One of the greatest breeding hens I've ever owned. From first year, breeding a son to win 1st 300 and 11th Champion Bird, All Boston Concourse, to a son that has already bred 5 combine winners in tough, double combine releases, and large birdage. Golden Davina is amazing.
(I loaned / lost her original Evans pedigree.)
She layed 8 good eggs in 2023, mated with my #1 cock - that's how reliable she's been. All those babies were healthy and full of vitality.
She has had a 7-day course of Baytril tabs (her first ever enrofloxacin - just to "clean out her reproductive track from any STDs, as some say - she's been with so many mates) in December, plus Ridzol, Miracle Life, and Moxidecting this month. Vaccinated for PMV/Rota + Paratyphoid. She's never been sick, or ever looked 'off'.
One of the best breeding and handling hens I've ever owned. Steve Cappellini graded her a 10 and exclaimed about her great muscle - which she has never lost, when she arrived out of quarantine in Boston. She fiercely defends her space - even a new nestbox or perch. I love that in a hen.
I highly, highly recommend you get the Perfect 8295 cock to mate to Golden Davina. I got him back with the intent to mate with her, but I am cutting back to 12 pairs and stocked too many children and grandchildren. I have bred her to Perfect Blood several times - and it clicks; very potent for breeding breeders of breeders. Golden Gaby and Davina, her parents, were among the very elite of Mark Evans Vandenabeele breeders.
