Look at Little Miss Cyn and her broody self. It's been ages since I've been on here. I sold Rusty 2 and two of the Milli girls as well as the qusil to a young man wanting to show. He's had good luck with the girls. Of course Rusty has the Kentucky fungus on his legs. I still have Cyn, Gus...

I went out this morning to look for spurs. Rusty and His only have tiny found nubs. Gus is now a year old and should have full spurs in comparison to my other chickens. Rusty is what 3 now so he definitely should have them. Another interesting observation. Rusty holds his tail to the left...

Rusty #2. His coloring is just perfect.

Sounds like you have a double Frizzle gene. When a bird carries double frizzle its know as a frazzle. They have brittle over curled feathers that break very easy. If you breed a frazzle to a smooth all the off spring should be single gene frizzle.

I think Spike is jealous they are getting all the attention.

Can anyone help me with the gender of this one. It's about 3.5 months old. I'm thinking girl from lack of wattles, but I have no experience with the breed.

If you don't stop putting pictures on here I'm going to be coming after one of them.

Okay I'm trying to read all the back post but I just got my first Showgirl. She's about 3 months old. She has the best little personality. Do they have any other health requirements than Silkie? Or winter care? I have this NN smoth Sizzle I'm working with in a Sizzle project. I was sent...

I'm relatively new to Cochin. I have three Milli Fleur/Calico bantam. Well one of the girls is the color of what I would call porcelain in other breeds. I love her creamy blue with white spots. I no longer have the smooth hen. What do I need to work towards? Ive been offered a...

I had some one I know contact me and ask if I had any chickens I wanted to get rid of. In the same breath said his wife turned there Silkie flock out and now he only had 2 left. Well I have been thinking about getting rid of one of my Sizzle lines, but I'm sure as heck not selling them at the...

I haven't seen this hawk again, but have heard it a few times I still have all the bantam on lock down. I love all the pics. All my birds are finishing up molting. I'm looking forward to the long weekend. Hopefully the hawks moved on and I can turn them out a bit.

I think both of mine are girls. Still no color in the porcelains comb.

This one came back to the corps a day later. I think it may have something wrong with it. It has had plenty of opertunity to go after the LF and hasn't. There are 2 lg EE roos and 2 very big Brahma roos a pair of geese and ducks in that flock so they may keep it run off.

Hawks grrrrr!!! Just when I was thinking about moving Rusty out of the flock because of his feather legs. He's earned his keep. I heard he and Gus pitching a fit. I look out and see he and Gus going crazy at something at the windows of their house. I grab the pistol and go running around the...

I figure I should know in a couple of weeks on that one.
