11852 11848 Hi Paula! I did love the EO's and was working with just them. but, I really missed the Show scene. ( call me crazy) so I wanted a breed that needed a serious breeder to pick them up.

Buckeyes
Robbie: That is great to hear! Those slow feather/ maturing birds can be frustrating. But, once they start to fill out it is a wonderful gift. My hens at the moment look, how do I say it< TERRIBLE>.

I have even devel...
