New Mexico

[Laura lim]

Been busy with a great hatch of shipped and local eggs. 30 chicks of Welsummer, Marans, Cuckoo Bluebar and a couple of EE/Welsummer crosses (so, I guess, Olive Eggers). Just waiting for a bit of grow out to see who stays and who goes to the swap. I know there will be a surplus of Welsummers.

at is awesome. I'm working on a small batch of easter egger cochin cross eggs.

Congrats on the great hatches! Let me know what you have got extra before you head to the swap.

Sure will. Might even save me a trip.
Pullets or cockerels?

Any one in the abq area that wants a beautiful sea bright Bantum roo.

OMG, There's actually people in the New Mexico thread! I usually just hear crickets when I wander into "New Mexico"

I know it's been so quiet here. I think most people are on Facebook pages

Love your user name! Yeah, sometimes it's really quiet and I guess people are on the NM Poultry Swaps Facebook page. Well that is a good source too.

I've got some blue Barnevelders that are finally looking blue. Very happy about that. And my Svart Hona are doing great, I have two pullets that I hope will start laying soon, but.... it IS getting into winter now, so who knows. In the meantime my Svart hen is laying really well. I like the breed very much! Can't wait for my Barnies to go online and start laying.

YeH I only have one laying hen to. She is a fravolles. I have 8 others that I'm doing the waiting game with. I was really hoping they would stArt before the cold season. Well keep our fingers crossed though. It's still been t shirt weather out here in alb. So maybe.

Hi everyone - gorgeous day today and the cranes are landing now at the neighbor's. So fun to watch.

Sure will. Might even save me a trip.

I only need pullets, since probably half of what I have growing out here are cockerels. Once I cull some, I think I'll have only 1 hen that doesn't lay blue/green, so a few Welsummers would be great. My roo is a BW Amaraucana, so future olive eggers are in the plans.
