The Middle Tennessee Thread

They were yellow. Have you got some pullets from him you are crossing him with?

This ones pretty yellow... hard to see in pics...

No, I hatched a batch from him and a black split pullet I got out of Jerry Seglers eggs... he said he's got recessive white in his lines too from Shaffer... but this is the only chick that looks like this... rest are obvious Lavs and blacks...

@BrandyJK has both bantam and lf... just posted that they're sold for now, but couldn't hurt to ask when she might have more available...

Thanks for your help. They are sold to me.

I haven't been on in about 2 forevers, but I wanted to say "HI!" even though I'm not technically a Middle-Tennessean anymore. I'm a N/Alabamian O.O

I've had a horrible couple of days. During the storms a couple days ago, something breached my fence and killed 3 out of 4 chickens. I found 1 badly injured. She died overnight. My dog helped me locate the other bodies yesterday. I am completely heartbroken. I love my girls. Neighbors dogs are usually the culprits around here, but I'll never know.

Buffy is all alone. I feel so bad for her. I'd like to see if anyone has a few chicks so so can raise them and introduce them to her, when possible. I had a barred rock, black marsh and americauna, but I'm open to any docile, large egg laying chicks. Thanks. I feel like I failed them.

I have 3 hens about 2.5 years for sale on craigslist. I also have 2 crosses.

Do you still have the 2.5 year olds? What breeds? Buffy is about that age. Maybe they would introduce well.

So sorry for your losses!!

You didn't fail them... unfortunate things happen...
