Hi Ryan

It will be next winter before I will face it with them, this year I am expecting that my Icelandics will do fine.

I just read on another site that One Earth Farm has sold their flock to someone in Mn. Anybody here know who to?

I am still looking for a source of Whites. It will be.

There isn't anything about it on their website, nothing on their facebook page either.
I emailed them and asked. If they respond I'll pass it on.
They do have a phone number listed on their website but I'm not going to try calling.

Yes, they have sold their flock to someone in Minnesota. He did not say who.

Living in northern Ontario, where I frequently let my birds free range, the thought of having this breed appealed to me. I was able to acquire a Partridge Chantecler cockeral. The feathering is beautiful. Photos do not do it justice. I have it with a couple of Gold laced Wyandottes for now but I will be keen to get some hens in the spring. I hope to breed them in the future.

Very pretty!

You are certainly in the right climate for Chanteclers ! I think I am also on the slopes of Ruby Mtn in Wa. There is a great deal to be said for breeds that were selected with winter hardiness in mind !

Thats a very handsome roo, how old is he?

oh sweet. very handsome bird. I didn't think I'd like partridge, but seeing this picture makes me think I judged too quickly. This is actually the first pic I've seen of one and I like it.
I am hoping to get eggs from the whites come spring and start raising a flock of them.
