I just thought I'd share, because I was excited to find these from some pullets I hatched last year. 5 and 6's on the marans scale.

congrats

My hatch didn't turn out so great, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE this pic, so I thought I would share. Lavender Ameraucana chicks with their adoptive moms.

Hello! It is about that time where we thin through Yeh Roosters! I have several black jersey giants, blue lace res wyandottes, a tetra tint and a barred rock roo. All need homes relatively soon. We are in Parrish, so close to Jasper and not too terribly far from Birmingham etc. Pm me if interested. All are beautiful, healthy birds. I just don't need an extra 10+ Roosters.

Welcome, Wayne! Glad you could join us! I have an ex-roommate who was from Munford, but she moved. She had a cute little house on top of a small mountain (or a big hill) and I have tried to find it several times when I was in the area. Somehow, I never can.....

Hello, all. I have raised--and unfortunately lost on occasion--chickens for about 8 years now. I am not new to BYC but haven't posted in a long time. I'm glad to have found this thread of folks from Alabama. Our 5 acres is about 17 miles southwest of Montgomery in Lowndes county and we're about 5 miles as the crow flies from the Hyundai plant. I just finished putting in a floor to a coop I built last fall, a pic of which appears in my avatar and it's also in the Gallery. I hope to become a regular poster now that I'm retired. I just got in a bunch of chicks to replace a flock lost to stray dogs

. I'll post pics of them when I can. Most of them came from the Ideal Hatchery. They included some chicks in the shipment for warmth that appear to be Barred Rocks so I may have some BR roosters to trade or give away in the future. Hope to get to know some of you soon so we can trade stories about our chicken experiences. Thanks.

Glad to have found this thread, thanks for the welcome. Just got back into the poultry business. Been away from it for about 10 years. We have four Ducks we bought for my grandaughter about 2 months ago, and 20 chicks. We ordered 15 Black Austrolorps from McMurray Hatchery, they included 1 exotic. My mother, who lives with us, and two of my children were claiming the exotic so my wife went out and bought 4 more chicks that we don't know what they are yet. Our chicks are 4 weeks old, and I think the other 4 are 3 weeks old.
