Not one of them made it past two years.

Culled , predation, disease, or unknown causes ? If you don't mind me asking.

Yay! I just got my BBRs that I bought from Jim Zook. Oh Man! Are they pretty!

Very nice. My start in cubalayas were from Jim. I'm actually thinking of getting a new male or pair to reliven the tails of the males.

He is selling a nice pair of white Cubalayas. I really wanted them but my money ran out.

Do you know how much? I think I might email him and ask what BB Reds he has for sale if any.

glad you got some good ones.

Full sibling young cubalaya crosses. Mother is a completely white cubalaya hen, father is a mix of cubalaya, old english game and sumatra. Early June hatch.

I initially was not planning on using these as breeders, just an experiment. Now I'm planning to at least breed the off white pullet in some way not sure about the cockerels. I guess I'll let them develop more and see how they fill out.

That pair is gorgeous!

I would love to have hatching eggs from them if you do plan on pairing them together.

Jim is very fair. He does not charge a lot for his birds but the shipping is quite expensive. I paid 175 dollars for my pair of BBR's. But that is including shipping. He actually ended up sending me one of his own breeding hens because a hawk attacted the pullet that I bought from him. He is a great guy And he really knows what he is doing when it comes to how to ship birds. The birds were in transit 2 days but very very strong and lively when they got out of the box. Even though I had food and water right there ready for them the rooster crowed about 10 times and did a little flirting with the hen before he even thought about drinking and eating.
