I have these coming in , BLUE ANDALUSIANS , ARAUCANA , BLACK AUSTRALORP , CUCKOO MARANS , LIGHT BRAHMAS , PARTRIDGE ROCK , RHODE ISLAND RED , SALMON FAVEROLLES , TURKENS and if I can find the eggs I will add turkeys , ducks and geese.
Are the Faverolles bantam or large fowl? Someone is putting in bantam into the incubator for me this weekend. I have been looking around for eggs, but am having a hard time finding anything in the bantam size for them. I don't see much at all even for the LF variety.
I love the Brahmas. I was very tempted to get some this year, but it will have to wait until next year. I want to get some from Dick Horstman.
Are the Araucana rumpless?
I have RIRs. They came from the hatchery, but they are so sweet. When I go out in the part of the yard that is for them, they follow me around like little puppies!
A cuckoo Maran would be pretty.
I think I know what a partridge Rock is and a Turken, but I'm not sure what a blue Andalusian is. I will look them up to see what they look like.
That is a very nice selection you have started off with.
Please let me know if you have any thoughts were I can find some banty Faverolles, in case I get some chicks in three weeks! I thought to myself if I can't find anything to add in for breeders, I had read they are excellent egg layers, even in the winter, so at least we would have eggs if I got very many pullets.
Oh, is there any way to sex them when they are young?
I see you use a egg carton to hatch them out, is this your first time in doing so? How's it working for you?
