    What do you think of my Serama Boy?

    They’re so cute! I do think the frizzle is a little bit better structure wise, but I love the upside down U (that the tail feathers are supposed to have on the females) the other girl’s tail feathers make. If only she held that tail better. I see green legs on the frizzle. I think that’s a DQ...

    Sounds like Ursula. Wants to go broody every three months, sticks around for 5 weeks if she’s alone, if she’s co-brooding, she starts weaning at 3:th. Galadriel is far calmer with her weaning that what I’m used to with the bantams. She still tidbits here and there, still roosts with them, still...

    What do you think of my Serama Boy?

    Oh, his head looks great there! A lot of show lines have very sickly skulls, his looks great! He’s got good legs as well. An expert might find some sort of fault, but I love them! Serama should not have tiny legs; they are not Japanese bantams! Their legs should be medium in size, and able to...

    What do you think of my Serama Boy?

    Aha, I was not far off! I was guessing 5 and a half months old. Definitely ignore comments about the comb and the head then; he should fill out some more over the winter. Well, here’s the thing. I’d say yes. But I don’t know your exact goals, nor what the girls look like. Remember that any...

    What do you think of my Serama Boy?

    Thanks for the tag, Tink :) ! I have not studied the serama standard extensively, just enough to be able to gauge where my birds are at. I’ll do my best. @allosaurusrock is the true serama expert! How old is he? I’m assuming he’s rather young. Are these pictures indicative of how far he is...

    Tax, as promised. Galadriel seems to have somewhat weaned the kids. She’s not actively clucking or protecting, but still does everything else. 12 weeks of devoted care! They got their first outing yesterday. Shorter than I (and they, I’m sure) would have liked

    Looks gorgeous, but. Meanwhile I’m complaining with a single thunderstorm:rolleyes:.

    Rooster Courting Behavior

    This seems like a good resource for you. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/understanding-your-rooster.75056/ The “rooster dance” is far from the only way roosters initiate mating, and is definitely not the only correct way (and in my personal experience, very rarely does it end up in...

    Oh I’m so sorry Perris :hugs . Losing a bird like that is absolutely devastating. She had an amazing life with you, and you’ll have all her wins and gorgeous photos to remember her by

    Congratulations @HiEverybirdy and Stilton on getting featured on the BYC calendar! If there is one person (and chicken) who truly deserve it, it’s you with your incredible photos (the best chicken photos I’ve seen), and your “muse” Stilton. We all love reading his stories, and seeing all his...

    Maybe, possibly, we don’t know yet:lol:. Huernia hystrix. Yours is Huernia zebrina, right? I love that one. Ok, so very standard succulent care. Good to know. A lot like the stapelia/orbea variegata. What are their growing rates like? Root system? One thing about transitioning to terracotta...

    Jener8or, do I remember correctly that you have a Huernia in your collection? If so, I would love some tips :D
