    Silkie thread!

    Hi Paintfeathers. Just checked her and there's no egg in her. I think it could be a light factor as they are getting a little daylight but not great. I've just started putting a normal spotlight on them for 4/5 hours a day. Only day 2 so don't expect to see alot of difference. She does seem...

    Silkie thread!

    Thanks for your suggestions painted feathers. I'm new to Silkies and these are my first pair of show quality so I want to make sure they are getting looked after properly. I'll not bother with the UV bird light in the meantime. I also have Malaysian Serama and they are o.k indoors. The...

    Golden Polish hen or roo?

    My Polish does have little horns instead of normal comb. I think this is normal for a polish from my research. Should I be able to see these if it is a hen?

    Golden Polish hen or roo?

    Thanks. I'm kind of hoping its a hen. Is there anything that shouts out it is a roo? The crest isn't big at all. Also no spurs, no wattles. The crowing part is the main thing. Is there anything else I should look at for?

    Golden Polish hen or roo?

    Hi, this is a front view of my Polish chicken. As you can see, no spurs, now wattles. Crest isn't particular big. It has started doing a kind of crow everyday usually 6am and after 7pm. At 15 weeks, too young to be laying so can't tell if a hen or roo. I have asked the breeder and...

    Golden polish hen or Cockeral?

    Hi can anyone help me with sexing my golden polish? I was sold this as a hen. The age is around 15 weeks Old. A few mornings ago she started crowing at 6am and late Evenings. She goes around challenging my full size Hens. She doesn't have spurs, or long wattles. I will try and attach...
