Sorry for misinterpreting. Sure I'll take a rooster...and then I will cull my rooster (see pic)...I was told that I would have to hatch Lucys eggs to see if I get a hen. If her pullets lay brown eggs, then she doesnt carry two blue genes. here is pics of Lucy
the cockerel i was going...
If you're hubby said No.. I would err on the side of caution. I started in June this yr. Lessons Learned by being a sucker as I ended up buying substandard chickens from dishonest local sellers. I'm thankful now that since my birds were taken by predators or just dropped dead for no apparent...
I get confused on who I'm talking too esp from my phone! I just started posting on BYC recently because I am learning a lot being a 1st timer... I will get the thread replies right sooner than later!
We should I've allready met Ugly foot and she's great! She lives in Athol.
Hatching FBCMs and Mixed Breeds.. All my Roos are Purebred FBCM and Wheaten Marans. I have Dual set of unrelated Cream Legbars, Greenfire line but they are still young so next spring and summer they will be ready
Firedragon1982 funny you mentioned that I sold my new 1588 Genesis to a new Chicken Enthusiast as myself and she texted me and hatched the same exact amount! I'm bummed found out my supposedly Ameracauna is an EE. I wanted a true Ameracauna
So far you're the 2nd person that lives close by. I live off hwy 41 in between Rathdrum and Spirit Lake. I'm incubating right now they should be hatching on Dec 6th. I will have too many and will need to sell some off
Sure that will be great for you to check them out! By Aug 2016 all of my pullets will be Hens. Everyone loves fresh eggs. I have a friend Chicken breeder in Blanchard who has 31 egg customers and several hundred chickens. She may have some of the ones your looking for. Today was such a nice...
I think thats great! I need to buy another Wheaten Marans Rooster to mate with my Wheaten Hens. The Roos have the prettiest feathers.
I have 2 of the breeds you are looking for: French Black Copper Marans (feathered legs) and Cream Legbars (Greenfire farms stock). I agree pretty chickens...
Uglyfoot! Cool! It's nice to know other chicken owners in the area :) I see a bunch of chickens on Hwy 41 by Twin Lakes roaming the highway at times!!! They are brave!
Yes...MOST Definitely! At first I was like...okay 7 hens and 1 Rooster are good! What am I going to do with all those eggs! Then we ran out of eggs! My doctor wants me to eat 5 eggs daily. I was skeptical on the yokes, so she said okay 4 1/2 yokes!!! .. Well my family loves egg salad, egg...
