I hate stamps, but I love chickens

Plus, I have to pay for stamps, I just hatch the chickens. And you can't just tell a chicken that he needs to go to New York because somebody there wants him...

I've never eaten a stamp in my life, but chickens on the other hand...

One thing is for sure, if chickens were like stamps, I'd have to pay a lot less to raise them and there would never be any culling involved.

Hey!!! I feel like the kid on the playground. The one playing all alone....even after several attempts to join in the fun and games in this thread!!!.

I'm even getting really cool SLW and I don't even get a nod of acknowledgement.

It's been a long while since I've felt like a kid on a playground

Thanks for making me feel like a kid again, at least!

Anyway - I'm not giving up! I want to learn! I want to play!!!!

I am sorry you have felt neglected Kelly. Welcome to the Wonderful World of Wyandottes!!
You will be getting some great birds and you will be amazed with their color and size.
Thanks for posting and having such great excitement and energy about your Wyandottes.
Is that better?

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!! Much better! I have been combing these pages looking for good reading material on the breed standard and other important info - and looking for a "society to join".

I've had two SLW for three years (among other breeds), but they are from Ideal....and for the last year I've been entertaining the idea of sinking some real money to get some nice birds....ready to tak the plunge now!

I'm sooooo excited!!!! I ordered a dozen: 6 will be from one pen and 6 will be from her second pen....so I'll be able to start a (very) small breeding project.

Thanks, again, for playing - do you want to play Four-Square?!!!

Do all of you with Partridge Wyandottes have American Mohogany Partridge? Is there anyone on here with unpatterned Partridge Wyandottes?

If they were to be unpatterned Partridge they would be Black Breasted Red, would they not? At least that is what they would seem like to me, I may be totally wrong though.

BBR is red duckwing, partridge is not the same, male partridge look very similar to duckwing males but the females lack the salmon breast. partridge with the addition of Pg is patterned partridge. Could you post pictures of your Partridge Wyandottes?
