No But I have heard the name.
I know Mark Massey. He is a big time OEG guy that travels to all of the national shows. He lives behind me across the pond and through the blackjacks.
I could get some nice OEG's from him for free, if it weren't for those Grizzly Bear/Timberwolf crosses he keeps as guard dogs.

Do you brew it yourself?

This is this closest I could find to a devil.

Come on Monty take one for the team!

Stimp glad to hear of another person with an addiction! Welcome to the club.

I would use them gersery giants and probably a RIR on that big red chicken thing...don't really know that much about the big birds so not sure how their colors go...

I have 1 Blue JG Roo and 2 Black JG Hens about 7 months old and they are already bigger than my RIR Roo.. and I drink Dir sams cola

like the well is running dry

Edited to Add my 2 cents ........ I would start with the biggest RIR Roo that I could find and a Black JG Hen.. That should give you some dark Red Chicks
also some black

yep forgot i got some eggs from her last year and they are just beauties. I have one Giant left from the hatch it is a lav also. what I call lav, someone else might call it a blue or a self blue would that be right? Then i got some off an auction online and got 3 to hatch, one is the lav then the other 2 are blue/black.

A guy named 'Dave' is my connection. He works at Wal-Mart. You can't miss him, he wears a blue vest that says "Dave" on the front. In retrospect, it's really not much of a disguise.

What are those great big birds that kinda look like an Auracana with the feathered feet and fuzzy faces and stuff...them are some big birds...malays are tall but not much size to them...I wouldn't think brahma would be good...cornish would give you width but not height...I have seen some huge orps...I am substituting Ag now...they are judging from a video! I think it is the same video they used when I was in high school (but I didn't take ag!)

 

[chickensandmore]

I guess you could use The Orloff Hens mine already have some red in them and they are much bigger than my RIR hens and stand the same as my JG hen but not as heavy..

No Ag

the shame of it all.. My best class in order Shop, Ag, PE and home economics for the girls

(I mean so I could learn to cook just in case I couldn't get a girl) always thinking out of the box.

Tks. Lynn. Farm was between Pawnee and Stillwater and a long time ago.

Yes I do have a batch of chicks, sorry no pics., no camera; yet. Have 20 and are about 3 1/2 to 4 wks. old. Not sure what I have but do know that 2 are EE's and the others may be also. 6 are chipmonks but look just like a Welsummer chick, 6 that could be EE's or Production Reds's, 5 are black with a white patch on top of their heads and are silver lacied, don't have a clue yet. And 1 big white, probably a EE.
Now live 25 miles East of Springfield on my step-brothers farm where we raise beef cattle on 360+ acres. Very little wisdom from this old Roo, haven't been around chickens since 1958. Guessing you live somehwere around Morrison.
Sorry for running on, and thanks to all for the welcome.
