[CHICKENS-101] Re: Green egg layers, asils

 

Hi Eric, I have pixs in photos under truly ranch. I started raising shamo 15 years ago in CA. and brought some with me to KY. In fact, I hauled a hen with a new hatch under her. She managed to raise all 8. I have had asils, in fact that is where the white comes from. I would brood those eggs to see what you get. Years ago, I had a friend given an egg which was suppose to be pure asil and it turn out to be a silkie cross. he was a total mess but one of the neatest cockerels I have ever met. He discovered the doggie door and would bring hens in the house to show them good places to make a nest. Carolyn

> Hi Carolyn, thanks for the reply. I've been breeding and raising several breeds of chickens for nearly 30 years. Mostly I raised and bred American Pit Games, creating two of my own unique strains that made me famous among the local cockers. I also had a few Asils for awhile and loved them and always wanted to get more.
