Are frizzle polish able to be shown as long as they reach SOP on all points? Can they just get best variety or can they win further up? I haven't seen any mention of them in the ABA SOP.

I have a white bantam Polish pullet and cockerel that was shipped across country from a very well respected breeder back in February. The cockerel is perfect in every way but the pullet has always had a bit of a head twitch when she gets stressed/excited which can be common in the breed so I...

So I have hatched and raised dozens of barn yard mixes and they always did so well. Well I've decided to get purebred Polish from a hatchery. Last week I had 25 shipped that arrived on my birthday....all dead. I was devastated. I called the hatchery crying and they apologized and sent a new...

My chicks are hatching!!! This is only my 3rd hatch and my first two weren't very successful but I learned from mistakes and hopefully fixed them. Anyways when two babies hatched tonight, I notice the inside of one of the shells had black spots? The chick seems fine but what is the black spots...

So long story. My rooster died, fueled by emotion I incubated eggs that were fertilized by him, and only one hatched and we named it Akea. Akea has been beyond spoiled as a pet. She was raised in our house getting full attention from us. As she got bigger, we let her run outside during the day...

Ok, so I was extremely happy with my little flock. I had my roo, my group of hens, everything was great...until an owl got my Roo. I was devastated. He was a "mutt" per say but he was beautiful and losing him hurt. So I did the most logical thing that a heart broken woman does, I got an...

Hello everyone! I am new to chicken farming. I have 6 Americanas and 2 Rhode Island Reds. Well in October I found an ad on Craigslist of someone giving away 4 chicks that were three days old for free. Being the cute little guys they were, I had to snatch them up. The guy said they were Marans...
