Jeff, I haven't noticed any ruffled feathers. Not mine anyways. I am not that sensitive. I was just sharing thoughts, and asking others. Sometimes, I should think things through before I speak. I am not a good communicator. There is usually more in my head, than comes out my mouth. I wouldn't take me too seriously.
I have read through the Good Shepard thread. I have just read something contrary to the no new blood being added. I am wondering which is correct. I really like the birds regardless of the details of their past. I am not concerned with which is right.
I merely wonder what my limitations are. As I build pens etc. I wonder how many is enough. In the case of the New Hampshires, I have set up a house and yard plus three breeding houses with runs. I am planning three families, each consisting of eight hens and a cock. I wonder how far that will take me. I don't necessarily need an answer, because I think I will see the need when/if it comes.
