    Review by '' on item 'Australorp'

    Hearty friendly chicken. Ours like to be around the more mellow birds while the meanies go out and forage, although sometimes they'll join the group. Ours don't have much human contact but do alright when I need to pick them up and inspect them. Ours are a little clumsy but all in all a nice...

    Review by '' on item 'Silkie'

    I have 4 Silkies, 2 roos and 2 hens. Our 2 hens are the consistent, "backyard chickens" who come running to the gate behind me bocking all the way after letting them out. Our little black silkie is a bit spoiled as in she'll stand at the glass doors staring at us begging while we eat our meal...

    Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

    Thank you for the info. The picture does seem unclear and hard to figure out what's going on there. I went out to the coop before your message and had put some vaseline on his legs due to some studying on the possibility of mites. It keeps looking like it's getting worse. Feel so bad for the...

    Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

    Hey all, My French Copper Maran rooster Henri is dealing some issues with his legs. The picture below will show it a bit. So there is areas where the feathers are coming out that look extremely painful and even inflamed. The reason I'm questionable about scaly leg mites or something else is...

    Sad day after a predator attack... advice needed

    I'm terribly sorry for your lost. I'm pretty certain Big Mama if given the love you already give her will recoop and be back especially if you bring some pullets in. You may want to wait a while for her though as she is probably still traumatized. Chickens are flock animals and do better with...

    Help with French Copper Maran roo, "Henry"

    Hey Kevin, I was wondering because I had seen mites before, but never on my flock. Not sure if the picture shows clearly enough, but where the feathers are coming through on his feet, it looks painful. However I believe there's something more to it then that. I forgot to mention earlier also...

    Help with French Copper Maran roo, "Henry"

    Hey all, My roo Henry has been limping around for the last couple weeks. It started I thought when he jumped off the perch to tell the hens it was bedtime. At least this is when I first started noticing his limp. I took a few pictures and not sure if anybody could go off whether this is...

    Thank you all for your warm welcomes! Believe after this post i can put up some pics or at least a profile picture. To sewandgrow: I used to just walk by the chicken's at the fair but now I'm such a fan I'd probably stop and look in each cage. I will probably try and make it to the show being...

    Whats your Favorite Breed?

    Never thought I'd be saying this someday but my egyptian fayoumis are really growing on me. They're very flighty/squawky/unpleasant to others. They do look out and warn the flock frequently and are very energetic timid birds but probably some of the funniest comedians I've seen in a long time...

    My silkie journal! (will post new pics regularly) *NEW pic*

    Silkies are the coolest. When they look at you with those big black eyes and tilt their heads is the greatest. I have 6 that were straight run and ended up with 4 roosters.. Pretty sure they're all keepers even though i've only gotten a couple of them to be lap chickens. Have fun with your...
