Arizona Chickens

[City farm]

Well I was wrong about my eggs haha! I found 18 of them today! They were up on top of the hay, under the tarp, never thought they could get up there!

What a stash! The little rascals.:cd

These are 3 French Bresse that "Tiny" our jungle fowl is raising in the front yard. The one on the right has blue splash mixed, the other all grey one is a bit lighter, then finally the one standing up has a chipmunk stipe on her head..

Pretty color! Don't Bresse have longer breast bones than other chickens? Are they sex linked?

Not sure they might be. I will look into that.. These are blue/slash mix.. So that would be nice if they were.. They look a lot like the blue Andalusian.. On the bresse Fourm, they were selling processed in goats milk & oats for $50.00 a pound. My friend said their hatch rate is exceptional, that is why we ended up with egg's under "tiny". Always something going on over here..

The next rare fruit tree sale won't be until March!

Where do you plan on putting more trees? Front yard? And what are you wanting?

Total birds I'm taking to November show, my two Andalusians, four Birmingham rollers, and two parlor rollers! I don't expect my Andalusians to do amazing but I expect my pigeons to do very well! I'm sending the forum and $ tomorrow or Thursday

If your interested, Tropical Mango in Apache Junction has all sorts of rare fruit trees and the owner/caretaker is one of the few people in those situations that I actually believe what he says. There is also a Shamus Oleary(sp) on face book based out of Phx that does the same. Never been there due to the hours open, usually only on Sundays.

No I don't, Paul (my mentor and the one who actually owns the birds) gets feed from tractor supply and orders his bands from the NBRC store

I saw them & they are so cute! Tiny is a fierce mama! When your boys were rounding up the ducks, if either a duck or boy got too close to her chicks she'd launch herself at them. I found it funny since Tiny is so tiny!

I just set 5 Bresse eggs last night. I think mine are white but I'm not sure. They were bonus eggs from a lady in NC.

They had to hide them. "Someone" was taking the ones in the nests!

I bought a '95 GMC back in April. Found it on CraigsList. Truck is almost 20 years old, with 34K original miles. It was a U of A work truck.
Let your fingers do the walking!

Got a couple possibles but I do have to sell my truck first. I'll be glad to have a vehicle with no computer in it so that I can wrench on it. Changing my fuel pump in the 05 was ridiculous. I get caught up in shiny and new sometimes and was thinking I wanted a big brand new GMC. Then I got to thinking how much I hate paying a mechanic. I'll stick with the classic. Blow a motor, $1500 for everything. Fuel pump $25 need I say more.
