I can ship anytime, as I have a lot of chicks!

Some hatching today for shipment tomorrow if the auction closes before 3pm. Or on Wednesday. Or, can wait until next week. I'm flexible.

Ok, I bought eggs from rockinpaints last spring. I think, but I could be wrong, that they had Hinkjc, plus someone elses lines. Then I bought pullets from a local person who got her start from hinkjc, and then introduced an english pullet into the mix. So those pullets are 1/4 English and are F2. So, my chicks, could be, since the rooster I'm using is from the Rockinpaints, could be 1/8 English, or just all American breeds. Its confusinng.

What I like about them? They will eventually mix together and the little English will be added for body & more fluff. If you are strick American Orps, then these are probably not for you.
If you like a little English influence, then you will like them.
