I have not checked fertility since I got rid of my jungle fowl roosters and have only the three Rhode Island Reds. Once I am back on island I hope to finish the chicken enclosure that my young handyman has abandoned... guess he was too good to be true! We will let them breed and when I return from Thailand the end of August we will make a hatchery. Then I will have pure breed Rhode Island Red pullets for sale. My hens are all purebred that came out of the Waimea egg farm a year ago... so they are 3 years old. Their production is lower than one to two year olds but still good.
Contact me by September 1 and I will be happy to sell at very reasonable prices pullets. It is best for everyone to be able to sex them so you get what you are looking for. I keep my rooster population pretty thin. Plenty poor people want chicken to bbq. I don't like to slaughter and clean them but I am told that by peeling the skin off instead of plucking them, it is fast.... so if in 4 months anyone wants eating chicken/roosters.... we'll have 'em! Sounds like a BBQ ready to happen.

I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet
hit the floor each morning, the devil says
"Oh Crap, She's up!"
