No, her feathers weren't laced. I know what lacing looks like. It's hard to describe, i'll see if i have a picture of it somewhere. Her full blooded sister did not have it.

I will try to weigh him if i can find my hanging scale. He is currently recuperating from a dog attack so i don't want to mess with him too much. His dub scar is pretty small, plus his hen has a little pea comb so i'm going to guess it was a pea comb. Thanks both for your help!

Thank you! She sure knows it, too. I love that chick in the center, what lovely coloring!

I ferment all of my poultry feed with my own mix of grains. I change it up a bit throughout the year as the weather changes and they need more or less protein. She has friends to hang out with outside, but she doesn't always feel like it. She eats plenty of grass and bugs, but i sometimes have...

My fella has often said that he thinks she does it out of boredom. As i said in the original post, she only exhibits this behavior when she is brooding and during the 2 weeks or so following brooding. She is never confined, she can come and go as she pleases. She tells me when she wants to go...

Thanks for the warm welcome!

My little sizzle hen has a gross habit of pulling out her own feathers and eating them. She will also eat her own poop. She normally only does this when she is broody and recovering from being broody (no successful hatches yet). I have read in other threads here that this is a sign of protein...

BTW, he has been dubbed. I have no idea what his comb looked like. He weighs maybe 8-9 pounds, but i'm really not sure.

Is he? I actually do not know much about games even though i adore them. Yeti was my first-- i rescued him from the fighting ring about 6 months ago and was told he was a Brazillian. I tried to find pictures to properly ID him on a forum for fighting cocks, but not only was i not familiar with...

Hi, i'm new here. Just wanted to show off the love of my life, this little splash henny that sleeps in a basket under my desk and follows me around the house. Her name is Bo Beiu which loosely translates to 'precious little darling'.

Hi, I'm new here. Here is a picture of my top cock, a brazillian game fowl with his pretty little blue hen. He's tough as nails-- has fought off a coyote and sent him packing (although i had to amputate a toe afterwards) and survived a dog attack that killed almost 20 other birds. He once...

Thanks! I have a little PTSD from it, but having 2 sitting hens hatch the last few days is helping. Yay for babies!

I have read extensively around the forums and gotten a lot of good info here. I figured i might as well take the plunge and create an account so i can be social with like minded people. I think my facebook friends need a break from my poultry talk. I raise mostly exotic breeds, although i lost...
