I KNOW FOR SURE I HAVE 1 BRAHMA AND THEN I HAVE 4 WHITE ONES. HUBBY TOLD ME THEY WERE LEGHORN. BUT THERE NOT THEY LAY BROWN EGGS. I LOVE THEM ANYWAY I DON'T CARE WHAT BREED THEY ARE.
Right now I have 11 laying hens (BR, black & brown leghorns, minorcas), 7 Salmon faverolle chicks (so sweet!) and three 4-week old Silkies that my kids are babying. We are due for more chicks at the end of this month, and I am attempting to hatch some (delaware, welsummer, buff brahma) in our incubator (cross your fingers for me!)
hey yall, I had to get in on this even though I'm stuck in OH for a while.
originally a yat now on the northshore.
It seems I have many peeps to hang with in the area when I visit home!
I'm in New Orleans. Don't have any chickens yet, but as soon as I close on the house (6/16) and get it renovated, and get the coop built, and borrow a goat to clear out the backyard and start to put in a garden... THEN I will have 4 hens. My boyfriend has requested a polish or silkie ("that one with the 'fro"), and I'm after RIR's and EEs, I think. Would like an Orpington, but I fear our climate is just too hot for such a fat-assed bird. Let me know if I'm mistaken, eh?
Currently I'm just reading a lot and learning as much as I can, but soon I'm hoping to get together with a couple of y'all who breed and pick up a few chicks or pullets (incubation is beyond my meager skills at present).
