Yep, misters going, fans in their chicken house on in the afternoon until 10:00 at night. I have shade cloth over their runs and wet those down which really helps. Fans pull in the cool air on the run side and fans on the other side of coop pull hot air out. Hate this heat because I really worry...
I have a friend that travels to Redding once a month to take care of her mom. I have people waiting for chicks, but If I have extras I will let you know. Message me so I remember. :) Chicks due the 26th.
What an adorable picture! I love my d'Anvers from Boggy Bottom Bantams. I have MF and Porcelain eggs incubating from my flock. If you want to post close up straight on pictures of their faces I might be able to help you sex them. My pullet chicks have been the mellow ones.
I might not be hatching the partridge color this year. I have someone who might be taking my white hen (who produces partridge bred to my porcelain rooster) and her partridge daughter.
I have my Mille Fleur bantam Belgian Bearded d'Anvers separated and just waiting for them to start laying.
My Silkies are laying well. They are self blue cream, partridge, lavender splash and a chance of solid lavender.
Wow!! She turned out beautiful!!! So glad she lays such a neat egg! The Golden Cuckoo Marans x blue wheaten Ameraucanas make some lovely babies that lay cool looking eggs.
Nice Marans eggs too! Love the chocolate Marans eggs!! My two wheaten Marans pullets I hatched this year from a show...
I will have Mille Fleur Belgian Bearded d'Anver chicks (parents are from Boggy Bottom Bantams~ check out his website) and eggs in the spring. d'Anvers are perfect for children to show. Also beautiful Self Blue Cream Silkies from top breeder Catdance.
Hi Lisa, I hope you don'y mind me jumping in here, but I thought I would clarify for people who may be interested in your roosters from my eggs that the rooster in the second picture is not a wheaten, but looks to be a cross from my buff Ameraucana hen x blue wheaten Ameraucana rooster. Also...
Thanks Vicki, I have already posted them on FB 530 Poultry. The group moves so fast my ads get lost in conversation the same day I post it. Like everyone else, I am way over my chicken limit and need to seriously downsize! Trying to decide who goes. Hard! I love them all!
I have a cute, small white Silkie hen available that goes broody more often than not. All mine do. She is a year and a half old. She is from Catdance Silkie eggs and produces super nice quality partridge chicks when crossed with my Porcelain roosters. One of the porcelain roosters is available...
I don't like the cutting part so I'm not sure I could do it even though I worked as a vet tech and assisted with surgeries, so I commend you. I have done my share of other saves. Star gazer, wry neck, internal layer, prolapse, bumble foot, injuries, hatching problems, etc. When you have had...
