norfolk flyer 208 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Clare, Well done, I know last year at Newark sale all I kept being asked for was BB hens, no one seemed to have any, So hang on to this one and try and breed from her. Trevor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare L 175 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Without a doubt Trevor, Its taken me along time to get this. I was breeding splits this year in the hope I could produce some next season, so I'm extremly happy about this. She is a couple of months old now, I waited until certain until posting. But one good thing I have plenty of unrelated split BB cocks to choose from, maybe even a full BB by the end of season CLare Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
