Beautiful, congrats!

LOL oh the "limited to 35 in this country" threw me.

If you don't mind me asking what country do you live in? I think that's a great list! :) Love my Cream Legbars and Isbars. If there was a catastrophe and I had to sell all my birds but 1 or 2 breeds those would be the top of the list.

How long has she been laying? This spring I had a Cream Legbar pullet laying white eggs- I was mystified- and then after about 2 weeks the white eggs stopped. She's in the big girl pen so I don't know for sure they've turned blue but it's been almost a month since I got a white egg. Maybe...

I have both, available now. Chicks or hatching eggs. See my website www.chickenfanatics.com. March special will be free Isbar chick with $150 order.

X2 They are bigger than my Cream Legbars which are a light fowl (with leghorn in the background), but not by much. They are edible of course but not dual purpose by any means.

Wow... Well I think I'm cleared from last year's Isbar infection fiasco! Both chicks from my first hatch are now about 7 weeks old (a black pair), and I have a set of 8 that are 5 weeks old. My "danger zone" last year was 3-4 weeks. Yay!!!!

I think it depends a lot on your local climate. Your best advice will come from someone who lives near you that hatches. In general anywhere from 20-40% humidity the first 18 days and then you want it higher, 35-60% for the last 3 days. It will take some trial and error to find the best...

That stinks.... sorry...

To me at least, green and olive are not the same. In fact when we created a standard for cream legbars in the us we allowed blue and green but specifically omitted the olive eggs allowed in the UK. Olive eggs are an indicator of brown egg genes and we want to keep the us cream leg bar lines as...

Mine have no trouble hatching in my GQF at regular temp and humidity settings. However they are ALWAYS the last to hatch of all the breeds, 12-24 hours after everybody else. How are their air cell size at lockdown? Not quite sure what is hysterical about that... but glad you got a good...

I would guess Olive Eggs....

Thank you. I am very proud of my little Isbar flock. So hopeful to have some great hatches this year and see what I get.

Both of those birds are blue. The only splash I have is the young whitish hen. His shoulders are more of a creamy yellow. Let me see if I have a better picture of him... no but I do have a picture of my last rooster, Rain, also a blue, who laid down his life saving his hens from a...

Here are some pictures of my Isbars from a week or so ago:

I've never had an Isbar with gold/red on them. I'd say their stock has gotten mixed and now has some autosomal red or some other gene leaking through. Maybe from the person she got her stock from so she really doesn't know they are not pure.

Gorgeous congrats!!

I first tried TetroxyHCA, which only worked as long as I kept them on it- it wasn't strong enough to kill the bacteria just suppress it. When I stopped treating I went right back to losing all the chicks. The vet prescribed Bactrim based on the paperwork from the lab. He said there was one...

My backup boy is 3 months old. I ordered a mature cockerel from another farm to use for now- then of course the hens stopped laying! I am making no claims of what other breeders' losses are caused by. I was tired of losing all of my chicks every single hatch so I took some dead chicks in...

Had to look it up- sounds like a good place to start.
