This is the forum they made for the upcoming 2017 Chickenstock. It is a _much_ shorter forum than here and quicker to catch up on ;-)

Sorry, I thought I linked you the thread last time you asked! Here it is: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1138203/ny-chicken-lover-chickenstock-17

It's a meet up this thread has each year. We get together, have a potluck, have a raffle, and buy and sell from each other.

Edit: I went back and looked and it looks like I did answer you, so I promise we weren't ignoring you

I've got babies! e

I got 2 brahma, 1 EE, 2 barred rocks, and 5 i-don't-know-whats. They are pale yellow with small black dots - one on the head, each wing, and either side of the tail. The list given was Brahma, Ameraucana (was def EE tho), RIR, and Barred Rock. Any ideas?

Also, with the warm weather, we tapped 6 trees, and got 11 gallons of sap already. 

And a question: wood ash is a recommended ingredient in a dust bath. Most of my ash comes from locust trees. Is it safe to use or do I need to make it with something else?

Congrats! Did they come in from a hatchery or are these the ones you hatched? Sounds like they are just mixes if they're from the ones you hatched, since I know you said mixes were possible

Also, your barred rocks are possibly black sex links, since I know that was on your possibilities mix too. If so, those with a head spot are males.

Crowing has returned to my farm. Thank you, @horsekeeper!
My 18 hens have been trying to break in to the quarantine to check them out. Lol.
