These days I'm pretty much all about coturnix quail. But I do have a few chickens.

Raven lines are from Banko stock as I understand it. They developed their line from those. Very black birds I have heard.

I am waiting for my fertility to increase in my flock. They are 100% Silkied from my own line, which I developed from eggs purchased from A Colorful Coop, mixed with chicks purchased from Marsha Tuttero last year. They are laying well, just not high fertility. I did recently switch out the...

Thank you for your response. I have been looking at poultry netting for a temporary grow out area, but the cost would be prohibitive. Would you be willing to PM me the details of your complete set up? Thank you!

How do you keep them from flying over? Do you clip wings?

In just spoke with her. They have had a power outage, but she got your message and will return your call soon.

Yes they were hatched this spring... Varying ages... I will hang on to the ones with the darkest mouths regardless of sheen. Toes, combs, wattles etc are all looking good on the keepers.

Yes in some of the Cockerels I am seeing it. I personally like it. But if I am going to breed what will become the acceptable standard to which my breeds must adhere to then I will not use those particular ones. MY original Rooster is amazing! I am hoping to have one of his sons make the cut as...

Yes in Ayam Cemani. I remember early on in these threads the purple was liked. So I was surprised when I read that. I also could not find it in the "standard" on the Ayam Cemani Breeders Club site.

this is the first time I have logged on here in ages. I spend most of my online time on the facebook chicken groups now. I am trying to go back on some of the older Ayam Cemani threads to find out some information. How have you been? @gimmie birdies ?

I have a question about feather sheen. What is acceptable? I recently read a comment on a facebook group where someone said anything other than green as in purple was not acceptable. Is this true?

I am looking for chicks or hatching eggs (preferred) from an NPIP breeder. Anyone still breeding?

No visitors here either! Just can't take the chances. I have only mostly lurked here on this thread. I have 1 Rooster and 1 Hen that are my original pair. I have added 1 Cockerel and 2 Pullets over a bit of time. I put the cockerel in with the two pullets who are new to laying and zip for...

My final numbers: 59 coturnix quail 3 Marans 4 isbar 1 Silkied Ameracauna For a total of 67 hatched.... Looking forward to next time. Shari..

I have noticed that. I have used it for almost a year and just adjusted. Thank you for giving me validation that is was off. I will lock down everyone today as normal.

A Showgirl is a naked neck Silkie. They can have beards & bowties . The whole neck naked is a stripper!! Lol

Anyone else use the Hatch A Batch app? I set my eggs both chicken and quail according to the dates here. The app is giving me totally different dates for lockdown and hatch. It's says quail should hatch on Thursday and chickens on Friday?? Not sure if I should lockdown today or not. Don't want...

After candling I pulled all my Ayam Cemani eggs for no development. I'm down to 4 Marans, 4 Silkied Ameracauna, 6 Isbar. I don't candle quail eggs do they are all still there.

@Hawk12 Here is a picture of sweet Zoe. She went broody and would not quit so I gave her some eggs to sit on. She was then joined on the nest by two others. At one point they were on 19 eggs! I candled and threw out 5. They started hatching one by one since they were spread out about 17 days...
