Hello from rural VA!

[Carcajou]

Welcome to BYC

 

[FoggyMountain]

Thanks! We had leghorns in the past and liked them alot. They were a little flighty but not bad. I had trouble selling the white eggs tho.. anyone else have that problem?

If you want really good egg layers, try looking at the Leghorns! They have a reputation on being mean.. but mine isn't! Daffodil (The Leghorn) gives me HUGE white eggs every day! Rhode Island Reds also give you some nice color . I sell eggs, and I have a bunch of different breeds. My mom and I rescue chickens, so a few are not meant for egg laying. I sell my eggs for $3.00. Well... welcome to BYC and hopefully you'll post pictures soon!!!

Some people have this idea that brown eggs taste better. I believe the Queen of England is to blame. My egg customers took what they got without complaining though.

from California, I've never sold eggs or chicks, sorry can't give you advice on those subjects.

Greetings, almost neighbor! Just checking in to see how the move is going. Have you started on your coop yet or is one already on the new place? Hope the weather continues to cooperate for you. Drop a line when you get a chance. Lori

Always happy to see someone else in VA joining BYC!! I'm in Dinwiddie.
Have you gotten any birds yet? If not, there is a big swap meet in May near Ashland. Good place to see lots of birds and talk with folks about what they like or don't like about their birds.
