Most of the parent birds are.. but I am seeing chicks hatch without.. so it could go either way

How about those Delawares, did they ever start laying or are we having chicken in a crock pot?

 

[shellyga]

Delawares + molting = about 2 eggs a week

Those suckers have been freeloading all summer. Make a chicken pot pie, I'll be right over:-D

Okay.. I know they aren't large fowl.. but I picked up some Silver Sebright eggs from a friend last night.. I know they are good, fertile eggs from quality stock. I can also offer 6+ Barred Rock

So newly edited offer is:
8+ Buff Orpington
6+ Barred Rock

or.. silver sebrights (understanding they are not large fowl)
Sorry to have stalled the thread

So the BCM are no longer a part of the offer?? Guess I missed them.

Don't sweat it, Shelley, all the egg chains are stalled. Bantams are fine as long as there is a LF option Deb

Mine on the BCM.

Shelly... I'll happily wait for the BCM's

Offer:
6+ White French Production Muscovy Hatching Eggs

French improved breeding stock that will produce birds which are 50% larger than our American Muscovy. Drakes can weigh 12 pounds in 12 weeks. My typical dressed weights: Hens 3.5 to 4.5 lb. and drakes 6 to 8 lb. (had 2 dress at 9.5 lbs last spring). High in meat-to-bone ratio, with less weight loss after cooking than Pekin ducks. Low in fat with a wonderful veal-like texture and flavor.

Muscovy are quackless and the hens are the best broodies you'll ever meet. A handful of these lovely ladies and you'll never need your incubator again! (Unless you're like me and have 200+ eggs in the 'bator)

I love love love them! They're the absolute friendliest poultry in the barnyard! They enjoy their treats, love to be petted, and meet me at the gate every day waggin' their tails the whole way.

"Big Boy" Muscovy Drake (15+ lbs)
