    Hatchery with the "Best" Saipan Jungle Fowl?? PLEASE READ!!

    I had four ideal chicks I bought this spring. They grew to be huge with two of the roosters looking like the saipans and one looking more like a thai game. The largest rooster was massive but very healthy. All were very friendly and while they dominated the flock, once a pecking order had...

    Hatchery with the "Best" Saipan Jungle Fowl?? PLEASE READ!!

    thanks for info! I suppose we will see how it goes. I drove up to Ideal today and picked up some bantam modern games and silkies as well to round out my first batch of chicks. The moderns and silkies immediately went to the water and the chick feed in the feeder, within a few minutes of...

    Hatchery with the "Best" Saipan Jungle Fowl?? PLEASE READ!!

    Hi just picked up four baby saipans from the feed store yesterday. The feed store stocks from Ideal. I have liked them and the other oreintals for a while so was excited to see these little guys! A few questions: 1. The lady at the feed store said that the Saipans grow up and are...

    They are so beautiful!!! I have two blue pullets but they seem to be a bit darker than yours. Your rooster is simply beautiful!!! I was thinking of getting some black sumatras, but after seeing your roo's picture I think I might get blues, so I can have a mix of blacks, blues and splashes-but...

    Cubalaya Thread For Sharing Pics and Discussing Our Birds

    By chance does any one have a suggestion for where I might find a cubalya bantam hen or two to go with my little hatchery rooster? Id like them to be a bit nicer than him-not that I will be showing them, just so they would look very pretty. He is a black brested red. Thank you!

    Sumatra Thread!

    When I first got my chickens it didnt seem that too many critters were bothering them....I had them free range during the day. Then I noticed the mexican hawks were grabbing one everyday or so. Then my friends dog stayed the night and tore through the coops and killed all of my chickens. They...

    Sumatra Thread!

    Thank you both! Raccoons broke into my chicken house and killed all of my babies except these four, who were a bit smaller and in a second cage. I thought I had four boys, so it is nice to know I have a mix. They are very sweet and docile, unlike the spunky bantam cubalaya behind them. Thanks...

    she is a chow/german shep mix of some sort. She has killed cats and other small dogs in the past so has a history of being a bit aggressive. I guess she figured out how to get the back gate open and once in the yard, then figured out how to get into each of the coops. Smart dog, but I suspect...

    :( I took my two beautiful game roosters and built them separate pens so they wouldnt fight and gave each a few hens. I came home yesterday and my roomates dog had torn through all three chicken coops, breaking open the doors and had killed 18 of the 21 chickens. She had just killed them...

    I have two young game roosters who are currently with a flock of mixed other chickens. They are all about three months old and the little roosters are starting to mock fight a bit. At what age do I need to remove one of the game roosters so they do not hurt each other? Can I leave one of the...

    mottled/splash yokohamas and phoenix chickens?

    They came from Cackle Hatchery as part of a jungle fowl mix. Very tame and friendly and lots of fun! Would a show quality breeder have breed out the extra mottling to get better coloring?

    mottled/splash yokohamas and phoenix chickens?

    Hello! I purchased a batch of chicks from a hatchery and five were of a fun "jungle mix". Two appear to be golden duckwing phoenix and possibilities were of a variety of breeds (phoniex, yokohama, cubaylays, jungle fowl, saipens) Three of the chicks have me a bit puzzled: Two appear to...
