Here he is. Zip. His sister Pip looks the same but way more black. He was hatched in November 2019. Daddy is Mr. Einstein, a white crested Polish and mommy is either Fiesta or Confetti, my Mille Fluer D'uccles.
I got one of 3 eggs to hatch in the incubator- a customer broke one early on and the other just didn’t hatch do I have a singleton again. Her name is Flea or sweet flea. She hatched 8 days ago pics are from day 2 to now. Dad is a polish mom one of my d’uccle.
i just built a new bachelor pad for my birds. I had gotten a big crate from a friend that was holding tiles previously. It’s been sitting here about a year. Then I got some ww2 ammo boxes and turned 2 on their sides and used the attached lids as the peak of the roof. I put perches in there and...

My sl Wyandotte - age unknown maybe 5 or older who still lays 4-5x a week is acting weird. Huddled out in the run - only time I’ve seen her like that is in nesting box. Usually if I go to pick her up she will meander away or scurry to coop- today she just let me pick her up. Vent wad clear but...
Ok I have a batch of 6 eggs in the incubator I got as a gift. It's a little janoel 12 ( small plastic thing) - I've kept temps normal with the help of a different temp/ humidity gauge but the problem is that on this machine you can't change humidity and it's almost always way too high. granted...
my first batch of eggs hatch aprox the 27th so I’m getting supplies. Chick feed- pros / cons or personal preferences and why are requested to help me decide medicated or non medicated. Ty!
My pretty polish girl Dandelion left me a small gumball sized tan egg this morning. She is the ONLY hen in that coop, she and her brother Einstein are still slowly integrating into the main flock and have their own coop/ run. Not possible any of the others laid it. All the info say polish lay at...
Wasn't sure where to post this, so I went with off topic discussions and hope it's the right place.
I've been teaching my chickens tricks and decided to start an org just for trick chickens!
StuntChickenUSA has been in the works since early this year, but our rules and website should be ready...
Hi I'm deb and I have chickens.
I've done many posts on my different chickens and their personalities.
The o.g. girls as my husband calls them are Lucky Clucky an old english game hen and Henny Penny a welsomer.
the party girls are my mille fluer d'uccles Confetti and Fiesta who joined the...
My mother in law found a dove in her yard. She lives a couple miles from me. She brought it to me. I flipped out because we are in la county and under quarantine.
I put it on a dog crate in an area no where near my birds. It is a very calm dove. One eye is injured. There are crusty barnacle...
Well I was told my little henny penny was a welsomer bantam. Well if she was her eggs would be dark brown. I saw her in the nesting box, and got there pretty quickly after she laid the egg and it's a light tinted egg. not a welsomer for sure. who has a clue what kind she is? she's a bit over 1...
I heard the egg song, went to check it out. Lucky Clucky proudly singing her song! Opened egg box, uh... sorry Henny Penny. I didn't know you were in there. she moves over a box and there are no eggs in either side. Come back 20 min later, and yep Henny Penny laid me a cute little pink egg...
Lucky Clucky started crowing today- but I contacted 2 of trusted chicken mentors and it turns out she is for sure a hen- just a dominant one. I have only hens. Guess she wants everyone to know who’s the top bird. If you want to hear her attempts here’s a link to my Facebook link of the video...
so I have an unusual set up its a big L shape around a giant shipping container and between a fence. I'm in the city, so it was a use what space you can situation. The L is topped by a main coop where the original 2 bantams sleep. there is room for more, but we are just now mixing the birds...
I posted a news link. but also a local vet sent this to all bird owners:
Los Angeles county pet chicken owners, take note of new requirements in the effort to control Virulent Newcastle Disease (VND). Here is the nitty gritty. In particular, pay attention to this one:
***All poultry must be...
Hey, Henny Penny, Look those bearded ladies are headed towards our coop. Watch and learn, said Lucky Clucky.
Hi friends! We are the party girls. I'm Fiesta and this here is my sister Confetti, so nice to meet you finally. Fiesta gleeful sang.
Yeah, well you are in my space says Lucky Clucky...
