There are some Recessive Slates, some Tiger Blues and some Sweetgrass.

Did you have to sign a contract?

Did you have to sign a contract?

I checked with Porter before ordering the Slates. They have dropped the contract requirement. I would not have ordered them if a contract was still required.

Tiger Blues

Let me know how you do on the Tiger Blues, I have been wanting to order some for last 3 years. They just produce so many different varieties that you get so few Tiger Blues. Never even know that you will get Tiger Blues in order so hard to tell them apart as hatchlings. I'd love having a breeding group of them but have so many varieties now to deal with. They are a beautiful bird.

 

[Huntmaster]

All look healthy and ready to go as has always been my experience with Porter's birds.

The Tiger Blues are not for me and will leave as soon as their owner comes and gets them. Of the 5 received 4 look similar and one is clearly a different variety.

I believe that @OneMountainAcres had a bad experience with her order from Porter's.

These were all drinking immediately and began eating shortly after being put in the brooder.

Yes, I did. Mine were doing great when they arrived but then just randomly stated dying one by one with my own poults having no trouble with anything. I only had 2 survive and one of them died at maybe a year old.
