faverolle

Another question about our odd little faverolle. All of our hens are past laying age (all the same age too) but when I went to go check on them, I saw the faverolle sitting in one of the nesting boxes (which they haven't touched in a while) Could she be starting to go broody again? Last time...

Both of these chicks are from Atwood’s. I have a possible idea about what breed Boisdarc might be (D’uccle?) but I really don’t seem to have a clue about Mimosa.. I was thinking Faverolles, but she only has 4 toes!

Hey there! I am new to keeping chickens and am about 10 weeks in with a mixed flock started from day-old chicks. I’m learning their personalities and pecking order and everybody seems to be doing well. BUT... I’ve noticed one of my 2 salmon faverolles has chronically wet/scruffy muff/beard...

Just posting for the first time! My name is Jenna and I am a self-proclaimed crazy chicken lady. (My husband agrees) My family had chickens when I was growing up, and I always thoroughly enjoyed them. Now that I am a little older, I have started a flock of my own. My specialty is Salmon...

I purchased a Faverolle chick at my farm store. I think they get their chicks from Meyer hatchery? They claim to sell sexed pullets. Anyways, I noticed that an adult Faverolle Roo have black breast feathers. What about my chick? Is it possible that its a roo instead of a hen??? I'm new to...

hi folks! I live in the Pacific Northwest (Vancouver Island) and anyone who has come up to Seattle, or across the border into Vancouver or been to Vancouver island knows it’s a damp and green place. As someone who is building their coop and researching what kind of chickens to get for their...

Auguat is now 145 days old. 21 weeks old 4 months 23 days to be exact. I have gone back and forth and gotten several strong opinions for why she is a he or he is a she. August clucks puxks and purrs August honks loudly like a goose. August bellows out a creeky scratchy elevating squack...

3 months old. I honestly have no idea what this is, but I had got a group of salmon faverolles and one turned into this, so unless its a breed that just got in the wrong bin, its a faverolle Rooster right? It looks like a dark brahma too I think...

My August a Faverolle mix is just o er 2 and 1/2 months old now. Recently her chirps have had random clucks inbetween them. Sometimes she sounds like a goose with a random honking sound. Is this the normal progression of sounds for a chick her age? Next, at whay point do I introduce a nest box?

August is now 2 months old. 62 days to be exact :) Any guesses on breed mix and gender?

I am starting a flock of Salmon Faverolles because I read they are a wonderful dual purpose breed. I am hoping they will be as good on the table as they look. I know they are a heritage breed so they are not ready to dress in 8-12 weeks. My flock do not eat that much feed like I thought from...

Hey faverolle folks. Just wondering what gender this chick is. My gut y says cockerel ... dark feathers, heavy and big legs but just wondering. I have TOOO many cockerels. It would be nice to have a hen lol

So last year I hatched some french faverolle eggs in an incubator and knew 100% sure which chicks were male and female before they turned two weeks old. This year, not so much. The man I bought the eggs from bought a new rooster and apparently his kiddos are much harder to sex. Their "mom" is...

Just had to share some pictures of my morning... My order from McMurray Hatchery is in. I ordered 12 Speckled Sussex, 6 Columbian Wyandottes, 7 Pearl White Leghorns (of which there are actually 8, they sent an extra. And then the rare chick that I now think is a Sultan. All chicks alive and...

Hi everyone! I have been searching high and low for Bantam Salmon Faverolles! I finally found some eggs for sale on Ebay, but didn't have any luck hatching any. Does anyone know anywhere to get hatching eggs, chicks, adults, etc? I have two hens, so I really want to find or hatch a male, and of...

Hello, my 2 y/o Faverolle, Jonesy, has stopped laying recently. She hasn't given me an egg in about 2 weeks. I am very concerned about this as she has never stopped laying before, she usually gives me an egg every 2-3 days, (this is because Faverolles aren't very strong layers in the first...

Hello! I have dabbled in an out of this forum for a while now gaining tips and help so i've decided to become a fully fledged member. I have nearly 30 chooks and cockerels of various breeds , some Creme Leg Bars (love the blue eggs) Wyandotte's (standard and bantam) Vorkworks (hatched in the...
