OOOOHHHHHHH! Really!!??? My hubby started a new job a few months ago and has to work Saturdays - but not every one. Whether or not we can attend Chickenstock is up in the air until closer to June

But....... if you do have Welsummer chicks available let me know! I see a ROAD TRIP in our future

I know this thread isnt for selling birds but i HAVE to get rid of them. They are 2 Olive Egger roosters that need a new, loving home that wont kill or eat them. We got them from a breeder here in MI who got them from another breeder as eggs, when they hatched they had crooked toes (this doesnt effect them from being able to walk or run and you wouldnt even be able to tell that there toes are crooked from the way they run around like crazy) and she couldnt keep them so she gave them to me. They do great together but absolutley HATE any other rooster. They would do really good with a flock just for the 2 of them or they would do fine if you kept just the 2 of them together. Ive raised them together since chicks and are NOT even close to being agressive towards humans, just other roosters. The reason i have to get rid of them is because they keep ganging up on my maran rooster and he cant defend himself. They are very, VERY beautiful birds and if you want to see more pics just go to the 8 week buy sell auction. I dont know if they can be used for breeding cuz of there crooked toes but if they can they would make BEAUTIFUL offspring. They are both from a BC Marans hen and a Lavender ameraucana rooster, Pick-up only. PM me if your interested or have any questions!

Thanks. These pics are from today but they are a little ragidy from the weather.

#1 Black rooster (also my favorite)

The other one

I am so glad they are working out well for you! I just love me geese, they have so much personality! I plan on starting up the incubator next month, so if Sam don't have chicks when you need them, just let me know. I can always throw some eggs in for you, as I will be hatching on and off all spring/summer.

EVERYBODY LOOK!!!

Sheldon is on her/his way out of the egg!!! I looked in today to see if I needed to take the clingwrap off and it had peeped through the membrane. I took away more of the egg shell around where the air pocket would've been to give it a hand. (poor baby has been through enough lol)
You can see it's little beak on the left!

Hello, I'm rather new to this sight. I have been raising Welsummers, infact I have two incubators full 42 & 46 eggs. I really enjoy raising them. They are the Whitmore Farm Line. I hope to be getting one more line this year and maybe two.

What age of chickens were you looking for, if I'm not to far away.

Blessings

So I know this is totally not related to chickens, but I had to share it somewhere. A friend of mine ordered a blanket for her daughter's 11th birthday. She loves the color blue so this is what I came up with. I've been stuck in the house for weeks so it's helped to have something to do. Unfortunately I'm about to have my 46th surgery next week and I'll be stuck in the house even longer but won't have the money for another project
