Dixie Chicks

[BriardChickens]

Neither have I.
Red Chantecler (AMB): A newer creation of this breed. Shades of reddish orange. Good layers and colorful. These have not yet been admitted to the APA Standard. Chicks $6.00 each (10)(SOLD OUT THROUGH MARCH 24, 2015)

They have a quite a few unheard of breeds.

Sandhill you said? I'll have to check them out, although I could never buy..

Nice Beer can! That sure does make the Sandhill experience better

Briard... Sure wish your neighbors would feed it led.

so do I, but I think they actually like it.

BC, they don't ship chicks to Canada anymore but they do seeds, their seed catalog is unreal!! All open polinated heritage breeds that they grow and collect seeds themselves. Tons of rare varieties of sweet potatoes, couple hundred breeds of corn, tomatoes everything. They even have rare black peanuts. There isn't a seed company anywhere that could even come remotely close to what they have.

Does anyone know the difference between a Jubilee English Orpington 5 month old roo and a 5 month old pullet?

Wow, just quickly checked out their site.. I'll have to go back there when I am setting up my garden in BC in the future. (we plan to move, date to be determined)

Beer Can, have you checked out Vesey's Seeds here in Canada? Huge collection of seeds, located in PEI. Not sure if they ship to the US. I've ordered from them, good quality of seeds, but didn't get far with the plants due to my climate and lack of greenhouse. I should have watched the hardiness zones more careful.

Alaskan, not much forking in the tree and too much forking in the bush...

Aged 5 months, Jubilee English Orpingtons.
I went out to take pic. It is dark.
Got them today.
Have them in a hutch til Saturday. 2 days in a quiet confined hutch til Saturday when I move them Into a 10x20. A smaller area makes it easier for me to get my hands on them and pet them. Never bought a hen and roo aged 5 months.
