That's way too deep for me. Welcome to BYC.

Hello, and welcome! Do you have a flock of some type of poultry?

That's way too deep for me. Welcome to BYC.

Having been deep into chickens starting age 9, then 4-j medalist and eventually 4-h all star and junior leader, chickens we're a way of life...now, at 60 been dabbling for about 7 years in the high desert...different life than Cali as a child.

I had found an article about birds bread in China...dual purpose, mostly for good egg production...majority we're black with an occasional red...exactly like the pick TSC supply hatchery shows for asian blacks...I poo pood the breed until I found this out-of-country article...I can't find it again though...
I had 5, no personality issues, very hardy in cold climate, good layers with light colored eggs, seemed like good converters...they are a part of my current barn yard mix...any chicks that are black or mostly black and have the wing tips with white feathers are desendants of those asian black. So...my mix is hamp x moran x black asian x black sex link x Austrolorp x black Americana...this mix lays well, converts well, forages well, smart AND docile, with roos weighing in at 9 lbs, hens at 7 to 8 lbs, laying at 20 weeks.

I call the progeny of this mix, the 'Charmed Ones"
