    Hatching Results for Serama Eggs

    Hi Everyone, I thought it might be interesting to see how well seramas hatch, especially after being shipped. I know that they're notorious for poor hatching rates, and I remember spending days poring over serama eggs and how to hatch them successfully. I was obsessed! I thought it would be...

    Looking for frizzled or silkied serama fertile eggs

    Hi everyone, I'd like to buy some fertile serama eggs, that have the potential to produce silkied or frizzled seramas. I'm open to both shipping and local pickup (SF Bay Area, California). The fancier and crazier colors, the better!

    Wanted: variety of DUCKS, Fizzled bantam cochin, frizzled serama

    Hi All, Looking to expand my small flock of 3 hens, hopefully through local pickup (SF bay area), but shipped is fine. I just want 3-5 eggs local pickup, 4-7 eggs shipped, as my incubator is small and I don't want to get overrun with chicks and/or ducklings. I know most flocks aren't laying...

    Giving away a few roosters (local pickup/drop-off)

    Hi all, I hatched 7/8 eggs on Easter, and 4 of the chicks have grown up to be gorgeous roosters. Unfortunately, they are somewhat vocal and my mom is begging me to get rid of them. I've only had them cry in the early morning (not constantly) but it is stressful constantly having to worry...

    WANTED: Frizzled, Silkied Serama EGGS

    Hi! I'm looking for some frizzled or silkied Serama eggs. A mix of those (including smooth feathered and booted) is fine. I have tried hatching a mixed dozen+ of shipped serama eggs and the four that hatched were smooth feathered. The more colors the happier I will be! I'd love some pictures of...

    WANTED EGGS: Silkies, colored egg layers

    Hi! I'm looking to restart my flock with a few colorful egg layers, along with a couple of cute silkies. All other breeds, I have a big preference for bantam sized, but that might be hard to find for some. Local pick-ups are a big plus (around Northern California/Bay Area), along with having...

    Incubating Eggs vs Mail ordering Day Old Chicks

    Hi everyone! I just want to get your opinions or hear stories about your experiences raising chicks you've hatched yourselves versus chicks from hatcheries (chicks not socialized with humans right at birth; unlike some breeders who incubate them as well). I'm raising chickens as pets and I'm...

    Month old (4.5 weeks) Bantam Mottled Cochin. Girl or boy?

    Hi all, so after having two of my chicks die due to freak accidents (one trapped under a fallen heat panel of my Eco Glow brooder, another chick, which was my favorite, died due to a piece of string), I'm starting to think that my mottled cochin is a dude. S/he stands more upright than my...

    URGENT: 4 week old chick droopy puffed up less active smaller appetite straining to poo

    I first noticed two days ago that my chick was having a hard time passing out a piece of poop. It came out when I startled her (but she'd been struggling to push it out for a few minutes). A day ago she started being less active, and would crouch down and fluff up her feathers. She was easier...

    week old chick trapped under collapsed ecoglow: panting weak

    The thin panel under my ecoglow trapped my little buff brahma chick under it roasting her for god knows how long. I heard flapping and saw her weakly struggling under the ecoglow. She's really weak and making these gasping motions without any sound. I separated her, got rid of that d***ed...

    4 Day old chick with pulsating butt

    I have a 4-day old little brahma chick that has a pulsating butt (even her tail moves a tiny bit). Her vent doesn't open and close but it looks like she's either breathing hard or straining hard. She's slightly less active than the rest of my chicks, but can walk around normally and is getting...

    Day old chick dunked into waterer, shaking head, sneezing, wiping beak everywhere

    So my silkie chick fell face first into sugar water. She chirped really loudly like she was in pain (maybe some sugar water got in her eye? she started scratching her head immediately) and then she started sneezing, shaking her head, and wiping her beak on the ground and such every few minutes...
