I’m located in Kentucky and have been on a serious search for a new beautiful breed to start breeding. I haven’t had much luck though in finding new breeders to befriend and do business with. I’m not particularly looking for a rare rare breed but something new to bring around my community. My...
Hi all!
I'm looking for recommendations for any local hatcheries in Oklahoma or breeders. We're in Guthrie and only allowed hens so sexed is preferred, but I understand that isn't always possible.
I'm not set on chicks, but looking for good layers. We're newbies and do want some family friendly...
Hi, I show through my high schools FFA chapter. I have been showing for 2 years and have owned 12 birds over those 2 years. I have a silver laced polish cock that would like some company. I want one or two friendly (not timid) pullets preferably silver laced, but I understand if that is too...
I’m trying to find a breeder in florida as close as possible to Sarasota! I’ll be passing through Miami from the keys this weekend though so willing to travel too!
Hi! I'm by no means new to raising poultry, I am however new to breeding them.
Does anybody have some tips, tricks or advice for a new breeder? Are there any supplies I should invest it?
I currently have some little ayam cemanis that I plan to breed when they're old enough. I'm also planning...
I am by no means new to chicken keeping and have been obsessed with birds and homesteading since I was a young child.
I currently have 5 ayam cemani, 2 unknown bantams, and 2 broad breasted white turkeys. I used to have a much larger variety of poultry and breeds. I am freelance commission...
So after buying 3 Pullets in April and having all three turn out to be cockerels, I am a bit discouraged. I was assured they were hens, but…either the breeder did not know, or they were unscrupulous. Either way, I don’t want to do that again.
I live in the Monterey Bay area. Anybody out there...
This may be an unusual request (but knowing other chicken people... maybe not?), but I'm looking for a young bantam Australorp pullet after losing my beloved "garden therapy" chicken last year. She was a real one, but I've read that the Australorp temperament is pretty similar to hers and they...
I’m wary of big time hatcheries or mainstream stores because of bad past experience. I bought from Meyer hatchery last year and 2/3 chicks were genetically weak and died. I assume it’s from over breeding and possibly inbreeding. I’ve heard other people who bought from there with the same exact...
I’m looking for show quality birds in Seattle area
I can’t keep roosters where I live so I’m looking for hens or sexed chicks
I also don’t have a huge preference on breed although I am looking for bantams
Thanks in advance
Calling all BBS breeders and geneticists! After much searching, I have yet to find a single post where there is concise, useful information on bbs breeding - so I’m hopefully starting one here! ☺️ I’m new to the BBS breeding world but am not new to the biology/genetics world, so it would be...
Hi, a friend of mine is looking into getting a poodle. I want recommendations if at all possible.
These are the details of what they want:
Female
Miniature or Toy
Any color besides Apricot.
Preferably less than 1,000.
It doesn't need to be super close, they said they can do a road trip this...
Hi there,
I can’t seem to find any breeders that ship chicks in the U.K., I don’t drive so it’s difficult for me to collect as I live in london and there really isn’t any places I can get to from here that sell chicks. Please let me know if you know any places selling and delivering. I’m looking...
Hello fellow Silkie enthusiasts! I have a couple roosters I'd like some Silkie breeders/experts to critique for me. I have a lot of trouble finding good pics and explanations of how a Silkie should look. I know the spotted white boy is not an accepted color but I'm wanting to know thoughts on...
Hey everyone.
I live in Athol Idaho and I’m looking to add a female call duck or two to my group of ducks.
Preferably white. Or one each of white or another color.
Does anyone have any hatchings coming up soon who are willing to ship?
If so, please shoot me a PM.
I’d love to hear from you...
Hey BYC Fam. I have had it in the plans to start a small hatchery and sell fertile eggs online from my duck, but am thinking I need to push that plan back as I am running test batches and crunching numbers. I’ve noticed some things, good and bad:
- Fertility has been 100% 👍
- Air cells have...
