I look forward to meeting you! I can hardly wait!
Maybe we should all order some shirts alike, so we can find each other!

Ummm, as much as I would love to.... naw, I will have to pass on the NNs. I have at least 150 birds to get rid of already, before winter hits.

Well, about 100 will be processed for the freezer. I have an appointment with the processor on Sept 13. Not really sure what I will have left after that. I would like to get down to 100 for the winter, I do know that. However, the eggs in the incubator (Projects) don't count though.

Hey guys

I have some split lemon cuckoo orpington cockerels I'd like to rehome. I hatched them from Greenfire split eggs. I live in Illinois south of Chicago and have no experience shipping.

Please contact me if you are interested

Pat

I would be happy to send you some eggs! However, you may want to wait for the F3s.
In the F2s the results will be alot of culls:
Mating these F1 birds together will produce (in a large hatch)
Barred;Black;Delaware;Split gold/silver males;Buff Columbian; Barred Buff Columbian & Silver Columbian (the last will be pullets)
in the ratios 18:6:3:2:1:1:1
The Delawares will be in a ratio of 2 males to each female.
Select the Delawares & the Silver Columbian pullets.
