Dawn... eggs by June-ish? Oh, dear. I am going to be in trouble.

July/August, I hope. My BCM started laying this week at just 4.5 months! Cute little brown pullet eggs!

Here are Dolly's brother and sisters:
Lil' Joe who crows A LOT. But he is a very nice and respectful boy!

Pretty girls. These are the most feminine looking pullets...

Hi Dawn,
What color egg do you get from your beautiful splashes or what color egg did they hatch from if you hatched them yourself. I had grown to really like the look of the splashes & have even order eggs from different breeds that have a pattern. It is strange how your tastes evolve. I keep trying out new varieties & seeing how I like them. If that doesn't work out then a new person gets an opportunity to try something new too.....LOL

Hi!
I have not had eggs from the Splash pullets yet -- they are only 15 weeks old. (My lone BCM pullet just started laying last week at 18 weeks--that is probably where I confused you! Sorry!) Here are the two pictures I took of the Splash Marans eggs before I set them under my broody cochin. Unfortunately, I didn't have her in a secured spot and other hens tried to lay in her box, breaking some eggs before I caught on. Drat. Anyway, I ended up with two males and three females. Jeremy took one of each, and so I have the three you see posted! I hope to start selling fertilized eggs in July or August! They are nice birds, and just gorgeous! Lil' Joe is a nice young rooster, and his two ladies are very feminine looking, gentle girls. He has started mating with my EE and my RIR hen, so is a precocious fellow!

Best,
Dawn

Hi Everyone...

I'm over-run with goslings this year.
I have to find homes for at least 8 of these adorable Toulouse goslings.
They are $10 each, or PM for quantity discount.
I can meet you in Placerville, Sacramento, or anywhere in between.

Thank you!

They are my first attempt at better quality chickens, so I am pleased with them. They are from the Channing Grisham line, and I haven't totally figured out what that means, although folks cite it!

Hi, all! Just wanted to chime in from the East Coast. My son is moving to the San Jose area this summer. What can you tell me about it?
