dubbing in michigan

[crimsontide]

Hello I would start by saying thank you to byc hopefully this is the right section for this... I am a southeast michigan first time small farm owner. I am raising oegb's and I am in desperate need of help dubbing my flock. I have never done this before. Someone with the experience would really help me. I want to learn. I can buy the supplies and pay for your trip and lunch included! I have some time to wait they are 3 weeks old right now but wanted to get a jump on it so i can have my "chicks"in a row. Thank you in advanced.

What is 'dubbing' your flock?

OK-round trip airfare from NY will run about $600 & I'd like pastrami for lunch. When would you like me to come?

I've never heard of doing that, what's the purpose??

They mainly used it in cockfighting, so there would not be anything for the roos to grab, & less blood. They adopted it to show some breeds of chickens. It will also help ward off frostbite, since there isn't anything to get frostbit.
