Speaking of broody, my Showgirl won't leave the nest box. Can I put a few LF eggs under her?

Of course. Just make sure she can cover em all.

Selling these two 10 week old Swedish Flower Hen pullets. I incubated for the first time and had a horrible experience. I had to help the black one out and she has mildy crooked toes. I sold the incubator...will leave it up to the broody's from now on. Both for $50. Contact [email protected] if you're interested.

they dont eat much

My brother had caught one once and kept it as a pet for awhile. He would feed it wild lizards he had caught and it would eat them live right out of his hand

I'm not a spider fan but I'm the one who told the family not to kill it. I'm just hoping I don't regret that decision in my sleep tonight lol

Anyone interested in an OE hatched from Dana's (Indigo Ridge) eggs? He's a gorgeous boy...trying to sell him on CL but no bites...I'd rather give him to someone on here anyway. He's 9 weeks old and has been fed MM organic soy-free since hatch. I'd love to get $10 for him to help re-coop feed costs...I have a couple other roo's we can't keep either. PM me if interested! here's the CL ad:

You guys should be processing these excess boys, especially a nice, beefy Marans cross like that OE. If you've spent all this time and effort into raising them and feeding them a clean, organic diet, your family should reap the benefit. I have a freezer full of boys, and they are delicious.
