Aran- I can tell you that the Cream Brabanters are just beautiful. You will not be disappointed. I just got 5 from a BYC member and I am so, so, sooo glad I did. Absolutely gorgeous!! I'd post a pic for ya, but dumb me dropped my camera this morning...so it's no-can-do until I buy a new one.

oh cool thanks af...the ideal website just has the drawings rather than photos of the birds but the picture was nice so i picked em...maybe ill get some SF next time

 

[AccidentalFarm]

Yeah, bummer that the SF's are sold out. I'd like to have a roo...very nice looking birds.

i have searched the web now for decent photos of the cream brabanters and i cant find any anywhere.

Any ideas on how old they are before they lay and if they are any good as layers?

Here is a picture of one of Missi's cream Brabanters.

and one of my gold's and Missi's creams.

My Brabanters lay a medium size white egg about every other day, sometime more often. The birds have great personalities and dispositions. You will enjoy them.

Oh, thanks for posting the pictures, Carla. I really wanted to show the Brabanter's off. They are such beauties. And super personalities. We are really enjoying having them. One of the big girls is such a talkative thing..cute, cute, cute!

Aran!!!!!!

WELL....don't keep us waiting. Did your new chicks arrive safely this time?

How many actually arrived...did they send warmers?

 

[aran]

nope not yet

they were shipped tuesday morning so they should be here today!!!

I am soooo excited. I cant believe how much fun this has been and how much enjoyment my son and me are getting out of this. It is the first thing he wants to do in the morning and the last thing before bed is sit in the coop with his chickens jumping around all over him. So cute and a really great learning experience for William.

I will post as SOON as they arrive dont worry. I took the afternoon off work in anticipation of picking them up. At least the cold should not be a problem this time around--> bigger order and the temps here are in the mid 80s during the day.

by the way thanks very much for posting the pics of the brabanters...they are beautiful..cant wait to get em home!

I had a hilarious dream last night. I dreamed that you got your order and low and behold there were 42 birds in there.

I just new your wife would croak!!
