Does anyone have growth weights on Jersey Giants according to a chart? I am trying to figure out the cost/benefit ratio of raising Jersey Giants and processing them sooner than their “maturity date”. I was hoping to get in communication with somebody who has experience with this breed.
Hi! I’m near to Fort Worth, TX and seeking Jersey Giant (splash, black, blue) hatching eggs. Does anyone know where I can get them or have them shipped? Not having luck on FB or really anywhere.
Thank you!
Hello!

A neighbor gave me a batch of jersey giant hatching eggs, and I ended up with one pullet (predators took the rest, long story short), and she has very interesting coloring. My neighbor told me that laced or splash was possible, but lace is super rare. I've tried googling 'laced...
On March 16th, after much anticipation and near-obsession, 9 black Jersey Giant chicks will hatch and be shipped to me. This is my first flock. For a year, I’ve been researching, plotting, planning, and acclimating my husband to the idea… and it’s all about to happen. Chicken stewards (chicken...
