Gus, LPeaslee, you guys are making me giggle over here with your rooster stories. I had a cockerel once who was a little too randy and tried to jump on a tom...... Yeah, that didn't go down well.

Ours just crowed for the first time today! It was a burst of exuberance and he crowed about ten times in a row, more quietly. Then he was done, and not a peep since. I was glad to have an austrolorp roo. I'm sorry yours isn't one you can be happy about, Cynthia! On a funny note, I just looked out and saw him mate with one of my EE's, and she promptly chased him across the yard. He is such a tender flower!

In other news... I am just dying for some chicks having seen all these pictures on here. I'd love to have two or three marans. I found some cuckoo marans, but I don't love barred hens. Does anyone have any non-barred maran chicks they want me to buy?

I'm hatching these beauties for the Easter Hatch A Long..I won them in the New Yrs. Day Hatch A Long. He has said that I can get them now instead of back then. This guy has won multiple prizes for his egg color. If I do well, if you are still interested, let me know. I know Lisa is getting some real pretty eggs now, bet she's set a few by now.

If so, she may have some for you in a couple of weeks..Lisa?

Hah, Red! I hope that guy lived after that... The only turkey I've known was pretty blustery.

Cynthia, I remember seeing pictures of those eggs. I'd love to have a chick or three from those, if you can spare. Or if Lisa has some, I'd take some of hers. Just let me know. Thank you!

I'd take some of those started pullets off your hand in a second. Unfortunately, I don't have a quarantine area large enough for chickens of that age. I always need to start with newly hatched chicks. Wish I could take some started hens.

 

[the-bird-man]

so sorry about all the roos that is my fear about getting chicks, getting attached and finding out one is a roo

 

[LPeaslee]

Oh boy, I went to the new Tractor Supply in West Haven and I was a bad boy. Hope DW doesn't get too mad!

I should also have a few Black Copper Marans hatching in 2 weeks.

I bet you little roo never tried that agan. Or did he?

 

[RedIII]

LPeaslee, nope! He never tried it again

Okay! Let's play "What did LPeaslee get at TSC?" !! I say six chicks. Or an incubator.

Sandy, just gotta say that those Breda's are sure pretty. Hope you find a home for them soon.
