Brand new to ducks. Got 4 baby call ducks from @CaliFarmsAR. They are 5 weeks old now and I was wondering what these colors are called and if there are any distinguishing features to sex them aside from their quacks. The smallest/loudest is obviously a hen to me, She’s blue/brownish in color...

Have 7 Bruges Fighters coming from Greenfire on Thursday. I am very excited to get a flock of these going. The Liege fighter has become one of my favorites. (From GFF description) It is the oldest of the three native Belgian game fowl breeds having emerged in the early 1800s near the town of...

Looking to add some different colored Marans to my farm. Does anyone know of any good quality breeders of wheaten and/or white Marans. Thanks so much for any help! I would also be interested in anyone selling quality hatching eggs in these varieties.

I have a 12 week old Marans cockerel, he was a solo hatch in a small winter incubation fertility check. He seems to be pooping A LOT to me, I noticed a few days ago, and isolated him. Maybe it’s because he’s off in the sick cage but he seems to be making mounds of mealy/crumble colored poop...

I have an Isabelle Rooster over multiple different colors of hens in my English Orpington pen. I use these eggs for eating mostly, but was curious what color possibilities I could get out of these crosses.

My understanding of poultry genetics is pretty basic surface level. I am wondering if there are any possible color variations that my liege rooster could pass to male offspring, or if they will likely have a similar/same look as the father. I know there is probably a lot of factors that go...

I have some English orpingtons from Papas Poultry and am fairly happy with most of them. Looking for some good genetics to add to my flock. Anyone know of any good quality English Orpingtons, interested in any colors potentially. Been eyeing Carolina Rare Chicks some, just looking for any other...

Have some barnvelders probably around 10-12 weeks old. One of them is very small. Legs and face are pale, she eats drinks and gets around fairly normal though. I keep expecting to find her dead but she keeps up pretty Is she a runt? Genetic abnormality? Is she sick? the tiny one on the left...

Got these 3 ducks at Tractor Supply because I accidentally took my daughter to get chicken feed. 🙃 never had ducks, seem to be feathering out white and I have a guess. Just wondering if anyone can tell for sure what they are.

My mom got a couple of laying hens given to her by a friend. I was hoping to give her some info on their breeds. I believe the black one is maybe an Ameracauna or something? They got 2, grayish colored eggs today for the first time, I told that made me think of the colored egg layers. The dark...

I have a rooster who's eye has gotten gradually worse. I noticed it partially closed a few days ago, it has since closed to the point shown. I pulled the lid back and dont see any physical damage to the eye. It's just watery and seems to be swollen closed. I had another hen from the same pen...

I am new to the breed. I bought some breeders from a guy that shows them quite a bit. I was wondering what these little naked spots on their wings are? They have been like this since I got them and even scabbed up a little bit. They dont seem to be new wounds or anything.

I got some queen silvia chicks from Greenfire Farms about 5 weeks ago. Everyone was fine for the first couple of weeks. But over the last 3 weeks or so I have lost 5 chicks. They will all seem to be thriving one day. Then the next day I will notice on weak and not as alert. The next morning it...

I have some 4 week old Queen Silvia chicks. They are just starting to feather as bad I know this is an awkward time for chicks. These are looking extra scraggly to me for some reason. I looked over them thoroughly. No visible mites or lice. They eat medicated chick starter. I added Nutri drench...

13 Queen Silvia from GFF. Love the colors.

I have some barred bantam phoenix that I have been working with for a couple of years now. They are from boggy bottoms bloodlines and I was told that they achieved the color by breeding a silver duckwing phoenix with flytie birds. Even on their site the roosters have yellow legs rather than the...

I know we are in the midst of this summer heat and a lot of birds aren't producing as much. Was wondering if anyone selling anything at the moment. I have a couple of broody hens that I would love to let hatch something. Thanks

My 6 FLF Ayam Cemani chicks. Hoping for 2/4 Cockerel/Pullet. What do you guys think? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

So I got 6 straight run cemani from Feather Lover Farms. I know these may be tough but maybe you guys can spot a few. 1. I believe this is a roo. Nice long tail and only one starting to get that green sheen to his feathers. 2. Smaller. Slightly larger tail than some of the others. 3...
