We found a breeder and bought six week olds! One is a blue laced red Wyandotte and the other is a gold laced Wyandotte. He assured us they are female!hope he's right! They are quarantined in the house till at least the end of the month.
Have you tried listing him on Craigslist? We just rehomed our EE roo last weekend with the nicest coup,e who have a huge new coop in the country. They send us pictures of Francisco and we can go visit anytime. Give it a try! Best of luck. He's handsome!
There are chicken farmers all over Norco. Not sure what the laws are but chickens everywhere there. Got our silkies at Amber Waves Silkies in Norco. Headed to Sunny Side Up Ranch in Norco tomorrow to take a look at some hens. It's chicken heaven in that town! Even emus!
Our silkies are 15 weeks and our one remaining buff brahma is 16 weeks. I'm pretty sure one of the silkies is a roo becaus of the crowing today and I think I see some spiky head feathers. His comb is growing and the other silkies comb isn't.
Thanks for he tips. I appreciate it. We will visit...
Lol! I love your chicken math! Thanks for all the tips and pointers. We pretty much have year round summer in SoCal...its 85 today! I wonder if we have a true winter in the mind of a chicken? The amount of daylight is different but temps don't change that much. I think my son, who is the head...
Hi all,
My son hand raised four chicks, which seems to be the ideal flock size for our backyard. One of his chicks is a cockerel and is going to a beautiful new home in the country where he will be the sole king of the roost this weekend. We ar devastated because he's our favorite but I know he...
Yes, I've read this. Winnifred looks different than our other silkie chick though with the spiky feathers and what looks like a comb forming. Just hoping for confirmation from some of you experts. I've found a lovely new home for our Easter Egger cockerel and if Winnie is a male then perhaps the...
Wow that’s really ridiculous. I’d be upset about that. I’m in suburbia so no chickens allowed at all. However my location is ideal with no joining neighbors to our property and a 6’ wall. They are super quiet too... until last week when Francesca started to crow. I think I’ve found him a...
Boy do we have bad luck picking out hens! I think Winnifred is a cockerel... what say you? Splash Silkie approx 15 weeks old. I’m seeing the beginnings of a comb and spiky freathers on back of his head.
