He looks like a BCM crossed with a cochin. He's a big fatty!

He's gigantic. Hard to tell in that pic, but he's huge compared to my fat 24 week old pullets. I hope he doesn't get too frisky too soon. He's so far scared of me, so I hope he doesn't turn into a meanie. Plus he only crows in the AM when he's in the coop so no one can hear him. yet.

He's bigger than my fat cat so he's gonna be fun to catch. His name is Puff Daddy.

Look at this little guy. He's from the NY hatch and he's complaining already!! He's either a frizzle EE or a frizzle cochin. Green legs but feathered, so take your pick.

So you DID get a bator???

Maybe I'll ask you to hatch bantam lavs for me instead!

We can meet halfway (for lunch of course) and swap some chickies!

ETA: I'm researching it! I need another critter like a hole in the head...but I am intrigued! Would love for our farm to be a destination for people to see/feed the animals.

Well I dont have it yet lol. Its coming next week.

But I'm getting ready!!

Well we could do that, couldnt we

I'll put as many of the lav eggs in there as I can. I still want to ship some to you though! Hopefully the little boogers will start laying really well again, so I can get them out to you. Should I put some eggs from you in the bator too? I'm debating, hmmmmm. I think it will hold quite a few, its a LG still air. I hatched some eggs in a cardboard box with a heat lamp before, so I think I can figure out a real incubator lol.

You should do it! How fun would that be, to have a bunch of different animals! Theres a place like that here by me, they have a ton of differnt animals on thier farm, they sell some too, they have everything you could imagine, even foxes!

This post!!

Hahahahah.. Well, he can be a replacement roo if my current one doesn't work out, but otherwise he goes on craigslist. I wanted a frizzle girl, but none of the rest of my chicks are frizzling.
