    More breed help please

    Allore79, that's what I was thinking after looking at the breeds cackle has. Austra whites are about the only ones I found that were white with slate legs. Drumstick Diva, I was excited to get the turkey poult in my box. Unless it turns out to be a terror, I plan to order a few more poults next...

    More breed help please

    I snapped a couple more pics today. One I thought was a silkie is coming in with normal looking feathers. Possibly a white sultan?

    More breed help please

    Will do. My surprise box came with 1 duck, 1 turkey and 49 chicks. I only lost 3 chicks so I'll have plenty to figure out over the next few months. I'll definitely ask you about the polish in a few more weeks. I have 7 of those. (3 buff, 2 gold laced, 1 splash, and 1 white crested black)

    More breed help please

    Thanks for the replies. I've got one I couldn't get a clear pic of. It's colored just like my Columbian Wyandotte but with a single comb. I'm guessing it will be a Delaware? Summerb123, is it the thickness of his legs or something else you noticed?

    Breed ID help

    All of these are clean legged. I have one bantam colored like #5 that has feathered legs I'm assuming is a cochin. #6's legs aren't very dark. #8 is a bantam I believe. I have all sorts of solid yellow chicks. I'll be waiting until more adult feathering comes in on those. My polish were easy to...

    July 2015 Hatch A Long HAL

    I'd say the adoption was a success. And I just thought she was protective of her eggs... I got pecked several times just reaching in to move the food bowl. Lol.

    July 2015 Hatch A Long HAL

    I almost forgot to post a pic of the 3 incubator chicks. If all is still going smoothly when I check on them tomorrow I'll get a pic of the whole family.

    July 2015 Hatch A Long HAL

    My daughter and our broody finished tied. Both were given 6 eggs and hatched 3. We had one late quitter in our batch (probably day 19 or so). I candled it when I got the three out and there was no movement and an obvious blood ring. An eggtopsy revealed a dead fully developed chick but a full...
