Arizona Chickens

[City farm]

i lived in phoenix for a while and I'm also thrilled that there's almost zero ambient light out here.

We did have one of those “dark sky“ neighborhoods. Our block is The only one that has a single street light, ugh!

How did you get the aloha chicken? Does she do well in the heat?

From a chicken friend, I think he is helpIng the person that started the breed. From what I understand she want more yellow legs. But don’t quote me on that. Yes so far, they just started laying. I did not loose any this last summer.

Yes, she was breeding for the yellow leg's. My current rooster that I have now has the lighter colored leg's. My last 2 rooster's had the darker leg's on them.

Sommer is still around. She is working hard to have the breed accepted to the APA before she has to move in 3 years. Alaho's were bred here in Arizona, Phoenix actually and do well in our climate. Your hen is of the color type called 'Dun' I have Aloha's and am breeding the 'Confetti' type.

I wonder if she is still selling hatching egg's or chick's for those. I wouldn't mind making more of the NN/Aloha one's. My Louie is a pretty good sized NN. Or, I could go with a breeding group of those if the boy's wouldn't be too closely related to the girl's.

I don't have any over here in his age group that could help to keep him company. He would be cold with nothing to snuggle with at night.
