Update Nov. 11 -- Not POL, at least 2 are now Laying.

From Ideal Hatchery's May 19th hatch so 18-weeks at the time I post this.

1 French Cuckoo Marans -- Fricasee
2 Dominiques -- Classic and Everroast
2 Large-Fowl Silver-Laced Cochins -- Nugget and Kebob

All healthy and without any issues. All trained to use a horizontal nipple waterer.

$15 each. $10 off if you take all 5, OR I'll throw in a 4-nipple waterer for the full price.

Here's their growth/development thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/introducing-the-ideal-dozen.1469451/

Where at in North Carolina?

Carthage.

Wait a minute, I remember you, I got a nice SLW from you once. How have you folks been doing?

Yes! I thought your name sounded familiar. I've finally got my big coop finished.

The SLW I kept lays pretty pinkish eggs regularly. I hope yours lays well.

Love to have a Dominique rooster.I'm in WV .They're hard to find here.(Bluefield, WV)

Mine are both pullets.
