    Developing My Own Breed Of Large Gamefowl For Free Range Survival (Junglefowl x Liege)

    That description sounds unbelievably beautiful, and I'd imagine with you keeping them on free range and exposure to natural pressures as well as artificial selections, they will remain intelligent and allert, unlike many lethargic breeds that have been completely pen bred for many generations

    Hard Lesson About Wild Jungle Fowl Mamas

    I'd say let her try again, and maybe she'd be better if she was in a more natural spot to do it, for example, I have a marans ancona cross (beautiful little hen) that loves to set in a weedy corner of my garden and she has hatched 2 broods this way successfully, but her first in the coop was a...

    Starting a new feral flock of jungle fowl hybrids in the distant future.

    So, it's interesting, I'm justa few miles away from OEGB, and we aren't like harsh extreme desert, we've got a lot of viable forage opportunities and as long they've got water, and there is some form of predation control, they'll be fine. I know a few ranchers who remember their grandparent's...

    Landrace/adaptive breeding discussion

    I've yet to have game chickens to know for sure but based on what I've seen from others' flocks is that its around 8 weeks. Of course someone with more knowledge than me should say for sure.

    Hey Mr. Heltzel! I would absolutely love to get birds from Sandhill, and I heard that a lot of his stock came from you. I figured that I'd say hi, and that its super neat that both you and him are working to save those old endangered breeds that are still so valuable. I really want to get some...

    Developing My Own Breed Of Large Gamefowl For Free Range Survival (Junglefowl x Liege)

    Wonder if you'll end up getting something like the wild turkey or sage grouse affect, where a bird from otherwise small heritage gets bigger due to predator pressure so long as food is available. wouldn't that be something, a chicken the size of a small wild turkey or average sage grouse that...

    Developing My Own Breed Of Large Gamefowl For Free Range Survival (Junglefowl x Liege)

    Gotta love the Arizona Chaparral country. Seems like down in the little gullies and valleys, like I'm in, there's a lot more scrub oak and catclaw, both of which are good cover and the oak drop lots of leaves, which make the perfect home for edible insects and the catclaw drops pods, which are...
