Delawares

[speckledhen]

I should have eggs in a month or so. My Delawares are going on 18 weeks old now. They come from good stock, from McDaniel and Meier lines.

Oh miss_jayne you and Shelleyb1969 are way to funny! Those were just normal size eggs, you should have seen the ones when they first started to lay, they wouldn't fit in the carton, (double yokers of course)!
I'm just feeding them the 16% layer from Tractor Supply, and a bit of scratch when I close them in for the night, plus they free range all day!
I almost got all your eggs collected, would you like the same amount as shelley1969? she got 20 Delaware, and 5 of the Leghorn X Delaware! It doesn't matter to me, I can send 25 Delaware if you are not interested in the Leghorn Cross! Let me know!
Have a good night!

csibb
are you interested in selling more eggs?

 

[shelleyb1969]

Yep, those Delaware/Leghorn cross eggs are the biggest eggs I've personally ever seen!

And I can't say enough about how well packaged the eggs were and how very clean as well. I set mine in the bator tonight, so the countdown has begun! I'm going to start a separate thread for this hatch...I'm sooooo excited!

Greycoop I don't have a problem shipping you some eggs, how many you talking, and when?

csibb-

Thanks for getting back to me about sending eggs. Your Dellies are beautiful and I'm very excited to begin raising this this breed. Although, I think that I'm going to be a little more patient and wait until the spring to begin hatching. Our winters up here in the North East can be brutal. I think they would have a better start in the spring. Thanks again.
