Spent hours out at the ranch today and need to do auctions for all these juveniles!

10+ Jubilee Orpington Cockerels.... 4-7 months old

Tolbunt Polish juveniles, smooth & frizzle, pullets and cockerels!

The Lavender Marans are turning out so pretty and I have an extra rooster so I plan to put in on some black marans hens (getting a few already, but if you have a lead on great ones let me know!)

The Partridge Brahmas are superb, Four gold partridge pairs available! The were created using blues so the thought is that they have recessive blue genes. Many have blue feathers on their feet!

The Mille Fleur Leghorn pens are my pride and joy. The F3s are laying and it's about time to start thinning the pens for what I think is the best of the best. I hope to show these and others in Stockton.
Jubilee Orpingtons are in 3 pens right now with a mix of Marc Sacre & Greenfire lines - no one is laying...a bunch of free loaders!! But I love those fluffy butts!

Tolbunt Polish have 2 pens now with proven breeders and juveniles and will be getting 13 juveniles from Gretchen Bare next week so they'll be in pen #3!!! So exciting to be on the committee and working towards standardizing this breed!

PM me if you need anything! I'll be putting up auctions tomorrow hopefully

Thinking about growing my own Mealworms. Any thoughts on this?

I grew mealworms. It was easy. It's impossible to breed enough to be the primary feed source for a large group of chickens, though. Chickens can eat them as fast as you can hand them out! They are great for treats and taming shy birds.

I had 3 large, clear, storage type tubs. I filled them with wheat bran. I would add an apple slice, carrot etc. for moisture each day. I also had a paper towel or cardboard tube in with the ones that were ready to turn into pupae. I started by ordering many thousands of mealworms and put them in the first tub. I had beetles in one tub, pupae in another and mealworms in the third. I would feed half the worms to the chickens and let the other half be breeders.
