I ordered button quail eggs (when she used to sell them) from Breezy Bird Farms in Rosenort, Manitoba in 2020 and most of them hatched. They were sent fast and packed well. Her website is amazing and I still have a $5 off coupon from her..Hope it doesn't expire as I'd like to try again with silkies one day. I had two silkies but were unlucky with a raccoon when the satin tried to hide under the feeder in the run and the remaining silkie was at the bottom of the pecking order plus the only silkie so that didn't help her survive winter with the other hens too well.

Cute! Is that a Houdan?

Chris- I think I get the reference- The Outsiders? One of my favourite books.

[lilwanderer]

Here’s one of my Easter babies. I have a question for any of you blue breeders. This little guy is from any one of my 5 Easter egger hens. Hatched from a blue egg. Dad is a Barred rock. Do you think this baby could end up blue or maybe blue barred? This is the only blue chick out of 27. View attachment 3466040

Here's one of old rooster who looked similar-ish, he ended up having some blue barring. His mother was a cuckoo maran with a SLR wyandotte rooster.
Him as a chick:
