Yeah Rancher it did kind of sound like you were a wee bit - weird!!!! Like you wanted to watch the gits flying and all that! - I am interested in the plucking machines etc. I would like to get more into meat birds but its hard cause I love all mine so much!!!! I have to decide on which ROoo to dispatch soon???? One is a fantastic Maran x Leghorn he is getting a really big boy and lovely to look at. A real strong fellow. ( Gerty's boy!) Then there is Nugget ( Drumsticks boy.) He is PR X Leghorn. Sometimes starts fights with Mable his sister they both attack as a tag team and are quite scary! However Nugget is a beautiful dark red and Drumstick his mum lays everyday - when she is well! So I was hoping if he had chicks they would be good layers. I heard Marans are good for meat??? So its hard to chose - then there is my wee Blue ! He is such a boney creacher compared to the others. He is easy to work with as he was hand reared and so is docile and loves to be caried about. He is a rare breed Cream legbar with the blue egg gene - if I put him to the Marans I should get chicks that lay blue/ green eggs???? Other than pretty colours - well DH says he can;t kill him so I would need to get someone else to do it as both Blue and Omlet are our babies - hand reared no mother hen kind of stuff. So we call them the kids. But reality is we cannot keep all the boys so what do you guys think????
Duck - Maranxleghorn Nugget Production Red x Leghorn or little Blue the cream legbar???? He just hangs with Omlet were only starting to get those two into the flock without the others killing them. They are much smaller and younger than the others.
Oesdog - Any thoughts????
And to think I thought you would have known me better by now. I am disappointed. Not really but maybe a little.
Rancher I wish I could send my boys over there then I wouldn't have to worry or watch!!!! - Oh yeah I did edit the gits for guts but your guys copied and posted before I corrected myself!!!!
