I don't think the majority of them are like that. Mine are always very sharp looking, well groomed, if you could call it that. I have 5 SLW and they never have dirty or marred butts. I love to watch the color developed as the get older. Maybe it was just because they weren't raised right, being...
I was so lucky to get my flock! A friend of my husband's who was his fishing and hunting mentor, and was getting up there in years decided he could stand to give them away so he could have some peace and quiet on his mornings, gave them to me, along with a huge, gorgeous rooster, who (besides...
I got an email on my phone yesterday saying that I had received an ovation. I tried to look on my phone and it denied me permission, so I tried on my tablet and again I was denied. I appreciate the thought and wish I knew how to view it!
My pullets are about 6 months old now. Should they be...
The Favorelles are really lovely chickens. No wonder you want to get some. Aren't the roosters magnificent? Now that I know what breed I have, I want a rooster lol. Jbk
Thank you, Teila, for the advice on how to post pictures, since Dragonthehunter immediately knew what I have. I also have two Polish, hen and cockerel, and call the hen Ghost and the rooster Smoke. Ghost has a beautiful topnot, but Smoke's is pretty raggedy looking, as though some of the...
Hi,Debbie, I think we joined BYC on the same day.. sorry about the loss of your birds. When I first got all mine this summer, I originally had four Lavender Orpingtons, five Silverlaced Wyandottes, what I was mistakenly told were five Light Brahmas (thanks again, Dragonthehunter!) Which turned...
Oh, my gosh, thank you, thank you, Dragonthehunter, for letting me finally know what I have in my coop! It was really quite thrilling to have an answer to a burning question. They are just identical to my girls, and the standard was spot on. Five toes, feathered legs and tufted cheeks. I was...
I really hope I did this right. If the pictures show up, you can see that my pullets have five toes, feathered pink legs, and cheeks with tufts such as those on Aracaunas
I don't have a computer, but my sister does. I'll ask her if she can show me the way you explained, because I only have a small tablet and it doesn't come up at all like that. And I don't know a Simon, this tablet seems to think I don't know what I'm talking about and corrects me constantly. So...
I fon't understand how anyone can not like chickens! For me, they'really better than TV. I can go out and sit on an upside down bucket and be happy for hours. My husband indulges me and and has built my coop and bought me a large enclosure for them, and comforted me when I lose one, but he's...
Can any one tell me how to get to the area where you can post pictures for What Breed? I don't know what a URL is and that't what it asks me for. Not at all tech savvy. I feel like an idiot because it took me all afternoon just to find my posts again. So if you know, could you please send me...
