2021 Chick Order

[JacinLarkwell]

I am probably going to need more silkies. I'd like more polish, but the pen I wanted them in really can't do more than 4. I'll have to think about that a bit.

I only have a trio and someone was interested in eggs until she learned I can't supply 3-4 dozen at a time. I mean, I could, it would just take like a month . So maybe I'll order more greys and hope I get hens. It's either that or fork over an ungodly amount for sexed whites from MPC, but supposedly I will get guaranteed females....

Hmmmm

Just got rid of 12 birds. The last 4 males and 8 girls. A Leghorn was missing, and I'm hoping she got left out and taken, not that she was taken from the pen.

So now the ad is removed and I'm down 12 hungry mouths

Did I mention my barred Cochin pullet is broody again?

Look at this handsome boy! Gosh he's so nice. Wish I could keep him. Hmmm, he's unrelated to the red flock, maybe I just need to get some more hens and a 4th male would work there. But he's rather old, I'm not sure it would work. Too bad, I'm not sure I can make more of him without specifically getting another rooster for that. He's got a nice crow too, like a normal one. Not shrill or squeaky or earpiercingly loud (looking at you, polish boy)

Also what do you think of the colors, @The Moonshiner down below?

And do these Cochin bantams look decent, @Overo Mare ?

How honest do you want me to be?

Did the BC's come from McMurray?

Nope. Dunlap. The lavender is from IDEAL and I know she's kinda rough.

I do know they're better quality than what I got from Welp. I also know they're not super amazing. But decent for a large hatchery product, right?

I know better than to get bantam Cochin from McMurray
