Quote: That's a blue salmon bantam cockerel. Your expertise is much appreciated Want me to stop by for that LF pullet?

Hatched about mid July, this one is the only one of the batch of this color. Thinking a rooster but what's the color? In the incubator I had LF and bantam.. I am not sure but could be one of the 4 bantam that hatched. Not really that much smaller than the other rooster chicks that I know for...

Quote: Why not just PM or e-mail her and ask if You can be put on her list for eggs or birds or ????? White is beautiful...I don't think there are a whole lot of Favarolles in general at shows compared to other breeds.....But it seems they are gaining popularity and that may change...

Quote: The description you give makes me wonder that if in the future you may consider hatching shipped eggs of this breed if you need more. I have recently hatch another batch of LF Salmon Fav's and have 9 peeps in the brooder. I should be able to sex them soon. I have another batch going...

In the group of chicks that hatched this past week I have a LF Fav and I believe a Bantam Fav that each have a dark back. The one is very prominent the other a much smaller spot. I better keep notes and a photo diary to chronicle the change in appearance from peep to maturity. The very dark...

Hatch started last Saturday and was done by last night. It was a mixed group of eggs so that was the reason for the early additions. It was nerve wracking but still got my hair and the brooder is a mix of Large Fowl and bantam Favs with a few other friends that hatched with them.

I have a dozen LF Salmon Fav in the incubator at the moment. Expected hatch data is Wed. This is Fanny, I am hoping she will have some pullet friends from the hatch. She is the lone prima donna pullet from the May hatch. There are 4 cockerels from that group that keep her company.

I keep telling myself "No more roosters".. but that white rooster is just beautiful! My hand would go up to volunteer to take him if he was much closer. So how recessive is the white gene in the breed? With horses it's dominant and is a masking gene that will cover the horses natural...

Peter I don't know you personally but your heartfelt description of the situation and the feelings for your beautiful bird family come through in your words of loss and I am so sorry. Hopefully the vet can help you devise a plan where you can keep your fledglings recently hatched and they can...

If anyone is interested in trying to sex some peeps for fun the hatch from the 14th is broadcasting this evening. There are 7 Salmon Faverolles in the brooder. I have my hunches as to sex but I can also be very wrong Chicks in the brooder Post your guesses and time will tell...

Quote: For the record ... I like your style As friends have said more than once about me.. I am a breeder at heart and I am hardest on my own stock. Of course that's when I was breeding Champion Andalusian horses for many years. Now I have turned my attention to chickens and the...

Quote: That is such a wonderful facility. I always enjoy stopping and looking. It's nice to hear there is also a purpose to their project of adding live chickens besides tourist interest. Now I'll have another reason to visit They'll be like family.

Quote: eta: "last hatch" you say, huh?? I've never heard such words and have no concept of what that means!! I am so undecided! There sit the incubators all quiet and my little voice says to put them away... In the brooder are 7 adorable Fav peeps. I keep thinking I need one more batch

Quote: Oh so adorable.... is the museum taking all of the Fav's that hatch or do they want a hen / roo ratio?

I just think all of my chicks are so cute and can't tell roo from hen at this point. I am happy that I can raise them all up and decide later who is a rooster. If anyone wants to see they are broadcasting on their peep channel. Fav peeps and friends the darker chicks are two mystery...

The Faverolles I hatched a week ago are in the brooder and very busy. They have a few hatching buds to keep them company. No real close ups but its fun Paddock Garden Farm - Peeps

Of the 10 set 7 hatched, all are doing well. Still getting their land legs under them. So far this is their best look still on the inside looking out...

New to the breed, I just sent money for a family membership to support the clubs efforts.
