I got some new seramas, call ducks, and black east indies ducks at PPBA, so now I want to show off some of my flock, including the new birds and birds I've had for a while. I was going to include other poultry of mine, but this post is so photo-heavy as it is that I think I'll do a separate post for that and leave this one to just seramas, east indies, and call ducks! I hope you enjoy looking through them. Several of these birds are looking for names, please suggest some if you think of any!

My new serama rooster, Nova. I love his coloration, it's amazing! He has nicer type than shown in the pictures, too. I had been looking for just the right serama rooster to add to my flock for a while, and the second I saw him I knew he was the right rooster for me!

His comb got a little beat up before I bought him, he had a small scuffle with his brother.

These pretty girls need names:

Hen 1:

Hen 3 (she seems to be something like a dun splash!):

This cockerel is from my own birds, his color is likely going to change and get prettier and prettier as he feathers out. His tail is big, it's funny how it sticks straight up! He doesn't have a name yet either.

Hanabi! I don't know what this color would be called but it's very, very pretty!

This is Butterscotch! I think her color would best be described as white-laced wheaten. So gorgeous!

Miranda, some sort of silver birchen type pattern?

Inca, who looks somewhat silver penciled. I LOVE her intricate patterning!

I got this TINY serama pair at the show. They are still young so they're not done with their colors, but I don't think they're going to get a lot bigger than they are. They're currently living in a pen in the house.

They don't have names yet! I'm happy to finally get some truly tiny seramas, these two amaze me every time I look at them. And their type is much better than it looks in the pictures!

Charming, the mother of many of the birds above!

And Splash, also a member of the original serama trio I bought and mother of many of the seramas above. She's broody again but I'm not wanting chicks right now, so I may take the eggs away.

I just had to include Chiffon, she's the buff one in the picture above. I didn't get any good pictures of her this time! The other two in the picture are Miranda and Inca.

This young, handsome pure white fellow is looking for a home! He's nowhere near done growing in his feathers, he's going to have much better type when he has matured more. He's a bit dirty, sorry about that.

This tiny pullet is going to look just like her mom, Charming! She is also looking for a good home.

This was my beautiful girl, Magpie... She unfortunately fell ill and passed away despite my best efforts trying to save her. I miss her, she was so gorgeous and sweet...

She passed away last week.

My first pair of black east indies! They are absolutely gorgeous. The hen was a bit dirty in the pictures. I'd love some suggestions on names for them!

I added a new trio of call ducks as well! One male who looks almost black with a white bib but is not in fact black (he's sort of like a dark chocolate...or something?
hu.gif
), one black hen with a white bib, and one blue fawn hen. I think I have names for them, just trying to decide for sure.

I unfortunately couldn't get better pictures of them because they kept going where I couldn't photograph them! My other pair of call ducks is a lovely butterscotch pair, I just adore them!

My butterscotch pair because I love them:

I hope you like my seramas and bantam ducks! I just adore them all, they are so wonderful. I think I have finally reached a point where I will not be seeking more chickens for now, my flock just feels so right as it is. Thanks for looking!

Thank you! I just love him! He's a little larger than most serama roos and doesn't have yellow legs, but throws small, gorgeous babies and most of them have yellow legs, too. He is so sweet, friendly, and treats his hens very well. He's just wonderful.
 
Love the Butterscotch calls! I believe they will be on my wishlist for the future.
Working on Serama flock right now. Your Serama have some beautiful coloring!
 
Thank you, everyone! I just love my calls and east indies. I saw the butterscotch color at a show last year and just fell for it immediately. It's still my favorite call color, even after looking at a lot of beautiful calls. My pair are very outgoing and have funny personalities.

And the black east indies are amazing in person, their green sheen is so strong! So far they have been a bit shy, but they are warming up to me more and more.

And yes, the crazy colors are a wonderful thing about seramas! I've been so happy with all the oddball colors I've gotten, they are gorgeous.
 
You're birds are beautiful and look very well cared for.
I'm sorry you lost Magpie-she was adorable.

Thank you both, I agree! I think my birds are just gorgeous. I often sit just to admire them! And yes, they're totally spoiled! All of my chickens get names (though sometimes the names come slowly because I like for them to have the right names) and aside from the few I find homes for, everyone lives out their full lives with me.

By the way, the white serama cockerel found himself a wonderful home today. He's going to have nineteen girls all to himself!
