How old is Flowers? Could you please post a picture of one of her eggs? I would love to have a flock of lavenders that look like her.

Sorry for the bad lighting, I'll take a better pic in the morning
 
Ok experts I need an answer I had before the attack one white hen that became my sitter she laid big brown eggs and at first was a little testy when she was broody but got to the point where she was ok with me checking in on her daily. I would pet her check if everything was ok and she would purr.
I lost her but have no idea as to what breed she was but she was bigger than my buffs were. That's all I can say I dont have any pics of her at egg laying age. But when she went broody she was determined to sit I tried for three weeks to stop her but fat chance there
 
GAM, I have 6 Marans. Can't really tell the sexes yet. Just know at least two males....big legs. I'm hoping for at least two females. Do you want all my boys? LOL! I have maybe 3 Swedish Flower cockerels, 1 Chocolate Orpington male and those Marans. All purebreds.

Anyone else interested? I have them on Craigslist for $10 each, but will sell them to BYC friends for $5 each.

Flowerbh,
Do you have pics of your Chocolate Orp parents? I'm going to look at some adults today, but I have concerns about the tail colors on the male.


Hi all! Long time no chat!
Basically I needed a break, since I brought some chicks home, quarantined them 30 days, put them in my grow out pen and lost ALL my growouts.
My swap chicks from the cook out last year, my welsummers, marans, speckled sussex, black & blue Ameraucanas, EVERYTHING in my big pen.
Over 100 when all was said and done.
Had the state vet out, she said it was ILT (Infectious Laryngeal Tracheosis) and that everything in that pen would be a carrier IF it survived.
I had to cull what didn't die.

Then I sold everything in the adjoining pen, just in case, with a disclaimer that they MIGHT be carriers. They were bought for eating so the family didn't care.
Broke my heart to load up some of those! All my RIR, BBS Ameraucanas, Silver Laced Wyandottes,so much more.

It really took a lot emotionally, so I kind of dropped out.


Luckily I had separate pens on the other side of the yard with my Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Ams, my Lavender Orps and Ams, my Silkies and my Buff Orps (although something got their rooster so they are just for eggs) and I switch shoes between sides of the yard.
5 of each breed.

I'm starting over as far as my big pen with a Cackle Surprise (or two) and some quail. I've been loving my Cackle babies, and am going to try to frame up a bigger brooder for them today.
Hubby will finish if I can start it :)


I'm supposed to go look at a good friend's English Chocolate and Chocolate Cuckoo Orps today, 3 hens, 2 roos. That would fill my last separate pen.

I've read about the last 4 pages, trying to catch up a little.
I have missed you all, and I did appreciate Flowerbh checking on me before the Newnan show. I told her some of what had gone on, why I had disappeared, But I have missed you all!
 
Is there anyone close to me, I'm in Pine Mountain are near Callaway Gardens that has a young or young adult sweet docile hen, maybe a 1 year or younger that they would part with. I lost my Ginny last night...can you say devastated !! I cried myself to sleep and woke up crying. My chickens are my babies, and my therapy, since i suffer from severe depression and PTSD among other things. Just wondered. I have chicks, and was more comfortable with a older one in the coop to watch over them. I of course am not trying to replace Ginny, that could never happen. Thanks in advance..
