Judging starts at 9am again, right?
So how about we meet at 11am. That gives everyone time to get the birds cooped in & sell or buy a few before they're all gone. Sound good?

sounds good to me. 11 am in front of big rooster by building entrance

Hey Bairo, you sure don't have many chickens. Need more? LOL

I think I'll try to get out to this one again... just such a long drive! I need some BLRW pullets and didn't see many the last time... I have only 22 chickens... GEEZ!

Hey stang, i have a blue version of that black cochin mix you got from me. Blue with coppery red on her neck/chest. Super pretty. Do you still have the girls?

I will be at the november show! With something.......if nothing else, to sell babies. I'm keeping a few hens but planning on doing some big ol butt trims so I can breed them instead.

Of course! I swear, the broodiness is something only you have... Mine both went broody for like one month and that was it... hahaha! I wanted them to go broody so then I didn't have to use my incubator and brooder to hatch me some langshans and never happened, they're just laying eggs

Just to throw it out there---do any of you guys have/know of anywhere I can get the breeds in my signature around here? I have been dying to get some polish, I guess anything out of the ordinary.

I have a super broody mottled cochin for sale....you can "make" her broody, just put her in a brooder with a bunch of eggs and she will go broody withina few days to a week. Sure you don't want to buy her? LOL


I think its just something in the water here. I had a production red go broody twice now.....my leghornX girls all would go broody regularly. Plus the usual suspects. Forgot to collect eggs for a few days, that seems to trigger them. I'm bad about collecting eggs daily here

I have a Black SL hen and RIR hen that constantly go broody here, which is wonderful. I haven't had an hatches though, I think I get too impatient or worry over them too much. Thus why I'm getting an incubator. Too AR for much anything else. My G Laced cochin still refuses and I would have pegged her for the broody one.
