Off for now.

I have some of her LF Dominiques.

How are they as far as laying goes?

They are just getting started with laying. So far though they have been doing well.

Hmm so maybe after I get rid of my excess cockerels I'll have room for a few more Doms ... Can you actually tell cockerels and pullets apart right away?

Yes. There were some that were questionable but others I could definitely tell male and female apart.

K, thanks. I'm going to take measurements on the coop tomorrow to see if I have room for a few more.

I really like my Doms and they are absolutely gorgeous birds. This is Pickles, I hatched him (and about 13 others) from the place you were looking at.

I think I posted here not long ago about the previous owner of our first house. He'd hung new gutters in the front, but didn't slope them toward one end so they'd drain. When debris clogged them, rather than rehanging them properly he drilled holes in the bottom!

Mine are 16 years old now and making their own holes.

Wow, he is gorgeous!! I got two Doms (10 weeks now) from Ideal, but they aren't looking that good - I don't mean they're not healthy, but I have a feeling they aren't going to be what I was hoping. So, hopefully, I'll have room for a couple from that place ...

Pickles!

Wow! Sea horses are amazing!
Are they hard to keep alive once the salt water tank is set up?

A little they like cooler temps. They like company one by itself will die. Wife does all the raising of them. I'm in charge of equipment maintenance although she does quite a bit of that herself.

Must get the tank raised ones. Sea horses brought in from the ocean and sold in pet stores are very hard to keep alive.

Sounds like a great team and a lot of fun!

Ideally it should be illegal to buy wild caught ones (imho)
