From a friend who got them from Greenfire.

: Have you raised them before?

No -but I know 2 people who have.
They are tall birds and are meant to taste good.

 

[Phage]

And would you call it Justin??

Only if it was a mean rooster.

LOL

Yea I've looked into them before. Beautiful birds and would love to see how one tastes sometime. Would be neat to have some really tall chickens running around too.

Has anyone seen the PBS special documentary, "John Denver: Country Boy"?
I just finished watching it.

@MotorcycleChick

Did ANY of the eggs I sent ever hatch? We're they too scrambled?

No, dear. None made it.

@MotorcycleChick Thanks for checking. I am fine just too busy. For the last nine days I had my friend's chores plus mine. I am also spending any free moment at work on my phone dealing with details for my big trip to the Tetons and Yellowstone next summer. Then today I worked fourteen hours. I will try to catch up soon. I hope you are well.

I have a big praise the Lord! After two months of looking I felt prompted to check Craigslist again yesterday and low and behold there was a hay buggy in Carthage which is just a town over instead of the closest I had seen at four hours away, and since the winch needs replaced it was half what I expected to pay e
I will do a red neck fix for now and use a come along

@ChickenCanoe I truely am interested in one of your cockerels, but not this time of year. I have no good set up for winter quarantine, and no desire for extra chores in the cold. I hope you have a great trip to your brother's house.

Greetings to everyone else. I have to get the fire going since I don't have heat on, and grab something to eat before crashing. Back to work at 5:30 At least I have a job.

I love this - where did you find it?




- Ant Farm

I wish I could find the post again. I ordered a coffee cup from these folks that had a kitten looking down at a tiger. I should get it next week. They offered a discount if you bought 2 - I looked at their store, and never saw this - if I had, I would have bought it.

If I see another post on facebook, I'll grab the link - sorry!

That's a shame. I hate to butcher all those nice boys. I think I'll be butchering my second oldest rooster. I'm pretty sure he's throwing a couple chipmunks out of every 30 chicks.
If I do that, my 3 1/2 year old that came back to me this summer and an unrelated rooster will be my primaries and then I'll have to choose 3 more to keep from 7 others and then there's still 4 three month old cockerels.

This is the old boy when he was molting and in quarantine.


A bunch of young boys roosting together. There were 11 in there.




Here they are foraging together.




I have 4 left in that pen. They hatched 5-6 months ago.
