Who is this Dennis?

Dheltzel and my guess is he's about 5 minutes from me. Which is apparently going to be bad news for me in the spring

Me too! Lol

Me too! Lol

I'm guessing this is where the chicken math will come in.

Might have to host a "meet the BYC members party" at my house in the spring, when I have a lot of chicks hatching . . .

@TillyPeeps - 3 of the sexlinked Ameraucanas hatched Monday. 1 black is a definite female, looks like the 2 lavenders are a pair, but the lavenders are easier to sex when they are about 5 or 6 days old.
I can bring them along when I travel to Woodbury (Bedford County?) on August 20th. I can also bring some genetic hackles and cream legbars for @OneMountainAcres if she wants.

I have more due to hatch on the 22nd, and could ship some then. Not sure how many I need to put into a box in August to keep them warm enough, but not too warm. Not a far trip, but shipping in less than ideal temps adds some risk. I would really hate for you to receive a box with dead chicks. That happened to me once years ago and it is traumatic.

Chicken party! I'd come to that.

Our last one was interesting.

Would anyone have use for a silkie cockerel, just starting to crow and mate. Beautiful boy but he doesn't quite have blue ears (they are blue & pink.). He was bred in a pen where they were working on chocolate silkies. If it would increase interest I can throw in the white silkie pullet he is bonded with. The hen has an off-color (not black) beak. Both are about 4 months old.
