Poultry Talk Ontario (pto.ca)

How is everyone doing with their hamps? Many hatched out? I only did a small hatch in early April to give me some to choose from for fall shows. Planning on hatching another 30 or so in late july so I have lots of choice come winter

Who is going to Odessa on june 3rd? I will be there with my new hampshire bantams, what is everyone else bringing? Was a really nice show last year and after the fall show was cancelled would be good to see lots of entries!

@Giffen Farms try using rabbit or pig shaped feeders. I have a bunch left over that i bought used for my coop if you want them.

This has to be the best part about owning poultry, my pen 3 hens free ranging by the garden

Thanks everyone, yes Baron he is a bantam new hampshire, I have wittled down to just bantam new hamps for now

Really like this fella, maybe take him to odessa in june, probably should have gone to paris last weekend but oh well

As a dairy farmer the biggest challenge we have is staying large enough to float the big bills (feed, hydro, shavings/sawdust are our biggest bills) and it is next door to impossible to find good realiable help.

Just logged on for the first time in a long while, thank you everyone!

Speaking of millpond, I talked to Wilf yesterday and he said the first hatch date is april 5th, they need eggs to them by noon on march 14th so they can be trayed before going in the incubators, I will be going on the 13th if anyone wants me to pick eggs up!

Try Doug Batty for new hamps
