    Alba the preemie Serama chick

    Sadly, she died at a week and two days old. She'd started feathering out, but then she just keeled over. :(

    Can coccidiosis cause developmental delays in baby chickens?

    Some time ago I bought three silkie and two salmon Faverolles chicks to keep with a singleton Serama. Long story short, it turned out that the new chicks carried a very nasty mutated strain of coccidiosis. All of the chicks ended up dead, along with half my flock. Nicely bred birds. Hardy birds...

    Alba the preemie Serama chick

    i recently lost my beloved Serama rooster Fitz. He was the sweetest bird ever, and was really pretty with vivid red and black splashes over a pure white base. I was heartbroken.

    My new salmon Faverolles

    Yesterday I received a pair of Salmon Faverolles. Turns out that they're very photogenic critters, and quite silly. I named the hen Firedancer and the rooster Shadow.

    Thanks. Here's dad and her older half sister: Her father is our infamous Broody Rooster. Right now he's raising a clutch of four chicks, including two EEs.

    Silly swimming chickens...I mean "ducks"....I mean chickens!!

    Probably because if they get cold, they flip so their head is under water, and are unable to flip right side up. Had this happen with a serama roo. Result: sneezing, coughing, miserable rooster. I never let him swim again unless it was a heated pool/tub.
