Got any old storage tubes? We made several boxes out of them. Also the bathroom shower has been used in a pinch too. I’ve done some creative things around here over the years 😂

We used to do Goat Ribs on the BBQ, so good

Goat flavour and texture like sheep changes with age too. A lot of people who have told me they love lamb but hate goat, because it is tough and flavour, when I ask how old the goat was it was always a full grown or even really old goat… I then ask have they ever had mutton, they usually either...

That’s perfect sized. I will be cleaning out my refrigerator freezer and the little frig this weekend. The microwave died, going to take my microwavable foods to work for lunch. Hardly use the microwave except at work so not really looking to replace it anytime soon. Then the big freezer is...

Sent them an email

Off to check it out.

Well yes it is all in flux, isn’t it. I noticed the chicks are not selling out like they did last year. That was insane. I did hear from Cackle direct they are having an issue with supplying their various Production RIR chicks, but getting their show quality easier… but I would have to cancel my...

Yes I will have to figure that out down the road with the general ideas on breeding I have some specific ideas I am leaning toward but I really need to see what I have to work with. Eggs are super important for us. Meat is for friends.

I like him…

I see you want the boys to mature a bit quicker. They are fluffy the Brahmans. I suspect the Saipan and Jersey Giants I ordered will take at least over 18 months to mature fully maybe even a full 2 years. But really curious to see if they truly are large birds. The Egyptians I ordered are...

Thank you. I figured your Brahman mixes would be your heaviest. I have been weighting my chicks every Thursday… I need to weight the big hens. Though just looking at them and picking them up I know which 5 weight the most, and out of them I suspect the Maran and one of my Olive Eggers are my...

A nice brown and red… what weights?

I really like the colour on your reds, the mahogany is starting to come through really nicely. What is the weight range on your keeper boys?

Nice

Gorgeous birds

Olive Egger? Polish Cross?

He matured beautifully… wow

Yeah, and I learned years ago here in the old USA if you accidentally breed a bird that ends up looking like an awesome version of X breed, you can show it as X breed even though it is not from that breed pool… the Wild West it is… 😂 That is why I roll my eyes when people go in about Show Lines...

I am figuring I am going to have to do similar. It helps knowing what genes might hide (pesky recessives if you don’t want that gene) or will not show in an f1 cross… but might resurface with the right back breeding.

Maybe that is what is going on then… Darker expression on the head has got to be related to another gene, pesky genes. On the DNA I have been trying to match up my birds too… looking at pages and pages of genetics. Ughh. So hard. I lucked out and found the DNA codes for Crested Cream Legbars...
