I really need Silver. And I don't want to wait for a chick to grow up. So I was hoping for a mature rooster. My roosters over the years have been very good natured.
I am in search of a Silver Spitzhauben Appenzeller Rooster. We are in Central Florida and lost alot of birds during hurricane Irma. I had several of my Silkies and frizzled Cochins drown in their coops. Lost a bunch of our "eating" egg layers and 3 of my Appenzellers which included my roosters...
Hi Everyone,
My little Sweet Pea has had some gentleman callers. These 2 beautiful boys showed up one day about 2 weeks ago and had our farm in an uproar. The Guineas and turkeys do not like invaders. They hung around for 2 days and left, but we could hear their calls off in the distance...
If that means he is happy, what does it mean when my one and only little girl "Sweet" does that too? She is so funny displaying and walking backwards, lol. I think she would like to walk forward but can not figure out how to do that and display at the same time. And sometimes she scratches the...
Hi Everyone,
I was hoping you could help me. I am looking for some black and white paint Silkie hatching eggs. I really love the bearded Silkies with the big spots. I am also interested in having a couple Showgirls in the mix. If I understand correctly, you can have paint and black in the same...
Here is a short video of our turkey Cleopatra. She is 1/2 Heritage Chocolate and 1/2 Royal Pam. We got her when she was about 4 months old. She is probably 9 or 10 months old by now. It did not take her too long to fit in with everyone else. She has always done hen calls and she clucks and...
Here some new pictures of Sweet, my 2 month old Peachick.
I was taking some pictures during her supervised free range time, but all she does is stick with me and her favorite place is on my lap nestled in the crook of my arm. I am not sure how this is going to work when she gets bigger, but I do...
Very pretty. Look close to the same age as Sweet. She was a rescue and an only chick , maybe 2-3 weeks old when I got her. She is pretty content to sit on my arm when I am walking or sitting. I hope she will always wants to be with me. My baby geese (who look full grown already) are 5 months old...
I was having fun with my little fashion Diva "Sweet" today and some of her friends. She is such a nice little bird and I enjoy spending time with her. I thought you might like to see some of the pictures we took today.
That would be great is Sweet is a hen. Alot easier to introduce her to all the other birds. If she was a boy, it may be harder with the big tom turkey and the male guineas may act up for awhile. Plus I seem to come across more Peacocks than Peahens, so it will be easier to get her a mate later...
Thank you for the confirmation on him being a blue. Yes, he is doing very well. He likes to hang out with me or be with his 2 little Blue Swedish duck friends in in the chicken tractor when it is nice outside. When he gets big enough, I will let him free range with e ducks, geese, guineas and...
Hi Everyone, Here is a little update on my one and only peachick, "Sweet". He is just starting to get some colored feathers. Someone thought he was an India Blue, but he seems to have green feathers coming in. Is that normal for a blue bird to have green feathers come in or is he really a green...
I do have a postal scale, now I have to find it again. I just moved my home office and alot of things are going out into the hatchery, so I just have to figure out which box it is in. What a good treats for Peachicks? Besides the gamebird starter, the only thing he has had is live meal worms. Do...
