Sorry For Not Posting Much Lately. Here Are Some Of My Chicks Who I've Already Moved Out To The Coop.

I'm thinking of eventually starting a breeding project and would like to know yalls opinions on body type. Most probably wouldn't even notice much difference.

First off, cubalaya are much heavier/sturdier in body whereas the marans classic dual-purpose body type can fool you as to how much meat they actually have on them. Cubalayas are technically a dual purpose breed but most keep them for show. It's one of the rare breeds and most online breeders only keep the bantam varieties.

Personally I prefer the small comb and almost nonexistent wattles of the cubalayas along with the hens flat back in line with almost level tail.

What I'm looking for in my breeding project is

Color - white pattern red wheaten (finished breed)

Egg color - Speckled brown (not required)

Temperament - Flighty to escape predators

Foraging - excellent foragers

Egg/meat production - at least 3 eggs a week on the low end (most produce at least 4 a week) & good feed to meat ratio.

My most recent chicks who are still indoors till I'm able to get everything situated for them.

⬆️ Basil, Paprika. ⬆️ Pepper

I keep my band-aids, gauze wraps, and ointments in the bathroom cabinet. The cough medicine, pain meds and other oral meds I keep in one kitchen cabinet. Vitamins are kept in the spot between my microwave and fridge on a small tray. I keep oral meds in the kitchen so I can use drinks to help swallow them down.

recently saw ppl discuss whether they put their medicines in a kitchen cabinet or a bathroom cabinet and i was shocked by the fact that many ppl said kitchen cabinet. so now i need you to reblog this and say where you keep yours

Gave the animals a pumpkin today and most is going to be set up tonight for wildlife. I'll try to get some pics of deer and other animals eating it.

🎉It's my birthday!!!🎉

I'm officially a year older than I was yesterday!

Not having a big party or anything, I'm just gonna go out with my Momma, Daddy, little brother, and Mema to eat.

So unfortunately my dog killed one of my hens today. It was my Easter egger. Her body was mostly untouched but her head and neck were gone. I didn't want her to go to waste so I boiled and plucked her and she's in the freezer.

She laid one last egg before she got killed so it's in the incubator. I've ordered some more eggs and I'm expecting them to come in around Feb 1st. So we'll see if her last egg hatches. Curry also laid today so I've got her egg with the other so they'll hatch at the same time.🤞 it'll be about 21 days till the first eggs hatch but I'll keep yall posted.
