bamadude lol, it can be brutal, but if you ask, sumboddy gonna say, just sayin' lol. There are a LOT of knowledgeable people on BYC who don't post much, but when they do....listen. I've been breeding marans for a few years now, and have learned SO much from people on here. Eventually you may...

It depends on how fast you need eggs, if you're wanting eggs pretty quick, buy hens, if you buy chicks it will be about 5 or 6 months before you get eggs. Of course you will pay more for grown hens, but with feed costs you will have just as much in chicks by the time they're ready to lay as you...

oh yeah, I would definitely like to see those orpingtons! love the English orpingtons

Oh yeah, trying to find some girlies for my buff brahma bantam. I lost my two hens late last summer before I got a chance to hatch any, so, if I do find any, I'm just concentrating on the marans and the buffs. If I don't find him some girlies, then he gotta go.

Heyyy Wisher, unfortunately my work phone doesn't allow me to get texts :(. Nope, I didn't go, Lindsey had a barrel race. Well, I got rid of all the welsummers and cull marans. Just looked at my hens I have left, and need to make a few more culls. And I guess, the blue copper roo is just going...

why do you say that, bamadude?

I just thought I'd share, because I was excited to find these from some pullets I hatched last year. 5 and 6's on the marans scale.

Yeah, I really liked these cochins. I got the eggs from a guy in Jasper. Whenever I cull down to what chickens I want to keep, ANd get more pens built I may try to get some more.

I'm actually in Tuscaloosa county. I sold all my bantams except a light brahma roo. I'm not even really sure it was a mille fleur, could have been a calico, but he was pretty.

Hey wisher, see ya over there....Neal just posted on facebook about the backyard chicken day here. I'm going to try to post that flyer on here.

If anyone is interested, I have some hens and roos for sale, all bantams. I have 1 salmon faverolle roo, 1 light brahma roo, 1 mille fleur(I think) roo, 2 red cochin hens,and 1 partridge cochin hen. All are just about 1 year old. One of the red's is broody right now. I would prefer to sell all...

Plan on going this year as they will have a poultry show there, might take a bantam buff brahma to show.

Oh. Forgot to add, I've also ordered 25 Welsummer chicks, so I'll hopefully get a decent rooster, and later on when they're laying I'll be selling chicks from the Welsummers. I think you've seen how dark those eggs are. Plus I've got one Maran hen in the egg laying pen that is laying THE most...

The black coppers I'll be culling down for breeders, the blue copper/black copper,,,,,well, not quite sure yet!! lol I'll be keeping the best looking hens out of that cross, and maybe if I'm lucky I'll get a decent looking blue copper male, it looks like from the first 1 1/2 dozen that's...

Ha, yeah right! I'm working on more pens to separate out marans breeding pairs, and I've got chicks coming out my ears. !!!

Hold on a minute, so you're telling us that broilers are being raised in an inhumane way. Ok, it typically takes an averageof 6 weeks(I think that's right) to raise a broiler to size. The birds are housed in a huge heated building, with lots of room to roam, not that they're going to move much...

Welcome to all the new peeps!

Tomtom, we're not mad at you for pointing out what trashy people there can be here. We know that, they're probably our cousins!! LOL But for every one of those there are a hundred, or a thousand more awesome Alabama people. I think some of us who know better, get tired of hearing how (from...
