Buckeye Breed Thread

[Germaine_11.20]

Hi James!

Hey, I candled the eggs this morning and have at least six developing. It is still early but it is wonderful to know I am going to have more of your Buckeyes!

Buckeyes are a sweet breed, at least from what I have seen so far. A great addition to anyones flock.

In a round about way it did come from Chris, I have his roosters in my flock!

That's right .I remember reading that somewhere.Probably on this thread.They both look very nice.My roo looks more like the one coming from you.It could just be the picture.You and Chris have very nice birds.My birds are 100% Chris's line.I have some chicks growing from Laura.

I'm hoping for chicks from Laura and Chris but they don't like me sooooo they say..... no chicks for you!

Just kidding, i'm hoping to add some of their chicks to my flock.

Yeah me too because you wrapped those eggies so great that if they don't it is the PO's fault. You really did a great job James!

Mine were a little older I would say close to 30 weeks but they are laying up a storm and nice big eggs now.Two days this week I got an egg from every single hen.I was like wow

I even get a few huge double yolkers from time to time which are neat to get.
