Welcome! Hope you find your ladies! i know there is atleast one other person in the Bastrop area on our thread, hopefully she can help!

at least he's gone now...

Yes, you're right. That is something to be thankful for.

Well this was a great day and an awful day at the same time. My feather leg bantams from Ideal came this morning (expected them yesterday) so that made me happy. But then one of my sweet ladies got killed by a dog.

I honestly can't make up my mind whether to giggle and coo at the chicks or cry for my poor australorpe girl. And one of my sweetest ones too.

Aww, honey I'm so sorry! I've been going through the same ordeal..I know just how you feel. Hugs to you

On the subject of new chicks. Any of you have experience with a chick who just seems plain evil? I don't know what to do with this one she keeps grabbing all the others and dragging them around by their eyelids! She tore one of their eyelids a little and I have her in a separate little box for now, but hate for him/her to be alone all the time.

They are usually the roosters! LOL There is always a chick in the bunch that goes around pecking everyones toes and causing general mayhem in the brooder! LOL

Hi all, I'm new here and am looking for some laying chicks. I live in the Bastrop/Smithville area and would like to have Dominiques. I've checked the mail order places but they require minimum orders and I only have room for 5 at most... at least for this year.

I'd be interested if anyone has Dom chicks they's like to sell.

Thanks,
Karen

Welcome Karen...I'm sure someone on this thread had what you're looking for.

Kilsharion, all my 'lorpe girls are varying degrees of sweet except one. She isn't mean like hateful, but she is very ornery. I have to watch her or she likes to bite and leave welts and bruises on my arms. the others are sweet and calm though and love attention.

I think this explains why I stay home with my critters.. there are scary people out there.....

I'm not to far from you am on fentress and I have not been able to find any dominiquers either I settled for barred rocks and have been super pleased with them. though if you find someone who has them please let me know I've been looking for two years for someone local and have not found anyone, I might add though I haven't looked that hard though but I only recently found this website and everyone here will do their best to help! All us texans seem to stick together pretty well!!!!!!!

That gives me hope for mine, then
