Hello
See attached pic. Im not actually sure how old Ursula is, I got her at an auction about 10 months ago. She seems older and also maybe doesn't lay anymore, haven't seen her in the nest box.
Hi there
I'm pretty sure my hen is a hen, but is acting like a roo. But just to double check, these eggs are not fertilised right? They are infertile?
Cheers!!

Hello
I have a 10-11 month old Faverolles 'Tiramisu' and she crows! But it needs to stop/reduce as we live in urban area.
Pretty sure its because there is no rooster. She is also the biggest in the flock, as the 5 other hen's are a mix of barbu d'uccle and pekin bantam. She seems to mostly crow...
Interesting!
Thanks for the reply.
Looking at some of the other pictures on this channel I think my other Pekins might have something on their combs anyway. But that's good to know for now!
Cheers
Hello,
I have a beautiful salmon faverolles, 7mo, called Tiramisu. I noticed recently that she has funny light coloured comb/ears(both sides). I wondered if it could be a fungal thing?
She also shakes her head abit, like maybe it's irritating? But has been doing that for a while now...
Hi there,
I have a flock of 6, 5 bantams (mix of Pekin and D'Uccle) plus 1 faverolles.
I wouldn't mind a couple bigger chooks and the possibility of getting some white rock pullets has come up. I've read they are a docile breed. Keen to hear peoples thoughts on mixing these ones.?
Nb-...
Hi there,
I live in New Zealand and everyone is starting to talk about the inevitably of us getting the H5N1 bird flu virus from Australia (we are close to Aussie and Australia is like our giant Canary so to speak).
But all our local chicken Facebook pages are full of unhelpful conspiracies...
@Tonyroo It has been very warm, 26 deg C+ for a number of days, but not too humid. We live in a slightly elevated area so only humid after rain. Are you thinking heat stress?
