My Silver-Laced Australorp(ish) Project

[SETX Farm]

Were you ever successful? If so would love to see a picture! Australorps are my favorite chicken breed for south east Texas.

@SETX Farm, this member hasn't been on BYC in several months, so you're not likely to get an answer.

I sure wish you'd come back, @3KillerBs. I miss you.

Well, I see that she was on BYC in April!

I hope to see where/if she posted. I'd love to know how she's doing.

I'm so happy to see we're talking about where 3KillersB's went, the forum isn't the same without her!
But even before the new business, she seemed to have a lot on her plate.
Honestly, I don't know how some people keep up with such demanding schedules. If I do one extra chore as the frosting on a typical day, I end up lounging around all evening unable to feed and hydrate myself.

Watching with interest. My Cochins are the same way about heat, especially the large fowl. I always joke that they have a melting point of 80° F because they like to spread out on the ground trying to cool off when it's any warmer than that.

I was reading some interesting stuff about breeding for blue on a breeder forum and thought of you, but I wasn't sure if you're going to keep the Blue going or not?

@DarJones did quite a bit of work with Wyandottes and knows a lot about genetics!

Can you share the breeder forum?
