Would anyone on here be interested in getting into Gamefowl?..... I am looking for a partner. I have crossed my Bobby Boles Asil with Sid Tayler /Hatch .. With my Pure Bobby Boles and my Bantams I don't have room to raise all the chicks.... I need someone to raise the chicks on the halves .

Sad news today got up this morning to find 1 of my Seabrights on its side no longer with us and my other not doing so well and my bantam brown leghorn fading fast doing all i can but not sure if my Leghorn will make it. My son wanted the bantam leghorn and would like to find more for him if anyone knows who or where i can get some please let me know Thanks

Black and Red Stars are the same as the Dark and Red Sex Links. I do not know why they are changing the names but its the same birds.

I don't have a minimum.... but I don't have many I can sex.  I have some hatching today that will be sex links (Copper Marans and Easter Eggers).  Another though is to call other other TSC outside of Nashville and see if they have a minimum.  There is a Co-op on Dickerson Road in Nashville... they may not have a minimum.   The Poultry House might be out at Bonnies Barnyard today but that is in Triune... nice drive though.  There is a Feed Mill in Pleasant View and Edwards Feed in Lebanon.

Red Star, Golden Comet are Hatchery names for one of there crosses
Golden is a New Hampshire Rooster over a White rock hen. I don't know if the reverse will work or not.

Seabright made it and is up and eating and drinking on its own but my lil leghorn didnt got some golden seabrights so i will hatch Buff and Silver Seabrights..

Thank you all for the suggestions. Econman still had a few extras and we were able to swing over and pick up a few this weekend. Of course now we need more room in the brooder because the babies need more space. That is on the agenda for tonight.

My son and I candled tonight, and he is GIDDY! We could see one Maran was fertilized, but since they are so dark and we couldnt tell on the rest we're just keeping an eye on them. But 3 of the SBEL's are growing

My son spent the day tweaking the coop so everything is just right lol.

Yeah! Most of the Marans I set are clear.... I think. But they will stay till day 14. If they are clear then they get tossed.

I'm thinking they primarily are clear, but figured it wouldn't hurt to hang on til day14 as well. He accidentally put hairline cracks in 2, so we had to send those to egg heaven.
