Barnevelder breeders lets work together and improve the breed

[RachaelS]

Yep kind of what I thought

what about the feathers of the older girl? What is wrong with her?

I've not ever messed with Barnvelders. Anybody know where I could find a good line to start breeding with?

Try Rockinpaints here on BYC. She has a website 'www.fancychick.com' and is located in Ohio She sells hatching eggs as available here, too. I have a Barnie from her through another friend and it looks nice!

Trisha has gorgeous barnies, but she's not selling right now and I think she has a waiting list.

Pinkchick has pure Johan lines, but she only has 1 hen laying right now.

Thanks Chooks.

I have 2 more girls growing out, wish they would hurry up. My best friend just hatched 7 out of 9 eggs, of course the cockerel ratio had to be higher than the pullet ratio. 4 cockerels and 3 pullets but I guess since I hijacked both my rooster and my Stephanie from her that I should let her keep them all.

I have 10 eggs in the 'bator that go into lockdown on Tuesday, cross your fingers for good candling results.

Ohhhhhh and YES, TRISHA'S BARNIES ARE GORGEOUSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

My eggs are on day 13 ! Things are still looking good

Fingers Crossed for no V's and lots of pullets

Thanks for the information everyone.

Gonna repost pic of my hen, please help me understand what is wrong with her lacing, or is there hope that since she is young when she moltes she will have the correct lacing?

 

[Happy Chooks]

Rachael.....I'm totally new at this, but your hen almost looks barred of sorts.

Hopefully someone with more experience will offer more.
