A Bielefelder Thread !

Will you still be shipping them elsewhere? Where are you located?



As far as the flighty biels I can't comment on them BC I don't own any yet but they're on my want list. Now as far as other birds being flighty many of our pullets were flighty as chicks or got so just before point of lay and almost all of them of many breeds became much less flighty and much sweeter after starting to lay including our EE, wyandottes(though still not the friendliest), Isa browns, oegb, and our buff orps. Most noticeable are our orps, EE, and our oegb. Idk why they settle after starting to lay but I'm glad they do BC our EE were terribly flighty until they began laying now they're some of our friendliest birds.
Hth


Okay not to turn you guys off of MCD's sweet tea but my mother and I have both personally gotten tea there before only to find mold floating in our cups on more than one occasion. I no longer drink their sweet tea and usually skip the unsweetened as well my Mom does still drink it though. I have since heard many horror stories from people that I have known who've had similar experiences and one person who worked there legs just say ewww! Part of the reason I pass on their sweet tea although I love tea.

On a totally other note if you like lemonade last year Wendy's had a blackberry lemonade that was to die for hoping they come out with it again this year. You should all try it if it comes back its terrific!

Okay..... no more sweet tea at Mickey D.

can't wait to see more pictures!
well, I guess that just flew over my little pumkin head...

but I have an excuse for the last two days!

was being totally abused!

no solid food for two whole days!!! I don't do well without food!

had to have a stupid colonoscopy today... which means I won't have a good excuse for the rest of the week!

at least I don't have to have another one for the next 10 years... thank goodness!!

GAK!!! The dreaded colonoscopy!!! I have to have one every other year...and drink the icky poo diareah juice & get an endoscopy every year for my lovely pancreatic tumor....and so far, I once again have strictures...oh yes ! No matter what I eat, it backs up, yes folks, I AM FULL OF IT!!!
At least I have a realistic approach to all this...he he he...hope your colonsoscopy goes well !

I have a question.. If I cross my Bielefelder rooster with my hens of different breeds such a gold and silver laced wyandotes, red star, EE etc will the chicks be auto sexing? If yes are they the same chipmonk stripes and dot on head?

Each one of those breeds is different genetics,,,so no one can answer that question.

As soon as I saw this I thought of an episode of Boardwalk Empire titled Bone Tuna, it was a play on "Buona fortuna", Good Luck in Italian although I am told not the way an Italian would say good luck. Supposedly this version will bring you bad luck. It certainly brought the guy in the series bad luck. Ahhhhhh, I digress. In bocca al lupo! It is a beautiful Tuna.

Gracie !
The hard part is to kark a tuna, you cannot simply "de scale" them...Tunas have 2 layers of armor with scales in between, so they must be karked.

Then it got filleted, baked, and then refrigerated, then the next day it was pressure canned in jars...YUM.

I have several pullets and 1 roo... My babies range from 3-6 weeks of age. They are all SUPER sketchy! I'm thinking of selling most of them and maybe keeping just the cockerel and a pullet. Thoughts?

Sketchy ?
Have you any photos of them ?
What do you mean by sketchy ?

 

[Chickielady]

How old is this hen? She is so pretty!

Then, she was 6-7 mo old, she is 2 now, and lays jumbo eggs !
And she is BOSSY!

They are ALL beautiful, every hen I have is awesome !

 

[Chickielady]

Hope this went well! Don't buy anything today, they say that anesthesia is bad stuff!

ROTFLMAO!!!!!

Jumpy- afraid of us. Our Marans are total opposite

All chicks go through a "flip out" stage at about 3 weeks to maybe 5 weeks...it is when they realize that BIG GIANT MONSTERS with no feathers ROAM the planet.....after that, they are so super calm.................
