Just wanted to let y'all know that little tribble's still doing great!
Three bantam Cochins hatched last night but no more tribble action :-(

P. S. I am also confused. I didn't know anyone was in danger of being killed

:-o

I would love to see more pictures of the tribble! And bantam Cochins are so so cute too!

Back right is the tribble, the other four are Mille fleur bantam Cochins. They are my main project and getting better with each generation! Ignore the food, I cleaned their cage about five minutes ago and the big girls scratched it out immediately XD

You totally need one! I've had a lot of chickens and the bantam Cochins are by far the sweetest! My first pair was an impulse buy. They were cute and the breeder said they were excellent quality. So I got them and later learned she was right about the quality. Really great impulse buy, four years later I've got a large flock and love it!

I will definitely be looking for some. Do you know if any good breeders that have birds for a reasonable price(I can't spend a couple hundred dollars) and they don't have to be show quality either.

Who are you referring to about the "did you kill them yet?"

Not sure the username is nchls school is going to kill chicks because they are not the right ones that's just not right sell the chicks or give them away don't cull them sorry if I'm ranting I have autism

I have read many posts recently that talk of crosses between serama and other breeds. I understand the curiosity and the wondering what a certain cross would look like as I have often wondered about the breeds I have. But what happens in the times to come. Many of these crosses will be sold or given away. And what will those people do? I think its a sure thing that some of these crosses will be used as pure serama and eggs/chicks will be sold to the unwary. People...like me... I feel certain that some of the eggs I got were from cross breeds.  Not just "pet quality" but crossbreeds; they had no serama characteristics at all-just small indiscernible bantams that had to be culled.

I'll buy them off you don't cull them there innocent

It sounds like nchls school was talking about something that already happened, in the past. Additionally, many times when people use the word "cull" they don't mean kill. The word is used any time one is removing birds from their flock, whether that's killing them, selling them, giving away, etc.
