Hello from Nova Scotia, Canada

[goldenyolk]

Hi guys and girls, I have been a watcher of this site for some time now and decided today to join ya's. I am from Nova Scotia, I have many different breeds for chickens all of which are Heritage Breeds.

Also, wondering if there is anyone from Canada that is willing to sell/swap fertile eggs.

Thanks for all the great info soooo far everyone this is a great forum.

That's hilarious because I'm buff crazy too. I LOVE my buff orpingtons. They are just 13 weeks old but I'm so pleased with them. They were my first standard sized chickens. Prior to them, I had Silkies for over a year and am so happy with them. I tried to get bantam buff brahmas but didn't have any luck finding them and I also want Buff Cochins!!! For now, my buffs are one buff Silkie hen and three young Buff chicks that are a few weeks old, hoping they are pullets. I also have one buff frizzle which is adorable. When I bought that one, the lady had four of the cutest buff silkie/cochin crosses that were from her frizzle breeding project but they didn't frizzle. They are so pretty so I bought them too. I also have two white silkies, one blue, one grey, one splash rooster and two hens sitting on five eggs each. In addition, on June 1, I got some silver laced Wyandottes, 4 australorps, 1 speckled sussex pullet and three that were supposed to be speckled sussex but the breeder must have sent me something else by mistake. I'm not sure but I think I have a Rhode Island pair, and I have the prettiest little pullet that I totally can't identify yet, although I think it is a purebred. I still would like some Buff Brahma bantams and Buff Cochins. If you ever want to trade for some Rhode Island reds, Wyandottes or Buff Orpington roosters. Let me know. I love my roosters but, of course, I'm only planning to keep one, so have five extra. They are lovely. I think two or three of my Australorps are going to be roosters, so I'm a little disappointed as I wanted at least two hens. I bet I'd love your buff polish. Never seen one in person. So, my wish list still contains purebred Buff Cochins, Buff Brahma bantams, Americaunas, maybe a couple of chanteclers, and I like the dominiques too. I have another friend from Oxford who is just getting into chickens. Maybe we'll have to come for a visit sometime. Let me know if you have anything you want to trade around. hee, hee

Oh yeah....I don't have any black Silkies yet either. Are your Silkies bearded? Are they show quality? Apparently they are planning a poultry show for the Oxford Exhibition for next year.
