    Cutest Chicken Contest!

    This is Chardonnay and her sister Sangria. They are Golden lace Wyandottes, my first of this breed. I've only had them about a week. They are something else. Friendly and kind of cooky. Just had to share the pic of Chardonnay all stretched out on my shoulder. She had me cracking up. So funny.

    Silkie thread!

    I've also seen all my girls engage in chick play. Sometimes they are the ones in charge too. But about the Silkies...My two are at the top of the pecking order. And they're not too keen on being held anymore more when I held them all the time from the time they were tiny chicks.

    Silkie thread!

    Oh yes. They are fuzzy. I think they are between 7 and 8 weeks. I had to guess how old they were when I first got them after doing much reading and looking at pictures. These funky feathers I spotted on his wings. I did a little more searching last night and I think they are filoplume feathers...

    Breed ideas?

    Thank you so much. I had been wanting frizzles so bad. I didn't know those three were mixed with Silkie when I first got them. But they are cute and I love them. Can't wait to see what they will look like all grown up.

    Easter Eggers from Hatcheries

    I certainly hope it works out and they all arrive alive. I know I would be heart broken (again) too.

    Silkie thread!

    Hi everyone. I'm new to the thread and to Silkies for that matter. I got my first pair a little over a month ago. I've been looking and reading trying to see for myself but I thought I would just go ahead a post my question. Hope no one minds. One of my Silkies had these strange little feathers...

    Help! Baby chicken sick, head down, loss of balance

    He was between three and four weeks old. In the beginning he couldn't hardly hold his head up at all or stand. And if he did stand, he'd either walk backwards or just fall backwards. I spent all my time with him. I would get my finger up under his head and lift it back up for him. At two weeks...

    Help! Baby chicken sick, head down, loss of balance

    It does sound exactly like what biscuit had. A stuffed animal in with her? That's a great idea. Biscuit didn't seem to mind being my himself but it would have been good for him anyway. When I finally put him back with the others he let them know he was boss. Overcompensating for the weakness I...

    "clicking" type sound inside my hen

    I did that and at the time she wasn't making that sound so...I think I'll probably go ahead and call the vet this up coming week and see what they say. I need not put it off any longer. Thank you.

    "clicking" type sound inside my hen

    So if it were that, is there anything I (or the vet) can do for her? And is it one of those things that could go either way? She might live with it for a while and she might not? Thank you for your reply btw.
