    Review by 'kculbert' in article 'Fecal Examination in Backyard Chickens 101-Part 1'

    Very thorough and easy to understand instruction. The pictures were great.

    Silkie thread!

    I recently lost my five year old black silkie. She was quite a character and oddly, the top hen in my mixed flock. She was a little bit of a bully and I loved watching her try to take on my bigger birds. I housed her with the larger birds because she was too bossy for my other bantams. I love...

    ISO Bearded Silkie Hen

    I am looking for one or two silkie hens. Any color is fine but would prefer them not to be white. Am willing to drive within reason or pay for shipping.

    What are your five favorite breeds and why

    1) English Orpington - Big, round and fluffy with great personalities! What's not to love? Very drama-free and like hugging a down pillow. 2) Bantam Cochin - The cuteness factor is high on this one. My little calico looks like she is snowshoeing around the pen. 3) Silkie - Not a fan of the...

    Okay fellow Texans, I need your help! I am looking for a mille fleur Belgian d"Uccle pullet or a mille fleur/calico or barred bantam cochin. I am in Houston and I know someone has to have one or know of someone who does. I am willing to drive a ways or wait a little while for shipping. Can...

    I know this is a very old thread but is Mr. Urch still in business? I haven't found anything on him recently and was hoping he was still selling d'Uccles.

    *Update - Unsuccessful Spay. Anyone have experience with Suprelorin implant and/or spay? Egg yolk pe

    Thought I would post an update. I decided not to give Big Fatty another suprelorin implant after the first wore off. She did start to lay again and there were a few odd shaped eggs that caused me some concern at first but most of her eggs have been normal. Her egg laying is tapering off as she...

    Showgirl thread- for posting pictures and discussing breed!

    I am looking for a bearded showgirl pullet near Houston or from someone willing to ship. Any color but black (I already have a black silkie). I am not looking to breed or show, just want a pretty girl and am IN LOVE with this breed. Does anyone know of a Texas breeder?

    D'uccle breeders Database

    That's so nice of you to reply but I am definitely looking for something sooner than that and definitely can't hatch eggs or have chicks (no roosters). Long story short, I have a partially blind Ameraucan hen who gets beat up all the time and has to have her own enclosed coop and run. She acts...

    ISO: Mille Fleur Pullet - D'Uccle or Bantam Cochin

    Looking for a single pullet. I am in the Houston but will drive a few hours to pick up. If further than that, would need to ship. Will wait for weather to cooperate.

    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    She's doing okay. I would love for her to have a friend but honestly, I'm not sure even adding a gentle banty would work. My little silkie picks on her terribly but I did put the two of them together today for a little bit and it went okay. Poor baby. Even her sister has turned on her and they...

    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    My mini-coop for my vision-impaired chicken. The other girls all pick on her relentlessly so she got her own pretty house in the flower garden. It was small and flimsy but I reinforced it and added an automatic door opener and some major style and color. I think I like it even better than my big...

    *Update - Unsuccessful Spay. Anyone have experience with Suprelorin implant and/or spay? Egg yolk pe

    Thanks for the update Wol1 and missypebble. I have learned so much from this thread and appreciate everyone's willingness to share their experiences. Big Fatty is doing amazing. She has not laid an egg since she received the Suprelorin implant back in May. She did go through a terrible molt...

    *Update - Unsuccessful Spay. Anyone have experience with Suprelorin implant and/or spay? Egg yolk pe

    There is nothing more unattractive than a molt. At least Ellie's skin blends in with her feathers. Phyllis has bright red skin. Very gruesome. Is Ellie still an indoor chicken? Maybe that's why her molt is off. I have only introduced single chickens in the past. Everyone says that is harder...

    *Update - Unsuccessful Spay. Anyone have experience with Suprelorin implant and/or spay? Egg yolk pe

    Luv, Big Fatty is doing great! Ella will lay a regular egg and then drop one the next night. She is healthy and it hasn't seemed to cause her any problems health wise but I don't think she will ever lay normally. My little silkie is laying like crazy, which means she's probably about to go...

    Poor Ellie. I hate that she has it so rough.
