...a few Clay x bantam wheaten Ameraucana babies....they are about 2 weeks old now and are so pretty!!! I have one boy out of three, for sure, I *think* the other 2 are looking girlie.
I've had 3 Serama hens in with the pretty white Serama rooster I got from Sundancen. After 2 months of...
I've got a question for all you color genetics buffs out there!
I have a crele bantam rooster and a couple wheaten Ameraucana bantam hens. What color(s) can I expect to hatch, and will they be sex-linked?
Thanks in advance!

That 8 week old chick and the pullet (I forgot she's not quite a year old yet!) are the SAME chicken . Just goes to show how much the Calico cochins change over a little bit of time. :)
Hmm, will have to get more updated pics of Bonnie in the morning. Here's one of her from this winter...she had flown up into my arms and caught me by surprise. Luckily, I had my phone on me. ;) She literally follows me around like a puppy. Even if I'm on the outside of the chicken run, she...
The Mille Fleur and Calicoes all feather in different, and it's so fun to watch them mature! Here's my favorite hen, Bonnie, when she was around 8 weeks old...will have to run to the other computer for a mature pic of her. lol Oh, she's a Calico bantam Cochin, of course. :)
Lilwanis-when my chicken fever started just over a year ago, it was my husband that actually started it! We started with 3 chicks...which quickly grew to 6...9....12...and my flock has been shuffled around quite a bit as I learned more and knew what I really wanted. (That is still kind of a...
...a chocolate hen. Those eggs have about a 75% fertility rate so far. The white roo is with a white hen and a white and chocolate speckled hen. I *think* only the speckled hen is laying...and I caught the white hen finishing off an egg today! All of the eggs I've set so far from this...
Thanks for the responses so far in my mystery Ameraucana. Guess we'll have to play the wait 'n see game!
I will be driving to Layton tomorrow if anybody needs a chicken train from Logan to Layton or back. I work until 11am, and have to be in Layton at 3, just so you have a time frame. :)...
I'm sorry I was wishy-washy about your Serama baby, Cynthia. Sometimes I can't make a decision and I sit on the fence forever! (My husband hates that!)
I would have snatched it up in a heartbeat if it wasn't black...I have a ton of black hens, cockerels and a couple black chicks. I want...
Alright guys. I'm going to run this by you and see what you think. I have 2 bantam wheaten Ameraucanas that I hatched 8 weeks ago. They are both feathering in like girls (although a smidge darker than my older 2 Ameraucana pullets) but yesterday I was looking at one of my 8 week olds. Her...
Thanks, Lisa. Was just at Cal yesterday and they didn't have any bantams left. Just some older (2 weeks?) LF chicks. That needed me to water them.
I may have to take a drive down to Ogden's IFA, but I'm willing to go further if someone here has anything. I have a little dog kennel to...
Does anyone have any tiny babies they've hatched in the last 3 days, or going to be hatching in the next couple? I have a single Serama chick that hatched last night. It's hatch mate quit right after lockdown, it looks like. :( Baby is all alone! Excited to see what color it ends up...
Hi guys, just a quick note to let you know Diana, AKA Sundancenbare is in the ICU. I don't know which hospital. She does have access to email but not the web. You can email her at [email protected] to talk chickens and wish her well. :)
Aww, Cindy! I'm sorry to hear you're having a bad week. :( I do wish you a happy birthday, though!
Lisa, cute baby! I hope she gets a friend soon, too!
So I put the Serama adults outside today in an ex-pen within the chicken run. Went to Ogden, came home and had 2 bloody roosters...
Hi guys!
Lots of good news here! 5 of the duck eggs showed a lot of activity going on last night. 1 that looked like the start of a blood ring, 2 that looked good, but no movement at all from the little babies. I did leave all the eggs in for now, of course. But 5 live ducklings for...
