Well since I did not know ideal had some I had already sent off payment to sandhill for some and since I found this post I have a shipping date of 3/28/18 for 5 Iowa blues and 5 rare breed special.
So we shall see what I get.I hope some hens go broody by then I usually have 1-5 broodies at a time once the weather warms up so they should start nesting soon.

Where are you Hickory Creek? I think it would be brilliant to breed the two lines I’m sure that what others have done but I’ve never hatched chicks

I didn’t know you were ordering from Ideal too! It will be very interesting to see the differences if you can get the Sandhill ones as well.

I will keep you up to date on the sandhill ones if or when I get them.
