    Any Home Bakers Here?

    Ooh! Idk why I didn't think of making just a nice fresh-squeezed lemonade. I'm gonna do that! In addition to some dessert. Still gotta decide what to make.

    Any Home Bakers Here?

    What desserts are you guys making for fourth of July? If I can't think of something more creative, I might just make some sort of mixed berry pie with blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries.

    6/28/2025 - Michigan Chickenstock

    Glad to hear you guys had fun! Every year I think I'll have time to make the drive from Cleveland, OH, but every year something comes up. Maybe next year! I'd love to meet more chicken people.

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Wow! Her second egg was much more green. :) Green eggs and ham, anyone?

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    That's really smart of you! It's good to let them have a rest. Best of luck with her offspring. :)

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Good to know! I typically try to steer clear of the high production super layers when I can, because they typically get reproductive issues and don't live long. Hopefully she doesn't have those genes. But I don't want to be negative. She's a healthy hen right now so I should be happy. :)

    Es normal que mi Brahma tenga un dedo mas corto que los otros en especifico el dedo donde se ven mas plumas, además de que no tenga uña en esos dedos?

    No habla español, but it seems the tip of your bird's toe was cut off. It could also have just been born that way. I don't think it is cause for concern. If it was an injury, it looks like it healed well. They should live a very normal life. I love Light Brahmas! Enjoy your birds :)

    Thank you! And yeah, I've never had a hen lay this early. They must have really bred for production, unless she's an outlier.

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    At just 15 weeks old, Clover laid her first egg today! It's more blue than I thought it would be, but still beautiful. I know sometimes the first few eggs look different from what color they end up laying for the rest of their lives though, so we'll see.

    Duped by tractor supply?

    It used to be 6 here in Ohio, but now it's 4. I was buying 6 meat chickens straight run, and added 2 laying hen chicks for a total of 8. That's how I ended up with only 2 :)

    Duped by tractor supply?

    It happens. Your rate was better than mine. 50% of the pullets I got from TAC turned out to be cockerels (but I only got 2 lol).

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Just updating for anyone now or in the future who is interested in this hybrid... At about 14.5 weeks, it seems Clover's earlobes are starting to develop and there is a possibility they could be green like someone else's on this thread's were. It's too early to tell, but they may just have a...

    OHio ~ Come on Buckeyes, let me know your out there!

    Just seeing this now. Thanks so much for giving Lincoln (formerly Link) a nice new home! He will be missed in our chicken yard, but I know he will have a great life at your place. It was nice to see you too! We will definitely keep you updated.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Same experience for me today! The torrential downpours the past two days may have been bad for my leaky basement, but they were great for weed-pulling in the strawberry patch today! :)

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Hi! She's about 14 weeks now and I'm almost 100% sure she's a pullet. Her comb and wattles got redder so I was worried, but they kind of have stayed the same and haven't gotten large like her brother's (Brahma cockerel of the same age). Let me try to get a pic for you.

    Northeast Ohio - Light Brahma Cockerel for Rehoming

    Thank you! He has gotten even more beautiful in the past few weeks. Do you have any interest in adopting him?

    A Cornish Cross (Breeding?) Journey

    Thank you both! I will give this a try next time we process. We usually keep 1-2 for roasting whole and tying the legs before baking can be a bit of a pain in the butt sometimes.

    A Cornish Cross (Breeding?) Journey

    Unrelated to the main topic of your post, but what is it you did there with the chicken legs of the processed chickens? How did you tie them together with another piece of skin, and can you cook them this way in the oven? Looks interesting to me and I've never seen that done before!
