buckeye

Hello, I know that Google always talks about how good Buckeye chickens are. They say they are weather hardy and pretty sickness resistant, but my experience with buckeyes has not been the same. The only chicken I have ever lost from sickness is a buckeye, he had trouble breathing, but acted...

I've tried looking up via Google and come down to a few possible breeds. Was she a Welsummer or Buckeye? I really miss her. This was before she crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈😓❤️ The top lower right in the picture was when she was a a lil baby🐥. Really appreciate finding out.

As I’ve been researching which DP to get for meat birds, I keep coming across people saying to make sure to buy from a breeder. It sounds like some hatcheries are good, but breeders (breeding for meat quality) should be better. I’ve searched on other websites and here on BYC, on Facebook and...

I appreciate all the pics here on BYC, so I thought I'd share our crew! The first group is currently 2 weeks old. Purchased 6 from Tractor Supply (TSC) June 4 (hatch date June 1). 4 Easter Eggers (labeled as Americana) and 2 Cuckoo Marans. We will be sharing 3 of these with friends in a week or...

My Buckeye at 11 Months. He is my baby and likes to be held. A very gentle breed.

Hello! We are first time homesteaders on 2.25 acres in a farming community. We are trying to find 4 or 5 Buckeye pullets or older hens in the Ohio area. We just love these birds! However, we are having trouble finding them other than baby chicks. They will be well taken care of and loved! If...

I've spent most of my time so far in the coop/run forums and I am so excited to make the jump over to here. I'm a first-time chicken wrangler and am set to pick my chicks up at Meyer Hatchery on May 28th (I'm lucky I live only 45 minutes away!!) Here is what I have ordered: 4 buckeye females...

Looking for a somewhat larger redwood incubator (doesn’t have to necessarily be huge, but open to seeing anything). Located in Upstate NY and would prefer something there, but willing to travel to neighboring states, and possibly even further for the right deal. Let me know what you have. Thanks!

Any pictures and stats, of the F1 cross, or first generation of the cross would be greatly appreciated. :wee Live and carscass :D

I have raised 4 Buckeye hens since July 2017 when they were just three days old. They are now just over a year old. Named Trixie, Sadie, Heidi, and Dee Dee, they live out back behind the garage in the Fluster Cluck where they offer free peep shows daily!

I have a buckeye hen named Julie Ruin who is just over a year and a half old. I barely saw her through the end of summer and most of fall as I was recovering from injuries and not able to care for my birds myself. Julie Ruin is not preening her feathers. They look all scraggly. And she has...

I am looking to start a self sustaining flock, using eggs/chicks from 2 separate breeders. I am not looking for buckeyes from a hatchery. I am looking for eggs/chicks from now through May of 2018. If you are a breeder, please let me know which strain of buckeyes you have and how many...

Hey everyone, I have had what I would call a successful first year with my flock of chickens, I started out with 30 but 5 of those were roosters who have made a great addition to my freezer, and I've started selling eggs, which has been a blast so far my favorites have been the Plymouth barreds...

I'm in Ohio to go to Ohio International, and I heard there are many Buckeye breeders in Ohio. I am a Buckeye fancier myself, with and I am going to get bantam Buckeyes there! I love Buckeyes because of there hardiness and free ranging qualities, plus they grow very fast and lay lots of eggs...
