Isa's Homestead Happenings and Hangout

[Brooks_]

Guess what, everybody!

You're PG?

 

[Aunt Angus]

You're PG?

I wish. But that time has passed...

No.

It's FRIDAY!

 

[Aunt Angus]

you got some "bad" feed to test?

That, too.

 

[Isadora]

I wish. But that time has passed...

No.

It's FRIDAY!

I really want to add to the flock but I need breed suggestions.

• Light in color (not buff)
• Single comb
• Clean legs
• Docile/calm
• White eggs

I hesitate to suggest because they're so ugly but what about Polish? They have white, blue, and silver for lighter colors without it being buff.

That, too.

What kind of turnaround time could we expect for the results? And we will be tagged, right?

They're not a single comb though

He'll stay where the girls are. His whole existence is those girls.

But I'm going to give advice. I usually say to do whatever you think is best. But I'm going to break my own rule. Don't get the rooster. It will absolutely change your relationship with your chickens. Don't get me wrong: roosters are great. They are helpful for watching for predators. And they're gorgeous. And the good ones have wonderful personalities. But he will supplant you as the flock leader. If your birds were livestock for meat and eggs, I'd say go for it! But you sound like me. My birds are pets. Things changed a lot when I ended up with an accidental rooster.

My two cents.

But I mean, I wouldn't exactly call them pets...

I kinda like them, but I am looking for real chickens.
