Ah, happy stomping grounds of my teenage days of yore bf marriage and traveling the world...welcome aboard. We would love to hear from you.

I'm glad that you have great memories. We are in Snow Hill, MD. If you have ever heard of the night club called Woodside, you may know of the farm that we are on. We love it back here! Our flock is so mixed up. We will have 15 breeds before the spring.
I cannot wait to hear all about everyone's experiences.

Oh, I was thinking about this and had to go back and scroll to see this again... Something else.
Check her throat to see how much black is inside her beak and throat. If there is a lot of black she may have the Ayam Cemani mixed in with her Phoenix Bantam. If a little black she may have the Sumatra Bantam mixed in with her Phoenix Bantam. So it helps you target which way to go if you want a boyfriend for her. Or if you just want to
Know what makes her. I thought about it when my Ayam Cemani girl took off with the Phoenix Bantam girls headed for the woods. I know she will split from the pack and march to her drummer later on in the morning.

Not sure if I can catch her. She is not afraid of me but she was not handled before I got her. She roosts on her own at night. She does make a really cute sound and I love watching her.

Are you kidding? My aunt & uncle owned a bar and grill in White Marsh, Maryland. In fact Uncle Fritz ( passed away about 40 years ago) and his daddy collected the rocks from there to build it. I miss the German/Norwegian foods up there.

I am from the other side of MD. The part that is dangling in the water...haha. My stomping grounds before college were here in Ocean City. My little family travels to the Baltimore area at least once a month.
We do not have any Norwegian or German places here to eat. But if you make friends with some, they will invite you over to enjoy a meal/feast. They would always ask me to bring something after they found out that I could cook. My dish was never one of their traditions, but from one of my many backgrounds. I have a bit of every continent. I am one of the only ones in my family that has dark skin, dark eyes, and curly hair though.
Oddly I prefer a mixed flock just like my family. My first chick as a kid was given to me by a cousin. She told me that it was "black" like me, and thought I would appreciate it. I hated the thought of being black/different, or associated with it then, but now I find my Black Australorps and Black Minorca's to be so beautiful. And I learned to love my reddish brown skin that is over a very light undertone. Funny how we learn from chickens.
