    the sultan thread

    Hey there, I don't think I've posted here before! I've been in love with this breed since I first saw them, and I hope to contribute to their preservation. I have a shipment of twelve from Waltz's Ark that are about six weeks, and they are curious, strange little birds. I just adore them! I'll...

    Campine Chicken thread?

    @Wisher1000 I'm in NC. I happened to see these up for sale on my local fb group and I jumped on it. The lady I got them from couldn't tell me where they'd originally come from. I'd like to breed gold and silver. I showed silkies and Hollands locally last year and then sold out. I'd like to try...

    Campine Chicken thread?

    And the other hen. The rooster got his tail and one side of his wing picked off before I picked him up, so he's pretty sorry looking.

    Campine Chicken thread?

    I picked up a trio of golden Campines a few days ago. I'm in love! I'm hoping to get some gold/silver eggs in a few weeks. Anyone have a source for chamois chicks or eggs though? I know they're rare but I'd love to get my hands on some.

    Blue Copper and Splash Copper Marans Discussion

    So I've got a question. I'm thinking about starting a blue copper project next year and I'm wondering if there's a difference between regular black copper marans and the black you'd get from bluexblue. Does it have any affect on the copper?

    pyncheon thread

    My guys are almost seven weeks, and the three I thought had green legs are blue. The rest are white. Anyone know who has yellow or green-legged stock? Here's a few pics of my chicks. There's not enough white on some and entirely too much white on others.

    Duckweed for the ducks?

    I have two buff ducklings, about six weeks old, and I've started leaving a tub of water in their run that's large enough for both of them to swim around in. Of course, they're ducks and the water turns brown the second they waddle into it. I'm considering throwing in some duckweed in an attempt...

    pyncheon thread

    That's really disappointing. I hatched some out a few weeks ago and I'm hoping to contribute to the breeding effort next year. I even have one or two with correctly colored feet. ;_; Someone somewhere has to have original stock though, right?

    What color is this?

    I'm trying to figure out what color my white silkie rooster is underneath. These chicks are out of two salmon faverolles hens he covered, and my friends and I are just stumped. I've never seen color like this! Some came out with heavy brown barring over black, and some came out with lighter...

    Roosters and hens not doing what roosters and hens should do

    We trimmed down one at the beginning of the season, but she was the fluffiest by far. Like, it took some serious searching to find a cloaca on her. None of the others had any such problems.

    Roosters and hens not doing what roosters and hens should do

    So my roommate and I have a little flock of silkies and we just decided to add some more roosters because our fertility rates have been low (One rooster over ten hens). We ended up with two pretty black boys with gorgeous beards and we seperated four or five hens and put them in with them. It's...

    Cream Legbars

    Got an egg this morning and the picture doesn't do it justice! It's the bluest egg I've ever seen up close, and absolutely huge (I'm probably too used to silkies, haha). A day late, but into the incubator it goes!

    Cream Legbars

    I'm about twenty minutes from Raleigh, NC. I honestly haven't kept many cockerels long enough to see spurs grow out that long, but it'd be pretty nice if he were a little younger. My roommates are convinced he's going to end up eviscerating me, so I suppose I'll have to have do something about...

    Cream Legbars

    I went to an auction this morning to pick up some cheap eggs for the incubator and accidentally bought a pair of cream legbars home! I've never had them before but I've been interested in the breed for a while and I just couldn't resist. I think the comb on the hen's a bit bigger than it should...
