I didn't keep any of the Mosaic roosters. Decided it was going to be too much trouble and I wasn't committed to the breed since it's so new. Both of my girls do have the turquoise lobes. Pixel, the darker hen, actually went broody so I don't have a good pic of her lobes, but clearly, Dot's are...

*waves* I'm still here, sort of. Lurking every now and again lol. I'm going to have some naked neck chicks available at the beginning of April, if anyone is looking for them :)

How'd ya guess??? ;) My husband doesn't anymore, since we moved and money/time got a little tighter, but his knowledge helped with chicken things, and for that, I'm thankful!

I've been curious about adding material to my run, but, it's basically 20x30. I suppose I could just set bales out and let the birds work them loose themselves. Hmm... Does it ever seem to get slick after a rain, or does it seem to pack down a bit?

Woo! This changeover of the website has really messed me up with following threads or participating much over here at BYC. I love seeing the recent banter though :) I just set my first batch of the year tonight, so should have some chicks for Valentine's Day. If anyone is near Holly Hill, I...

It's been weeks since I've been to the thread lol. Posting photos and sharing here has gotten a tad bit cumbersome so that's why I've been MIA. Not that I was a veteran of the thread, but I'm pretty sure I've forced my way through nearly all of it LOL Short story, I have way too many birds as...

So, I wound up with 4 boys and 2 girls. After much deliberation, I decided to sell all the boys and keep the two girls for my primary flock. Here are some photos from over the last few months.

I'll share photos a bit later today :) I sent the 4 boys on to new homes and kept the two ladies, who finally seem to be nearing point of lay. Hopefully I'll see eggs soon! Thanks for checking in!

@draye When my Ameraucana pick back up (they take breaks, apparently) I can send you some eggs if you'd like. Clean legged and you may get the chance for some blue mottled chicks from them. So far, every chick that has developed here has been naked necked, so the odds are good. I can probably...

I do, but I'm in SC and not NPIP. I just hatched my first batch of turken boys over my ameraucana hens and while I wish more had hatched, the chicks are lovely. I have someone coming by tomorrow to pic up more, plus the remaining chicks from the hatch. I also have a new layer that lays green AND...

Let me get with Melissa and see what she has. She's probably closer to you. I'll send you a pm later tonight :)

Chicks or eggs? I'm in Holly Hill and will have both in a month or two. Waiting for extra cockerels to get out of the girls' systems. If that's too far, I know of someone in Ridgeway with an excellent flock who helped me start my flock with eggs. There's also a guy down in Walterboro with hens...

No, this one :) https://www.facebook.com/groups/185764418533822/

Why yes, yes I do! Easter Egger X SS Red Sex Link X SS Black Australorp X SS cockerel (I thought this was my sex link - turns out I hatched two BA eggs and none from my Barred Rock! Ugh!) Group photo of a few of the girls, further descriptions below. Red Sex Link X SS (Golden Comet...
