First Run of Cornish Cross Meat Birds and Super Excited!

[JRNash]

You have to figure labor is cheap. What started me looking was I noticed an egg turner motor,chain and limit switches on different sites here in the US selling for 50$ to 150$. The EXACT SAME COMPONENTS sells on alibaba for 14$ plus 9$ S&H

And the kicker is either the US or China is using the SAME picture. I believe US suppliers are buying low and then pencil whipping the markup.
I figure if the egg turner works,I can rebuild the other components if its cheap enough in the beginning.

My email is blowing up. This is going to be interesting.

Just plugged the last incubator up...

Does anyone have any experience with how cross breeding effects Leghorn egg production?

I crossed my Leghorns to a spitzhauben and got spitzhorn babie.

the girls are smaller but lay religiously a good size egg. By small I mean maybe 4nuggets worth of meat each.

Thanks Chicken girl, size isn't an issue I hate the idea of decreasing their rate of lay.

 

[JRNash]

I'm constantly amazed at how a bird as small as they are,can lay eggs as big as they do!

I'd bet she has seen it. They just hold back to drop you into the stuff when they get a whole bag full.

I'm glad I don't have to listen to any BS if I want to buy something. On the other hand, it might be good to have someone to bounce ideas off of....Haahhhhhhhaaaa!!!!
