I do! We spent a lot of work building them their own special pen and they get fresh garden lettuce every day. D'anvers are so cute! They look like little ameracaunas

Haha,if my mom said Yes,I would be showing them. But,I'm already breeding turkens,Ameracaunas and sumatras...

That's great!
Sounds like you have your hands full, !

Yes, the d'anver are kinda like an upright stocky version of an ameracuana, very similar in type.

I was lucky enough to pick up some Blue Laced Red Wyandottes from Foley's Waterfowl in KY.

They have a great reputation, and I'll vouch for Jerry being a very nice guy, and selling me to GORGEOUS pullets. They've just started laying, and are doing so quite reliably.

I haven't seen their other birds, but the photos of their Silver Laced Wyandottes are stunning. I hope to pick up one sometime this summer when I'm visiting my family in KY. Great people to deal with and great birds.

I do,I'm going to be showing the phoenix next year. Gotta build the sumatras a pen and I have to get this done and that.

Today,the cockerel bred one of the pullets correctly,he's still so young!!

I'm afraid the ee we have in with him will follow in his footsteps. Poor pullets. I'll make sure he doesn't..hopefully

Oh yeah,here's some pics of them.

I saw the white roo on your website,and he looks exactly like the silver one we have(he's masked by white)
I just wanted to mention,I love the design of your pens!! My mom likes them too. They're cute

Okay,I'll stop talking

I have a habit of doing that.

featherhill farm for anything he sells. He's devoted to stock that meets APA standard. Perhaps if he's busy enough with orders, I won't have to compete against him int he spring shows

AmyJo Piehl for silkies
both sell chicks, started, and adult birds but not eggs.

Sheryl butler for cochins, Calesta Rieth for silkies, etc.

-- sorry if it seems like I am pushing featherhill farms... but I think of all of the people selling hicks of multiple breeds his quality, in each breed, is more consistent than any other hatchery source..... even Urch. His prices are affordable enough for 4-h kids to place an order with the reasonable assurance that they will have something worth taking to a show.

I am not 100% sure (I will have to check with my source), but I think the BCM pullet I recently got from another BYCer was hatched from one of Wynette's birds' eggs. She's sooo pretty and has feathered legs. She's 15 weeks old so I am not sure yet what color eggs she'll lay, but she's got a really good personality and is healthy and bright.

No need to apologize! I was looking to start a list of people we trust and enjoy dealing with. I have dealt with some folks who I sort of recommend, and others that I can't say enough great things about.
