I have to part ways with this amazing pair. I got them both from Burtis 4? years ago and due to large cat predation I must see them off to a new safer home. Purple Black-shoulder is not easy to come by and the hen is the Black-shoulder pattern. There are 2 chicks that hatched the 1st of...

The tom is from Frank Reese and the hen is from a Heritage flock. I love these two and hate to see them go, but the predators want to see them stay. I'll try to get pics of them, but there are some in the Cinco de Mayo Hatchathons from the last few years.

I've struggled for a couple of years with the idea of setting aside my breeding projects and have determined it's simply got to happen. I travel for work and hiring farmhands hasn't been good enough for the birds and hasn't helped me find the time to manage them as these lovely gems deserve...

During the Inaugural Turkey Hatchathon, we were a small but mighty group of newbies and old-timers. Last year during the 2nd Annual, we were a spry mix with dry humor, fabulous numbers, and obnoxious straight-jackets. This year many of us have our own turkeys starting to lay, and we're...

This is a sale for eggs I can't fit in my incubators, birds that aren't laying enough to sell regular lots, for pens that have only been separated for a week-10 days, and just because variety is the spice of life!! You will receive the hens' choice of 6++ eggs as they arrive from the ladies...

Hola!! I get a lot of requests for this, and there's a link to my member page of it in my signature, but I thought having it in a thread may make it easier to find, as well...so, here it is, for better or worse, and definitely needing an update: ChooksChick's Henthusiasts' Still-Air...

Well, for many parts of the country, this is the worst season for pollen and mold counts ON RECORD. At least, that's what I was told when I went, panicked, to the doctor Monday. You see, I had life-threatening asthma as a child, triggered by dander, feathers, molds, pollens, dust, eggs...

I have a bunch of chicks from the Silkied Ameraucana project available, from 4 weeks old to 8 weeks old. They are all splits, so they don't show the fluffy feathers. Please read all of this ad before bidding on these birds, as this is an unusual projects and there is a likelihood of...

Hello, long missed friends!! I have 33 messages in my inbox here, and I haven't even thought about looking at my regular emails...I've been crushed under work demands, family health crises, and other whatnot. I apologize for not answering all of you reaching out to me for various reasons, and...

A Yahoo! Group I'm on just had a thread posted from a notification that a breeder in Milford, Michigan had her birds stolen. These include a Red pair, Red Pyle Sizzles, White and Splash. Also reported stolen was a Black skinned/Black Feathered Showgirl pullet. Please report anything you...

I can't remember the details, but my mom cut up a bird differently than the typical 8 piece method (breast, wing, thigh, drumstick), and it wasn't the culinary 8 piece method, either (drumstick, thigh, upper breast and upper wing joint, lower breast). There was a piece that had part of the...

So...there are these very friendly ducks at the runoff pond for the parking lots and campus of a local hospital, and there are Canada geese and whatnot... This is at a VERY BUSY intersection in a nasty spot for silly ducks. A few of us want to rescue them and are looking into legalities, etc...

I was due to bump my auctions in 1 day, some hours last I looked (at least a day ago), and just noticed that now my auctions are due to be allowed for bumping in 9 days and some hours. What is the rule here? Has something changed?
