Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

I have a question for all the knowledgeable and experienced people on this forum. A purely commercial question. What breed/breeds are the easiest to sell?

Purely for egg laying I sell a lot for australorps and rir's. The more fancier breeds will sell for a higher price but you may not sell as many. Pekins and frizzles are popular in bantam too.

Love all the new baby chicks, makes me want to start hatching chickens too
I admired all the beautiful horses a few days ago too, although I am not a horse person really.
If I had a lot of land I would have goats and alpacas, and roosters in my flock!
I would love to see what other animals / pets everybody has, please show us some photos!
OK, I know this is a chicken website, but it's a social thread right?

yes it sure is

I am going to just ask a general question to not get anyone in trouble. Is there a member on here that has blue aussies? I am looking at buying some hatching eggs so if that member has any for sale can you pm me please.

Luke did you reset quail eggs? How long to go if you did? I have some in now that are due for lockdown on Sunday.

My backyard is now back to normal. One chicken coop with my 4 hens and one 20 week old pullet.
Friend's chickens went back home on the weekend and the roosters are in the freezer.

Update on my baby quails: out of the two I had to hatch - the little one didn't make it. I thought it was doing well, but then it got weaker and died.
The one with spayed legs made full recovery. It is smaller than the others, but doing well. 10 healthy quails in the brooder

I have 22 eggs in the bator now, from my birds. Fertility test, see how we go.

Sorry about the one you lost red but well done on the full recovery of the other one.
