Hi Tom Turkey
I am glad to hear your chicks are all doing great.

You have a very nice assortment of color in your OEGB's. I would like to see more pictures as they feather out.

Ok, I'll put some up when get more feathers. I have figured out some that i have, I have 7 pearl, 2 buff, 1 black tailed buff, and 1 white. That's all i know as of now. They sent a great assortment. I raised 15 OEGB that I bought from a guy that bought them from Ideal last year, They were pretty nice birds they were a little on the bigger side but not to much, but there color was nice for hatchery bird's.

Hi
I plan to move my La Fleche chicks to their heated outside brooder this weekend. All the chicks are still very healthy and active. I will post one more picture of them before I move them.

Hi KatyTheChickenLady

I am placing a heated brooder in their future breeding pen that is inclosed and I will keep the temperature around 90 degrees dropping 5 degrees each week.

oh lol, I have the same thing, all I saw was "outside" silly me.
I keep mine indoors for two weeks though, just to check weights and watch closely for pasty butt etc. the last three days are not aromatic . . . lol.
