    Where to buy in CA or Hatchery? Australorp, Java, Dorking, and Basque Hen

    Hello- I am wondering I'd there are any breeders near Sacramento that breed Dorking, Basque Hens, Australorp and/or Java? Looking at one pullet chick of each breed for 2025. Any recommended hatcheries that carry all or have a min order of 2 chicks and carry a portion of these breeds?

    My Hen went broody and hatched chicks in Freezing January... What do I do

    On of our hens (hatched this spring, out by a broody hen), was acting very odd last week. We were worried that she may be egg bound as she wasn't moving. Unfortunately, we observed her odd behavior as we were leaving for the airport for the week. We came back, nervously afraid to find a very...

    Broody Java Hen

    So my java recently started laying and has gone broody. My thought is either to let her try to hatch two eggs and hope that she will stop being broody once she has them or to try and break her from it. She barely gets up out of the nest. Thanks in advance

    Molted Java Chicks

    ISO a few molted java chicks, straight-run is fine. No rush, just want to get my name on a list to get some. Love this breed and want to help preserve quality lines! I am located in Indiana so would probably be shipping unless you are in State. Thank you!

    Blurry images of chicks. They wouldn’t stay still and they didn’t like the flash. Oops. Does anyone want to guess as to what any of these chicks breeds are?

    Mottled Java?

    Does anyone have any photos or personal experience with the breed? I purchased a mottled Java pullet from TSC a little over a month ago. She was the fattest fluffball ever but she is the most skittish, scared of her own shadow CHICKEN I’ve ever seen! I’d like to know more about them but it...

    Two Mystery Breeds

    I received an "assorted" mix from Sand Hill Preservation and while they provided a list of breeds two don't quite line up. There were two "filler" chicks so perhaps someone can help me identify. Photo uploading is being very weird with me today so apologies for that. The list says two Barred...
