Icelandic Chickens - Page 1639

I'm looking into it guys. 

 

You most certainly do matter - there wasn't a choice on staying on the old platform, it was going to die in a big way.  We had no choice but to move and this was the best out there.

Okay, we had a big photo shoot today.

First pullet is one that I hatched from Mary (NotAFarm).

This is the second pullet from her.  This was the only one I got without a crest.

This is the first pullet from Mary (Sheriff), the crest is redder.

Second pullet from Mary, the crest is darker.

And now, the three boys, all from Mary (Sheriff).

I think this is the guy that's shaping up as our favorite.

The difference between breakfast and chicks, is the temperature you use to "cook" the eggs!

 

What breeds do I have?  More than any sane person would own.

Yeah, I saw that picture earlier and thought,"that was a feather or two, we have FEATHERS" gig.gif   He is the only one with leg feathering.  The white boy, he is my close second.  The dark boy is a bit more timid (not to mention he kept pecking me when I got him out for the photos).

so hard to choose...

I have 2 icelandic hens and two roosters. plus three young ones. will have to get pic's up of them. I am not sure if any are boys. they are way smaller than the Penedesenca's and my legbar crosses which are the same age. maybe half the size. I am sure two of the icelandic chicks are hens not sure about the other one that had the hurt leg ( my luck that one will be a boy)
