I am in search of frizzle cochins and sizzles. My husband loves them and wants them as pets, not show birds. We live in NE Ohio. Does anyone know of a contact? Thanks!

We live in NE ohio. I found some in California, but it is too cold to have them shipped right now.

I am looking for frizzle cochins preferably black in Ohio. I am not really interested in the hatchery quality. Please let me know if anyone has any sort of contacts for this. Thanks!

I am in search of several fizzle cochins. I totally love them. We actually just named our farm after our black cochin and it was killed tonight. My husband and I are both heartbroken.

1 Tablespoon to 1 gallon of water. Add honey!

I rescued 2 ducks and they went into the chicken coop for 2 nights and then they found the pond. They have not left the pond in the 2 months that we have had them. We do have LGD that are protecting them, but I do not want them to sleep outside anymore. I want them to be safe and get a good...

Thanks! We have been putting them together under our supervision. She makes quite loud noises! She is so sweet! She is also this great bluish lavender color. She is SO pretty! We have two drakes that we would like to adopt from a rescue organization that are special needs. Do you think...

Thx! She is not egg bound based on these symptoms. Any ideas what she is?

Mr. Hoppers died. He must have gone septic. He was such a sweet little guy!

I think that I have an egg bound chicken, but after much research I am not so sure. "Cluck Cluck the little red hen" has a very hard tummy. It almost feels like she has eggs inside of her. She is getting around fine. She is happy, eating, pooping normal, roosting with her friends at night...

I am a science teacher and the chicken lady at my school. I got a scary picture of a bloody chicken eye. I told the child to separate it from their flock and next thing I know I have Hoppers in my classroom. So...I am trying to heal Hoppers because he is someones pet. I do not want to spend...

I had the same problem you are saying and she kept pushing it back out. I used honey. I put it on her vent and I pushed it back in and held it in for like 1 minute. Then I left her be in a dark and clean area. About an hour later I did the same thing. Everytime I went back out the vent was...
