Right? I have no interest in that colour regardless cause all I asked for was BBS…🤷🏼♀️
Kinda weirds me out that she’s tryna sell me some other sh*t…
…Makes me think twice, ya know?
Yeah, we’re under freeze warning for this weekend too. Keep ‘em warm, @WallyG74…
And then get rid of ‘em lol
(All but the ones you plan to keep, of course)
Okay, so…I just heard back from the breeder I’ve been waiting on and she said that she’ll let me know what colours she’s got when her next BBS batch of eggs hatch.
She tried selling off some lavender chocolate mottled and black mottled chicks to me instead but I was like “hell naw…”
Yeah, that’s about right depending on distance/fertility/location. This breeder is about a 2hr drive north of me, so not too far away and now I’m thinking that even if I do decide to get some eggs too then it’s still probably best if I were to just pick them up myself rather than dealing with...
Hmm. Trying to decide which is the better deal…Buy a dozen fertile BBS Orp hatching eggs for $60 and pay extra to have them shipped to me or take a little road-trip up north to pick out 5 chicks with colors I want for $60 instead? 🤔
Sounds kinda similar to what I have going on although I ended up covering mine with sheet metal roofing and strapped tarps as windbreakers along the sides.
ETA: My apologies for the confusion, btw. It’s been a long weekend and night for me. Also, I hate Mondays 🤦🏼♀️
Ah, I see. My girls aren’t even using the nesting box from last year anymore and have been laying their eggs in the smaller chicken coop within the shed lately…No thanks to my matriarch hen BG who led them all on to do that…And I dunno how my turkey hen fits her big a** in there too, but she...
Do you have a lot of squabbling going on over “best” nesting box or area for them to lay in too? I swear mine lose their minds like this every time I’m gone 🤦🏼♀️
ETA: Excluding winter of course
