I have 1 really nice pair of Barred Rock L.F for sale. They are about 16 weeks old now and come from very good lines. Look like they are going to have lots of size and the barring is good. Some of the best exhibition quality barred's that I have seen around these parts in quite a bit and at 16-17 weeks weeks the pullets have just satarted to lay.I can e-mail pics. of the cockerels as I am not computer savvy enough to post them. I would like 75.00 for the pair. E-mailing is always better or you can PM me

Miry Creek if you are willing to wait till November I have a special pair for you!!

Viczoe/ Heather

How often do you get your hands on these Heather? I have been searching for some show quality BRs. Was worried I was going to have to bring in eggs from who knows where? They have nice ones in the UK. Hard to find ones with proper type! Theyre always so small!

Doublesr- I bought in a small number from Modern17 when I was getting a single bird of a different breed from him. When I brought them in I had no intention of keeping them but thought I would help people out at this end of the country, by keeping them and culling though them as well as putting pairs together that I think would work together. So after these are gone that's it. The males are aready showing good size and type. and I have culled out the one showing the least promise. I am quite frankly very excited by them but I have no desire to have another L.F breed due to room but if I thought I had the room these would not be leaving my place. I will ask someone Iknow who has pictures of the boys if she would mine posting them.

Heather can you email me pictures? I can then post them on here as well. I might be interested but not sure how to get them from you to me...

Heather says these pictures are from 14 weeks old, I think they are just gorgeous.
Anyone coming from her direction to mine and could transport a pair for me?

Jayme, if there is a way to get them to me I will get them to you.

They are beautiful birds...November seems like a long way off but I guess I have to wait...

Mirycreek, don't cry as it will be worth the wait, I hope that's O.K with you?

Heather

Miry I have received birds from Viscoe before. It is definitely worth the wait!!!!!! Lou

Some of the best barring I have seen on rocks here. Would love to see pictures of the pullets too!
Nice to see you here Heather.

Yes November will be fine Heather!
I will be looking forward to them though...

Wow that is a stunner of a cockerel!

I will try to get pictures of the females soon. I only have 3 pairs but would like to get down to just one in the near future as I want to ensure there is no crowding. The pictures really don't do them justice and it was wonderful of Modern 17 Troy Laroche to send some this way along with a lone Modern Cock bird that I got from him. My sole aim is to try and allow people access to birds of better quality whenever possible. I think I am asking a fair price as they are growing and eat like horses compared to my Leghorns. As I look at the females I see 2 which have great type and nice broad backs and 1 that I think may be above average and one that is average but even the average one is better than most production stock. Jayme let me know if your interested and we will have to see about getting them to you.

It is nice to be here too Coopslave a kinder, gentler forum. Thanks Jayme for posting the pictures for me

Heather

Yes if we can find a way to get them to Kelly or even out towards Calgary I would love a nice pair Heather. I know I can always get stock from Miry down the road but would be nice to have some of my own.
If you get pictures of the hens please do send them to me I dont mind posting them at all.

After the puppy pictures Coopslave just posted we might have to make a trip out that way...soon....

I know what you mean, I have been thinking about those puppies as we are looking for a dog as we speak, but have not made the big leap yet. Puppies are work and I have 17 ducklings giving me enough poop right now.
It would be better for each of you to start with your own as, though the blood will be the same you will each keep birds for slightly different qualities, so you will be able to trade birds and not have to worry about bringing in new blood for several years if at all.
