else will need to point you as I don't do Facebook.

All have a Merry Christmas ! PS: it looks delicious

It can never be that easy - can it ?

First thing I noticed was the head / comb [bottom] and Agree like on left third pic down. But hans on will mean more - pics are always tough to judge

For shame ! But that reminds me we were eating at a quaint little country village seafood place that had great food. Not fancy and on a little backwater creek. Atmosphere was very casual and relaxed setting . Paper plate and cups but great food. In middle of our meal this lady starts raisin "H"...

I would say the taste report was good to excellent - But the cook says "bit" of wine so I presume she drank the rest ? Sure had a great variety of spices in there. Glad you enjoyed it.

Waiting for the TASTE report ?
