are we ordering chicks? Thought you were moving to quails. I'm still tempted to run meat birds. Glad I don't have any during the rain this week though.

Maaaaaaannnnnn, don’t tell me this! I don’t need more chickens

Meyer has a special going for a while, free shipping if you got at least 15 birds, I was so tempted lol but the last hatch date for the sale was Monday so I missed it cause anytime this month wouldn’t have been good ha

Aka enabling everyone.

And you really do!! Do you have any chickens or did you get rid of them?

Dont order from hatcheries who treat their birds like cash. Order from people like me who put their whole heart into the opperation and dont grind up the extra males!

Hmm that’s a good point! I need to find a breeder and/or order from you one day.

Ah okay. I wasn’t sure since you said you were sticking to quail so I thought maybe you were getting rid of them lol

$1.60? Even at clearance, they must be pretty poor quality birds.

Puckers is good still too skinny. I stripped his undercoat for summer & he looks half as big. It's just starting to grow back in. He's definitely loving the cooler weather. 5*c here this morning and he's loving it.

Refresh our memories. What breeds ya got? Spring is just around the corner. My last 3 additions have been the barnyard surprises. Hatchery stock and a good way to learn.

Ideal does do volume.

Egg laying machines. When I realized Easter Eggers were mutts and characteristics are all over the map, I sat down and thought hard. Then the incubator happened... Ya just gotta find someone keeping a rooster.

I have foleys BLRW, greenfire Svart Hona, that roo is over some cuckoo marans hens to create black sex links, plus a flock of hatchery stock banty cochin. Of course i cant match their prices but their stock cant touch mine in longevity or overall quality.
