My 5month old Buff Japanese bantam roo has a limp tail for the last few weeks. Its not broken and he can hold it stiff and upright like it is supposed to be. Most of the time when he is out in the yard walking around it kind of flops to one side or the other, not completely limp but floppy. If...
I just bought my first silkie! She is 6months old and apparently is show quality(like I'd know and like I really care)! She is the sweetest little chicken I have ever met. I have to get better pics of her but I thought I would post this for now. The woman I bought her from wants me to start...
Can you keep Large appleyard ducks with little Call ducks. I have three 6month old Applyard ducks and one drake, and someone gave me two 6month old female Call ducks. Can I keep them together or will my Appleyards trample the Calls to death. My four current ducks already run over my chickens...
I know that the pullet coming out the door is a silver Leghorn, and of course there is a Barred rock. What are the other two? I am new to any chicken breeds other than Plymouth rocks, which my Grandmother raised since before I was born. I have only had my own non Rock chickens for the last...
I have 5 rabbits one of whom is Sprocket, a 2yr old mini rex/ angora lop x(looks like a lionhead). I have her mom, now neutered dad, and two sisters. The other four rabbits live in a huge pen(formerly a dog run) with a heated house in the winter, while Sprock lives in the house. She hates her...
The first pic is of Peaches and Tangerine who I think are girls.
The second pic is Mandarin that I think is a boy.
Do you agree or am I wrong. If I am right I am going to seperate the three before Kung pao takes over the two girls and beats up Mandarin.
Thanks, Meg
I can't figure out what Schezuan is. I was told when I got him as a three day old chick that he was Ameraucana but I don't think so. They said my rooster Kung pao was an ameraucana too but he turned out to be an EE. All of the other chickens that I got from them are what they said they were. I...
I have four silver crested appleyards, one male and three females. I sexed them based on the fact that three are freakin loud quackers and one only makes whisper and gasping sounds. The one on the left in the photo is the boy I think, the pic is from a month ago and they look so different now...
I just bought like four hours ago a Miniature appy stud from the auction for like $85. He is so frigin cute! He is a tiny 30-32" chestnut with a blanket! I named him Gomer! He perfectly matches my other silver bay mini exstud Joya but he has a blanket. I also bought a 4month old black and white...
This is Bean and she is a cochin pullet and I don't know what color to call her. I have her mom and she looks just like Bean. Her mom crossed with a black cochin rooster created more like her and the people that bought them asked what color she is and had no idea what to tell them. I only have...
Hello, My name is Meg and I thought I would share some pictures of my four Appleyard ducks!
On the left is Fergie(very tiny crest), then Antoinette(she has a gorgeous big crest), Willard is next(he has a small crest on the other side of his head) and last but not least is Edgar who has no crest!
My rooster Kung pao is almost 4months old now and I am wondering what kind he is? I was told Americauna but from all the americauna pictures I have found his color looks nothing like any of them. He has those weird tuffs o whatever by his ears if that helps at all! I bought five chicks from this...
