I think your hen is beautiful

Would love to have a frizzle Jaer in my laying flock...any plans to breed her soon? And your dog is cool too

. Any plans to breed him too?

Just kidding...

The dog ate her. So she won't be laying eggs.

Do they charge for the crosses as if for pure stock, or do they just throw them in as extra warmth basically? How do you tell the pure from the crossed in breeds that aren't frizzled? Like, do they use some type of identification?


Thanks and God bless,
Daniel.

It was an autumn special so the price per bird was great and they did put in a list of breeds but there were a few errors and surprises. I ended up with a couple black leghorns and no leghorns on the list, the boy I ate and the girl's been broody twice and hatched a bunch of chicks for me. Overall, considering the price of birds and most breeds were high quality, I was pleased.

One of my Jaer hens has spurs. Have any of you seen that?

I don't think it is extremely rare. I just wondered if it may be more breed specific since it's the first hen I've had with them in a looong time.

Not yet thankfully, I've seen it before in welsummers and cuckoo marans... Anyone know what causes spurs on hens?

It wasn't the chicken death that was funny
