Does anyone have these Standard Silkies from Saba? Are they really full size chickens or just larger than bantam? Still super broody?

Hello again. Years ago, I was very interested in getting some American Dominiques from you and even set up a possible meeting months into the future to pick up some juveniles. However, this was during the 2015 Avian Influenza outbreak that prevented birds from being transported across state...

Following!

This is just an idea, you all have me thinking, what about PVC pipe roosts with heating tape inside? You would likely need to rough up the surface of the pipe so the birds have traction. Heating tape is made to be right on the pipe so I would assume it is safe and the tape would be inside the...

They are pullets. What do you mean by redder? The color of the comb?

AGREE!!!

Looking for Dominiques if anyone has them for sale

Who will ship me some Dominique chicks? I want to get tons of different lines to pick from. Emphasis on free ranging and broodiness preferred but not required.

I would love to know what everyone thinks was going on here
