    Frizzle... is this the right breed for me

    Oh...I didn't realize that the frizzle was not an actual breed, thanks for the info. The frizzle red sex link sounds like a hen that would really have the qualities I am looking for. Thanks for educating me now I can begin looking and researching so I can make an informed decision.

    Frizzle... is this the right breed for me

    I have owned laying hens (reds, orpingtons, wyandottes). I will be moving and I would like to start a small flock of 3 chickens. Here is what I am looking for: 1. It is very important that I have a quiet docile breed, neighbors will be closer than in previous home, smaller property. 2. They need...

    Question about orpingtons

    I owned two buff orpingtons and they were the most amazing friendliest chickens. They were quiet and docile which this breed is known for.

    Sick chicken help

    I hope she gets better. The only time I saw similar symptoms in one of my chickens was during a heat wave. Could she be suffering from being overheated. I know this week it has been brutal here. Are her droppings very loose? How about trying some unflavored pedialyte instead of her water. When...

    New coop

    Nice coop. It looks real sturdy. How many chickens do you have? I'm always impressed with people's building abilities. My husband is super handy. He can do alot of electrical and plumbing stuff, etc. He can handle almost any problem with the cars. But he admits that carpentry is not his...

    Loud chickens... Easter Egger....

    LOL..Thanks for the reply. I recognize that chicken scream. I had a red that was louder than any rooster. Anytime an egg was laid by anyone in the flock, she would celebrate and she wanted the whole world to know. I really love the personality of the buff orpington. I know this is stupid but I...

    Loud chickens... Easter Egger....

    I am moving into a smaller home with smaller property. Our neighbors will be closer to us then in my previous home. I always had chickens and would like to have a small flock at my new home. The concern I have is finding a breed that is quiet. I know the buff orpington is a quiet bird and I have...
