If I didn't know the "Chicken Police" would get me, I have to have some of these!
I've been raising chickens, ducks, and geese for years, but I'm very new to English Orpingtons. Just got my first ones (still need to get pictures, but they're very young). Since they are so young, I want to start them out right and raise them well. Is it possible for someone experienced in raising exhibition EOs to post a thread about raising them to condition for showing? Thanks!!!
Some top breeders of Orpingtons feed chick starter exclusively to all age birds. Keeping the birds out of the sun is a must for show. Proper care, lots of water and nutritious feed. Then bath the bird a few days before the show. there are several threads on show conditioning. The breed may be different, but the concept is the same.
I started shipping again this week.
Thanks,
Marc
Renie,I can't feed chick starter to my older birds because it makes them sneeze. I guess it is the powder that does it to them.
