You're referring to the future Lav Wheatens, right?

Congrats!

I picked up some lavenders at a local auction on Monday. There were at least 5 other pens of lavender pairs there. They were all obviousy culls. There was also a pair of lav orpingtons too. Would anyone know a breeder in eastern PA and who these birds might have been?

Could have been Harry Shaffer's.

Does anybody have any Black, BBS, or Wheaten bantams laying right now, and the ability to ship some out Wednesday or Thursday? I'm trying to get a few eggs in the incubator for a New Year's Day hatch.

PM me if so.
Thanks!

Can't wait to see those Lav Wheaties. . . The males especially will be gorgeous, having the "isabel" trait of a creamy lemon yellow and lavender.

My big BR rooster is running over those hens now. He's welcome to the eggs, I've been eating them. They'll either hatch out BR/AM crosses, or AM's.

ETA: I only have 2 black hens, the rest are some shade of blue.

Do you think you'll have 6 to 12 available towards the beginning of January?

I'm getting that many a day now, so probably.

Here is my Bantam Ameraucanas. Just a gorgeous little bunch of birds and have become some of my favorites.
