Thank you.nice birds!
I got a set of those out of South Carolina. Something killed them.
They are different sizes. I got different breeds. I let them mate and get different colors.I like how you diversify your cocks: in addition to the average white cock, I see some beautiful brown and black cocks there. Great job, you are clearly not racist...
Is it just my imagination, or are the brown and black cocks slightly larger?
That's what we do.I was raising my chicks until they had feathers. Then I took them to the farm market and I was getting $8 each for them.
What are you feeding those under-sized cocks?
They are babies, not undersized.What are you feeding those under-sized cocks?
My grand dad let his chickens free roam to eat bugs and get exercise. He fed them oyster shells to.They are babies, not undersized.
Corn, oyster shell, lots and lots of different vegetables and all the bugs they want.
When chickens get to roam and eat bugs the yolks on the eggs get dark orange. I think they taste better,My grand dad let his chickens free roam to eat bugs and get exercise. He fed them oyster shells to.
I need a rooster to hatch eggs though. Plus the rooster is a lookout and protector.Did you know you don't need a rooster to have eggs? Do you know the eggs you buy in the store are three weeks old? Meijer seems to be the freshest I've found.
And they taste stronger as well. Country eggs always have a stronger taste to me than store bought eggs.When chickens get to roam and eat bugs the yolks on the eggs get dark orange. I think they taste better,
And where do you buy Meijer eggs?Did you know not all eggs are the same? Some are better for frying and baking and some are better for boiling. Did you know you don't need a rooster to have eggs?

Yep. That is why we raise them.And they taste stronger as well. Country eggs always have a stronger taste to me than store bought eggs.
