Hello Cammy,
and the Delaware thread! You've found one of the better sources for information and advice in the care and keeping of not just Delaware chickens, but all breeds as well.
Delawares are an awesome breed! Just ask anyone here!
We'll regale you for days on end with stories and pictures of our beloved flocks.
But be forewarned.
There is a little thing we call "Delaware Mind Control". Whatever you do, DO NOT look a Delaware chick in the eyes! It will be all over for you in an instant!
They latch on to your mind and you'll soon find yourself doing all sorts of strange things. Like building bigger and better coops! And going to shows in search of that perfect hen or rooster to help improve your breeding program. And buying every newfangled treat you can lay your hands on, just to appease the almighty Delaware!!!
Is it worth it? Oh yeah!! It's worth it!! Every cent and every second! It's WORTH IT!!!
And if you have any questions, this is a great place to get a lot of them answered! Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!
Oh I already know about this mind control. I was flipping through a book of poultry breeds and the moment I saw the Delaware it was a done deal. Originally my plan was to have a flock of excellent egg layers and a flock of excellent meat birds. Well that went out the window.
Right now we aren't in the place to have chickens. We were hit pretty hard by the economy and are currently renting part of a house. I don't really know where I was going with this post. My brain kinda went blank...
Thats so sad
