    Chicken Breed Focus - Brakel

    We never sold juveniles that I can remember. If you have some available though we unfortunately lost our only rooster in the snovid-21 fiasco and I would be interested in possibly getting some more.

    Serama Bantam Tips

    A closed in coop with a lamp is plenty. We have had one get frostbite but that was because he refused to go in at night no matter the temperature. In the end it makes the comb look a little funky but doesn't hurt them overall if it does happen.

    Serama Bantam Tips

    We raise serama in Central Texas. Those few days it gets into the teens at night they can get frostbite on the tips especially one with a larger comb like yours. If they have an insulated fully enclosed coop though it shouldn't be a problem. Our serama do just fine in the cold but some that we...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Brakel

    Very excellent. We do have a great availability of edible bugs and plants so i think that can depend as much on the range as the ranger.

    Rare Breed Wish List

    Brakel are here. I have some. The original import flock was destroyed by foxes but a few are still around.

    Chicken Breed Focus - Brakel

    I raise brakel here in Texas and love them. They are very reliable layers and the roosters are very protective. Pretty flighty and not one for human friendship much but great free rangers. Most of the year here they don't even eat chicken food as they stay busy foraging all day.

    If you could only have ONE breed?

    Seramas. Hardy, self sustaining, friendly, never know what you might hatch.

    Seramas and winter in NY?

    Smooth feathered Serama do fine at those temperatures. I am in Texas but have several Serama and one rooster in particular that has slept outside down to 10 degrees and no ill affects other than some comb frostbite. He refuses to go in at night and sleeps on a rock in the run. That being said I...

    Brahma Rooster Temperament

    I would say that rooster temperament is affected by circumstances quite a bit and they tend to be seriously bothered by toddlers. I have 5 kids and two still in the toddler stage. Roosters hate toddlers. I think the manic and unstable energy that toddlers give off tend to scare them so they go...

    American serama thread!

    Isnt the lethal short leg gene present from the Japanese that was used in creating serama? This causes approximate death at ten days if present in both adults.

    Serama housing Question

    Big plenty. They dont take much room.

    Serama housing Question

    I keep mine outside with little to no heat to about 15f. I have one rooster that refuses to sleep inside where the heaters are even when it's well in the teens. His comb has lost a few points from frostbite but other than that no ill effects. They are far more hardy than people give them credit...
