I hope you get some.

The euskaloiloas forum site is down. Have they disbanded?
 
Yes they are Trooper Man, but they are also good layers of large to XL eggs. Extra rooster are great for the table.

The BEST part of EO's is their amazing friendly personality's

Well it's been a hard long winter in my area. It's not over yet but we have had a few milder days. Here is my one group of EO's on their first day out in awhile. My poor rooster got his comb frostbitten

I like the Basques too. But I am beginning to sour on the personality of the cockerels. The hens are great, very friendly and literally under your feet quite often.

I have a back up cockerel that has decided that after he deposed a flock lead Swedish flower hen cockerel, he wants to take me on. I have tried to back him down but cannot trust him. So he is headed toward freezer camp - tomorrow!

My main Basque cockerel has not attacked yet but wants to do the dance around me and pace me as I walk along the fence. He is beautiful but very assertive and abusive of other cockerels.
