Thanks for the pics, I hate to hear she's gone too! The chick actually looks almost to be a quail chick, pretty much black with a tan face, he just had the eye liner tan is the only difference. Amazing how much he did change growing up isnt it, you wouldnt have ever thought from a chick, that was what he'd end up being. I still love his adult color pattern, the speckled breast is nice!
They're just a gorgeous as I imagined if not more! I can't wait to get some of those sweet little birds! I'll have to occupy my time by making everything perfect for them and by staring at the pictures over and over!
Did ya get some new pictures of the bantam phoenixes by any chance too? I know there's another thread for that one but I thought I'd ask here anyway.
I love your birds! Ocellated turkeys and all! (Edit: guess I saw a picture posted where you were looking for them? Did you ever find them?)
Yep, like Rareroo said, I put some of the phoenix over on his thread for them, also took some new ones of the seramas, crevecoeurs, mottled houdans, and silkies. We hope to be reworking the ol website over the holidays if I can get time, and get my wife to sit down here with me, she'd the web builter I just feed them and take pics, no idea how to work those website builders, LOL
But we hope to get it all up soon. Still waiting on all the tails to finish up on the peafowl and we'll get them on there too.
As for the Ocellated turkeys, one of my peafowl breeders in Texas has them, and I REALLY want some, but they dont breed well in captivity, and they are about $3000 per pair when available, but I'm on his list, if he gets some.
Have you ever seen a pic of them??? They are unbelievable!
Glad you liked the d'anvers, we got ya on the list, just let me know what you want when ever you are reday.
See ya
