She is also a good, healthy pooper!!!

As with most things in regard to chickens, better OUT than IN, LOL!​

Hehehehe. Shelby is a mess. She will settle in and start laying for you Beth. Her eggs are beautiful colored. She can be very vocal I learned on my weekend visit.

She laid an egg the day Beth came to get her so Beth got to see her egg color, though it was a tad lighter than her usual (still very dark)and it was super speckled that day. Shelby is such a beautiful girl, I miss her pretty face, but she was making me and Rex crazy.

That is so weird. I can see them. Try this....

Heard back back from the cochin people. Asking $90 for the blue mottled trio and $60 for the black mottled reverse trio (2 boys, 1 girl).


90 is too steep for me but I am still gonna get better pix and then see if I can haggle a bit IF they are worth it.


I have plenty of really nice black mottleds so no need for those. And definitely not at that price.

That is a bit high, seems to me, but what do I know?

It is indeed high. You can get single birds from Jamie Matts for $45 each....probably a pair for less than $90....but his are top of the line. Same with Judy Gantt. I've asked whose lines these birds are.....they need to have big names behind them for that price. I would probably pay $60-$70 for a really nice trio from unnamed lines.
