Jersey Giants thread for pictures and discussion

[feathers4fun]

wynette I saw blues at Ohio national from Oregon, can't recall name who they belonged to. I will need to look at my past PM list to find her. Feathers4fun came to ohio.The giants I ordered have no yellow feet and two are the same size or smaller,as my barred rocks. Giant??? not to me since other two are smaller than my EEs. %&$#&&!! do I want show quality no but I don't want these again.

Yes, I came to Ohio, from Oregon, and had Blues there to sell.

Does anyone find cardiac problems with these Jerseys? I see a purple comb here and there, and just lost one.

2 hatched now - both dark but still wet so I can't tell black or blue yet.

Congratulations! I can see how this hatching thing could become a habit

What mixes have people tried with good results? Anyone ever tried mixing/crossing a JG with a buff Orpington? Langshan? Australorp? Redstar?

 

[rowenna22]

Quick question. I just got a JG from the feed store, but she has a white spot under her chin. Is this normal for them?

Some pics of my BBS six weeks olds from my flock. A few of these are also JG x ameraucana -- giant Easter eggers that I was playing with.

I only kept two blacks, one pullet and one cockerel. Have 10 very nice blues and 3 splash that are JGs.
