Dianna, I am glad that your neighbor will take them. I hope I told you about them in time and Banaynaychicken still has them.

And most people who have chickens and especially roosters, don't want new neighbors moving in that will give them trouble about them neither.

AMEN THATS IT & RIGHT ON BLUE BABY..!!! so hows by you today ..? any new chicks happening over at your place...?

@Parront ...The Australorps are a dual purpose breed that lays light tan eggs well. They are a little bit bigger than the size that you mentioned, though.

I have a brief pause, and then more due to hatch out on the 27th.

well i would look into the cornish meat birds, i dont know much about them , but did hear they are calm birds, my tractor supply in douglas AZ has those chicks right now, i saw them last Wednesday wile down there buying feed. they also had white leghorns, i did want a few of theos ,but the workers didn't have a lable on the white leg horns from the Cornish chicks & they all looked alike andalso they were straight run to, so geeezzzer...? i think ill wait till next spring, and order a few white leghorns with the tractor supply , they take separate orders , that way i dont have to buy 15 chicks at a time from a hatchery when i only want 2 or 4 white leg horns, so yeah thats the best way to get what you want.

Maybe we can still look around for a breeder who has the White Leghorn pullets locally? Are you planning on doing the Austra-Whites, too?

Well, those 2 Austra-White chicks that I hatched out are doing ok. I moved those 2 and 3 of the pure Australorp chicks outside 3 days ago into a large wire dog crate. I was just out there checking on them all, and they are doing ok. My next door who I got those 2 white eggs from (the one that the dog's killed all of their hens) would like to get those 2 chicks from me in a couple more weeks after they clean up all the weeds in the yard. They will be bringing me another bag of chick feed tomorrow for the chicks out there in my pen.
