    BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

    I have yet to figure this system out...I need to sit down, play around with it and that will be that. My Cuba dream got popped yesterday so back to Crete this coming winter, with plans to hit Sardinia and points north. Another surprise...Dad always said I was like a fart in a hail storm and...

    BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

    Everything is in order...I retained the 'throw-back' for you as well as some purebred rabbits and some percentage does...from 50%ers to 3/4 Florida Whites.

    BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

    If things work out, I might be spending 12 months in Cuba but I know I will have to check back to Greece sooner, rather than later.

    BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

    I come back and find a new chicken world. No matter... I've decided to sell all my birds with the exception of several that will be used to cover an obligation and will not be further encumbered with any livestock. They are as confining as children seem to be, or perhaps more so. What's...

    BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

    Very fine looking chicks! I just glad you have found time to do anything besides being stuck to your new house. You'll remember, I contacted you a while back with intent to try to wrangle you out of some 3/4 DC pullets but you didn't seem to be of a mind to hear anything other than your...

    You only have one? Maybe it could come live with me.

    Toad Raising.

    They are very tolerable to work with if you have a solid plan.... Not so much fun if you are just loitering, waiting for an idea to come together.

    The Buckeye Thread

    They aren't going to challenge the Leghorns but will give most 'dual purpose birds' a hard run for the money! I think they are especially good layers for such a large breed.

    I'm not interested in eggs but would love to get my hands on a nice trio of Rose combed whites.

    First Run of Cornish Cross Meat Birds and Super Excited!

    Dip...I don't really work at all right now nor for the foreseeable future and I still can't keep things straight in my head.

    Duck Breed Focus - Muscovy

    I can tell you this, he didn't hurt the population at all. The WV DNR provides Brother, and my dad before him copious amounts of those 12 gauge whiz-bang shells that make a lot of noise and it really does scare hell out of the geese and for that matter, anyone else that's not expecting it...

    Totally agree. Thanks for the sentiment about dad and yes, I would appreciate being put on the list. I can receive PMs but for some reason, I can't return. Gotta' get that checked out. Aaron

    Naked Neck/Turken Thread

    Whoa!!!! That was a lot of catching up. Not much news from this part of Kentucky except I have two NN hens that have gone broody, two or three days apart. These are three year old sisters that were covered by my hybrid Dark Cornish over Buckeye and they are on their own eggs but I'm not...

    Duck Breed Focus - Muscovy

    I absolutely love Muscovys...especially the white meat-bred ones. A story to tell...My dad (Hellbender) once shot a very large Canadian goose for several reasons but one was to try their meat. He retrieved the bird and proceeded to try many ways to de-feather the thing but was having very...
