I was gonna say that.

Marq - my girls have just started laying. I've no splits but will when I cross the blacks with the lav hens. I'm not sure I'll breed the lav roo to a lav hen unless someone wants pure lav chicks. Then maybe not even then. I offered Renee to come down and have a look but she's not talking so I'll guess I'll have to make that decision myself.

I hatched mine in March, when did you get yours? I am going to breed the lavs together first, then I will leave the black split in for a while. I love seeing those 5 lavs together, the color is beautiful.

I should get a couple of lav chicks from you to mix with mine. I'm not starting up my incubator until the middle of Sept, hopefully they will be laying by then.
I'm getting 2 doz silkie eggs from CJexotics mid september to replace eggs that didn't hatch. I'm picking them up instead of having her ship them like last time...hope I get a better hatch.

Rancher, I am looking for a couple of Lav hens/Pullets if you are interested in selling one or two, or pure hatching eggs. (or bartering) I am also going to be onl the look out for Black English orps to breed into my lav's. love the english body types.

That is My Young Lavender Orpington Roo, "Rhett" I have Lav orp and black splits, cornish game birds, a pair of bantam polish, one of which is frizzled. and some other randomness running around my yard. I'm starting a lavender project of my own with what I have. ANd I have 1 doz modern game eggs in the bator and another doz cornish game under a hen. I just can't stop.

I've just started with lavs and won't have anything until spring at the most. Probably late spring , since mine aren't even laying yet or just starting. Also I only have 4 hens and the roo plus the two blk roos. The blk roos are much nicer than the lav roo so I'll be working with them.
