@4-Hgirl do you show chickens?
i love showing chickens! I have gotten Grand Champion Poultry at county fair in 2022 and 2023 this year I am going to show anywhere from 12-20 chickens and I have 40 chickens in my flock that is both bantam and standard. I have 23 standards and the rest are bantams

If you join KHSI, then you will get the magazine 4 times a year, you may find breeders near you. If you are going to move to registered Katahdins, you can use the ewes you have and breed to a registered ram.

I just figured out day-before-yesterday... Laney (the ewe I got on the deal) is a mix! She is 50% Katahdin and 50% Dorper!! That explains why the lamb born in March looks much better than both parents, because it is 25% Dorper, 25% Katahdin, and 50% Barbados, a three-way cross!!!
