A guy in Michigan selling f1 eggs, but with really good feedback. I have seen them listed almost constantly the last few months- there are still lav orps and BCMs that are more expensive than the lemon cuckoos are going for now. Crazy how they were $700 a dozen last summer, and now....

Well I have Lavs from Hinkjc. Hers were worth the expense and drive. I do like the lemons but also have my eye on Reds from Green fire.

The best Double Barred Lemon Cuckoo Orpington's come from Classy Poultry. The roosters are very big and gentle with great lemon coloring. The hens lay very well and are large birds also. They are sold out for 2011, but are taking orders for 2012 at [email protected]

I call mine Buff Barred Rockshires. These are F2 culls from my project.
