I yesterday moved my marans little flock to their new coop. not only there was no stress but they loved it!. as it has been made in part of my vegetable garden they enjoyed foraging. the new coop is similar to the old one so they didn't mind moving. I put with them luna and a araucana/ameraucana mix who where in the girls pen before.
Haaa! Sometimes it's better to be lucky. You have a nice start and I like where your head is at. You'll do well and the folks on this thread are willing to help. You'll do well with your birds. KeithQuote:
Thanks for the praise everyone. I DESERVE IT!!! I bet you all want to know all of my secrets!!! I am going to tell you. Get a pen and some paper ready. This is the first installment. I will provide all the gory details of my breeding techniques over hundreds of posts. Please do not fall asleep, this is important!!!!!! Here is the high-level version, I will get into more detail later on: 10 years of selective breeding. Combing through 100s of potential candidates each year. Selecting the best to bring on the next generation. Using my extensive knowledge of the Standards Of Perfection. Applying that to my selection process. Using my extensive DNA knowledge to know which rooster and which hen will produce the best offspring. Raising the offspring with as much diligence as I can muster. Actually all of that is untrue. I received 14 day old chicks from someone I believed was a good breeder. That was it. I am a total newbee!!! I got lucky. Thanks for all of the praise again, but it is misplaced. The person I bought the chicks from deserves all of the praise. That said. I will try to improve upon what I have from learning from this thread and receiving comments from others. The true lesson here is to start with the best you can find. Pick the best breeder you can!!!!
