Dominique eggs
Nope just gonna raise Dominiques. Theoretically they can already be sexed when they hatch, I'm just not very good at it. I got my eggs from http://www.nantahala-farm.com/chicken-dominique-chicks-sex-link-s.shtml so hopefully these ones will be easier to sex. I'm not as ambitious with my chickens as Sally isSweet, are you gonna creat sex link eggs with those?
Whatever happened to the days when you could auto-sex people by the length of their hair (unless you were watching from behind) ?Nope just gonna raise Dominiques.

You restricting yourself to Dominiques only, or just adding them to what you already raise?Nope just gonna raise Dominiques.

No, I think I would like to try and breed them to sell at some point in the future but I will always have a mixed laying flock.You restricting yourself to Dominiques only, or just adding them to what you already raise?
For some reason, I prefer brown eggs; always have. I've had BR's in the past, but have always had RIR's or RSL's. Only reason I got Jess' BCM is to eventually get a darker brownNo, I think I would like to try and breed them to sell at some point in the future but I will always have a mixed laying flock.

This is going to sound strange, but I'm not big on processing something I've been feeding. I've done it, several times, but I tend to avoid it.Yea I prefer the brown as well or anything but white. But it's gotta be a dual purpose bird. Dominiques lay a brown egg.
I currently don't have a problem doing it. I guess I'm still able to detach myself from them to some aspect. That's not to say I don't feel anything doing it but rather I'm able to get through those feelings and do what I raised them for. Either they are feeding me with there eggs or with there bodies because that is what I raised them for, not as pets but as food being the end game.This is going to sound strange, but I'm not big on processing something I've been feeding.
