Beaglady shoot me a pm if you are still interested in ordering from Sandhill, even though they do not have the breeds I want this year, I do see some assortments I would be interested in...

which brings me to,,,,the Buckeye breed,,,,,as many know that is one of my breeds,,,,, I see sandhill has a bantam buckeye,,,I have only seen these in pics and they look more stocky like a cornish would,,,,has any one seen these birds in person up close to say if they look like their LF counterpart..

would be interested in a dorking assortment, can someone tell me more about the temperment of this breed...

I am asking because so far everytime I try to go with an older breed I have problems, usually with them getting mean or sometimes it is just fertility problems, but always something,,,,and I get to where I believe some breeds are endangered for a reason..


did I tell you that my prized wishard bronze turkey is on the dinner menu,,,,,I do not like turkey on my back...

My theory on birds: "You bite me, I bite back." The only exception to this rule is a broody protecting her babies/eggs. (I'm a momma, so I can relate to her defensiveness.)

My LF buckeyes are the funniest(most personality) of the breeds that I have, they are very brave but not mean. As soon as you go into the run they come running like a dog and I think they would climb up you leg if they could. If you are holding feed in a jug or etc. they will try and jump up to get it. I usually have to push them out of the way to maneauver around in their run. They do not like to in a coop and prefer to be on top of it. When we got our first freeze snap, I put them in our unheated garage in large rabbit pens to keep them out of the cold and wind, but did they put up a racket being inside and separate from each other.

This is absolutely the funniest picture I have seen in a while! Thanks for posting it!

Blarney, hope your handsome son is recovering well.

Sorry for all of those who lost some chooks. It has been a super tough winter so far and we are not out of the woods yet! :hugs:fl

I caught up again today of all those posts. Over 30 pages! Holy cow! Thanks everybody, it gives me something to do while while playing secretary at DH's business on Saturday.

Tonight I am going to drool- er... carefully study my library of seed catalogues tonight. I saw purple carrots this year that are purple all the way through! I have to try them! :drool

It just dawned on me that my chicks are coming the week of Feb. 24, which is about 3 weeks away! :weee :ya:ya. What am I going to do? I feel so unprepared! So excited! Gotta do some studying tonight again.....
