there is a big difference between hatchery and heritage. I do understand though.

Red dorkings will go broody. The rocks are good winter layers and the partridge rocks are very pretty.

Ooh all this talk of chicks makes me wish it was spring soon. I don't really have enough room to do chicks right now. And I really really really want to hatch some.
Did I say I really want to hatch some?
Of course I do!

@ronott1I found that my hachery white Leghorns needed NO extra light to lay almost every single day, from start up until their first molt. My golden Comets, and production Rhode Island Reds can't hold a candle to the leghorns.

BUT, the leghorns fulfilled the other part of the stereotype too. After a year of laying one had a prolapsed vent. :sick

By the way folks, thanks for taking all my cold weather! :weee we are still warm and RAINY up here! :woot
