Sooo Im getting some eggs from boggy bottom bantams next week!!! My dutch has been super broody and I don't have any breeding pairs together, so I bought some eggs! Wish us luck! First time broody and Shipped eggs is a mixture for disaster but its worth a try! All i want is one cockerel! Is that SO hard to ask for?

Actually when my husband and I found out that a breeder had sold a bunch of silver phoenixes to our local feed store we bought four. We did this hoping to get at least one boy! And this was after trying to avoid male chickens.

We had one die from cocci as a chick and ended up with a pullet and 2 cockerels. We call them our mafia chickens out in the coop. Even gave them mafia-ish names. The two boys get along since they've been raised together and now that they're getting pretty tails they're becoming quite the sight!
