    Review by '' on item 'Icelandic or Viking Hen'

    In my opinion Icelandics are the best chicken to have. They practically take care of themselves. They are extremely hardy in heat and cold. Their beauty can not be matched.I would recommend them to anyone.

    Thanks for the info! Thats exactly what I needed to know. I want to make sure I keep the most diversity in my flock as possible. So far I haven't found any undeniable traits with the Icelandics. Only problem I have is that I don't have enough of them lol.

    Well I decided to put the chick down. The problem got worse, guess there was to much brain damage, it just kept moving its head back and forth like Stevie Wonder and could not eat or drink on its own.On a positive note the rest of the flock is doing great. The chicks are really starting to...

    Whats the most humane way to kill a chicken?

    Hello I keep chickens as pets and for eggs and have been real lucky not to have to cull to many. I recently tried to rehabilitate a chick that was having problems, I decided the chick would not be able to have a productive life so it was time to cull it, unfortunately I had become real...

    Lost a chick last night but it was not the one that can't stand up. Here are some pics of whats going on. I built a thing to put her in that forces her to stand upright. Im hoping to train her to stand on her own, but every time I let her go she plops right over. Other than that she's strong and...

    Hello Hatched some Icelandic's about 72 hours ago. The last chick to hatch was a day later than the others. It appears to have a neurological problem.
