While searching around for hoop house ideas for our broilers, I happened upon this article. It explains how to create an aluminized bubble insulation brooder....
I am so glad to see that a Dominique site has been added to Yahoo! I haven't had time to even go to Yahoo this past year. I did want to let you all know that...
Hi Tracey, AWelcome to the group... I'm happy to see you as a new listmember! The list has been quiet lately, but hopefully we can get some chatter going now...
Wow, things have been a whirlwind lately. I've had chickens for 3 years now, and had been in only 1 chicken group: Yahoo Henpecked in Bucks County, PA. Now...
Hi Christa, This is Greg. I joined just a couple weeks ago. Mrs. Tracey Allen, the secretary of the club, breeds chickens,but only in the spring. She put me in...
Christa, Are you a member of the Dominique Club of America? If not you should consider joining - I may be able to help you with initial stock in the spring of...
Hello Mr. Greg, How is your chicken housing construction going? I will leave for Indianapolis tomorrow and return on Sunday. I will get pictures of the...
Yes, definitely post pictures to the list! I'm not able to go either and would love to see the Dominiques and other birds at the show (and their owners, too...
Hello, Christa, I too have a laying flock of different breeds of layers. I have 5 Dominiques, 5 Buff Orps, 3 SL Wyandottes & 3 GL Wyandottes. Unlike Di's...
Hi Shana, Thanks for replying to my messages on both dominique_chickens and Chickens 101! I just read your reply on dominique_chickens. Your 2 hens sound cute....
Bryan, I just joined Dominique Club of America 3 days ago. I would be interested in getting some stock from you in the sprin. I also wondered if eggs could be...
Several people mentioned Cackle Hatchery as being good for Dominiques, but then Lily got a batch from them with straight combs, which would indicate that they...
I have both Standard & Bantams from Cackle. I bought my first Standard chicks from them about 4-5 years ago, and they all have rose combs, although my only...
Your best bet is to get stock from a Dominique breeder rather than from a hatchery. But if you do buy from a hatchery, Cackle birds aren't too bad. All of my...
Thanks for your insight. I had a feeling that a breeder was the best bet. I like to know where things come from anyway, where they get personalized care,...
It sounds like I should really consider Cackle Hatchery. I think I might get some American pullets also. They have a good personality, they're cute, and I love...
I meant to write "Americauna" not "American" LOL, I guess a lot of favorite breeds are American! -Christa ... <christa_bauman@...> wrote: "I think I might get...
Hi Christa, I am planning to get mine from Bryan Oliver. The rooster I got from Mcmurray was flat out ugly, had a humped back, lopped comb, and walked funny....
I have heard some bad things about Cackle and a few good things, but I've come to the conclusion that it must be a place where you try your luck. I'm not sure...
I meant to say all my Standard Dominiques have ROSE combs, not straight combs! Sorry for the mixup. :) A few of my Cackle bantams had straight combs, but the...

Hi to you Greg, Bryan Oliver told me he might have some available for me in the spring too. If he would send me eggs, I could hatch them myself, since I have...
Yes, I will post pictures when I return from Indianapolis. Take Care, BRYAN "Lily @ Othala Acres" <lily1013@...> wrote: Yes, definitely post pictures to...
Hi Christa, The Cuckoo Maran is not an Americana. It's a French Breed, but you could still call it a colored egg layer. They lay really dark brown eggs....
Christa, Yes, I could send you some eggs, but the problem with sending eggs is obviously the shipping process. It's my understanding from countless poultry...
Bryan, would you ship the chicks, or would I have to pick them up? I'm in Pennsylvania and am really busy in the spring in my family's lawn care business, so...
Greg, Were you able to get in touch with Gurney Davis concerning the bantams? The show was nice, very professional and the birds looked good - it's too bad...
