Faverolles Thread

[Summer Rose]

Hi, I got to thinking "what difference would it make?" I first found them on Craig's List. The lady's name is Christy and the number is
828-696-3623. They are really nice people and have lots of the SF's. I love mine, just 6 weeks old. Hope that helps

Hi, well wrote this and it went off before I clicked Submit so hope it is not posted twice.
I could not reach the lady today but no matter I first found them on Craig List so her
name is Christy and the phone # 828-696-3623 They really did have a lot of SF's all sizes
and ages. Quite sure I will want to buy more in the Spring because I didn't buy a Roo.
I just posted pix of the Hen house I converted from an old shed, check it out if you have time..kind of proud of
doing it myself! I became a widow 3 years ago and everything is a challenge..

To my amazement, the roo started crowing 3 days ago at the tender age of 9 wks and is already challenging my position. Floors me.

Wait...challenging your position how exactly?? Faverolles males should be as sweet and docile as the girls...

Yeah hope that the male isn't acting aggressively towards you already. That isn't good you should never keep a male that is aggressive at all as it goes against the breeds characteristics.

Absolutely. I have had the occasional male with an attitiude problem, but that's usually solved by slow cooking.

I am getting the three males I hatched from Peter back on Tuesday! The girl who was keeping them for me sent me a picture and they look good. Nice dark wing patches. They are still getting there final coloring but hopefully at least one or two of them will be good for breeding. I will post pictures when I get them back on Tuesday. I am hopefully getting 4 or so pullets from Dick's line later in the month and then will be crossing and hatching some this spring hopefully.
