    Blue cream silkie rooster

    Thank you. I've been trying to do research about this coloring but can't find a whole lot. I did read to NOT breed blue with them. I think that confuses a lot of people because of the word blue in the coloring name. Could you breed a buff with him or no? It's next to impossible to find a blue...

    Blue cream silkie rooster

    I am just getting into breeding silkies and recently purchased a group of white silkies. In that group there happened to be one blue cream rooster. What do I need to breed him with to get nice looking chicks? Only a blue cream hen? Or what would happen if I bred him with a solid buff hen or...

    Two more chickens that I'm not sure on breed

    I have these two hens that are close to 10 weeks old... I'm not sure on the breeds and would love to know for sure. I was thinking the light brown one is a golden comet maybe? And the black one I cannot figure out. She was solid black as a chick and now has a little gold on her chest and...

    What breed is this?

    Thank you both. After looking up that breed, I believe y'all are right. Matches the description perfectly. Now I know I have two new roosters that were supposed to be hens 😔

    Protection against hawks

    We are definitely learning as we go along with our chickens. We never grew up around them or anything so I did research before I got them in August 2018, trying to learn as much as I could about them and more research as new problems arise. I don't know a whole lot about roosters, I didn't even...

    Sorry about that, it was more evening. About 4:30ish when we found her.

    Protection against hawks

    Haha @ the picture! Guess that answers my question about the owl decoy. My chickens have an enclosed coop with roost they sleep in at night and attached to that is a covered/fenced run that is about 5x15, just a little space for them to walk around until their automatic door opens on the run in...

    Protection against hawks

    This has not been the best month regarding my chickens! First I went through an illness with them at the beginning of the month. Thankfully they have all recovered and did not lose any to that. But THEN, I've lost TWO of my chickens to a hawk, with the most recent being last night with my...

    Can you hatch from chickens that have had MG in the past?
