Went to the auction Friday and unloaded 50+ guineas, 150+ chicken chicks, six laying hens, six ducks, one Royal Palm turkey, two mature IB hens, and did I say 50+ guineas? It is SO peaceful here today, I should have given those **** guineas away a lot sooner! e I did bring one hen home, the only Black Shoulder hen I have ever seen there, and it was a steal. The owner did not know anything about the parentage of the hen and I am not that versed in them so I am asking if you see anything in her that would tell me which breeding pen I may want to put her into. She is more blackish on her back than my yearling BS hens that are more brownish. Rocky, the IBBSWE checking out the new talent. Also wanting to know if this is a pretty standard looking BS wing.
I was pleasantly surprised how tame she is. I can walk right up to her, even get face to face with her on the perch without her freaking out. She is a really nice bird. She also eats out of my hand.
I know there's chickens in the picts too, but he needed friends, this was our first pea chick to hatch this year
and here's some of our 3 year old peas
