LMBO! Yeah, someone told me that it will take 7 yrs to get purebred. And that would mean I'd have to keep a baby of hers, get rid of her, keep that baby's baby and get rid of it. and vice versa. I have 2 people who've said they'd take her but I'm not driving 3 1/2 hrs, 7 round trip, to go to a...
Sometimes the chicks would get wet if they ran/walked thru their water dish, yes. I changed dishes and gave them something deeper so they couldn't just up and walk thru something more flat & shallow, but they still did it. Not as much, but.... The breeder I got the sebby from is NPIP and WI...
Chickens. I was talking about chickens. I just bought my first goslings and haven't lost any of them. I can certainly undertand and respect that everyone handles and raises them differently, so it could be a fault of the buyer. True. I had lost power for over a day and lost 11 chicks due to no...
krisg - what's funny is that I don't even have to use names. If someone's reputation is so bad that when you start talkign about them ppl automatically know who it is, then "I" am not the one ruining their reputation and giving them a bad name. They did it to themselves before I even came in the...
Hmm....very interesting information. Sounds like the same people. Someone else told me that a lot of ppl say their birds are Marek's vaccinated even when they're not, just b/c it sounds good and makes ppl feel more at ease when buying. Aren't you supposed to give out a vaccination certificate...
Well I do have some answers for you! I didn't know that she was selling someone else's bird. I didn't find that out until a week after I bought it. She never mentioned it, just had it on her sales list under her own name. I'm sorry, but if you're NPIP, can't you get in trouble for selling...
This is Space Ghost. She said she can't guarantee color or sex, but it looks to be a gray saddleback.
We think this one might be a white.
She said she thinks this one might be a buff.
And here is the one that was sold to me as a gray sebastopol but turns...
"The white variety of the Sebastopol is best known. There are also gray and buff color varieties." So there's no reason for me to have even thought for a minute that b/c it was gray that it was a crossbreed. See, that's what's so difficult/confusing about this. You have people on both sides...
Okay, wow, I wasn't expecting this, but the breeder's getting snotty with me b/c it's mixed w/a Toulouse and I said "What? You never said anything about this being a mixed breed! If I knew it, I would not have bought it b/c I don't want to breed mixed breeds into my sebbies. I just bought 3 more...

This was sold to me as a gray. I have since learned that there is NO WAY that is a gray. 1st because it isn't dark enough to be a gray, and 2nd because it would have a gray or black beak and feet. This one DOES have a bit of tinting on the beak, but most is around the edge by the face. What...
Because I didn't know that. I thought they only came in white. Then I saw that there were gray ones a few weeks ago and when I asked people if they came in any other colors aside from gray or white I was told no and that the gray ones are very hard to find. Well, I found one that I'm pickign up...
Question - is the sebastopol gene frizzle? Is that what it is? And is it a dominent gene? There were pics posted that looked like they may have been mixed with a saddleback pomeranian. Or is that a different variety/color of sebby's? I'm kinda wondering b/c I want both sebastopols AND saddleback...
I'm dying to get some sebby's! But first! How much room do they need? I'm afraid to let them free range due to preditors, do they do well in an enclosed space?
