Hi all. I am a big fan of laced feathers and just recently, I acquired some tiny Seramas. I am wondering if I can crossbreed serama to sebright to get laced seramas? Has anyone tried this yet? I understand that it may take few generations to perfect the lacing but i wonder if sebright is the...

i have a couple of questions and i hope some experts would chime in and shed some light.

Hi guys,
I have 2 beautiful english lavender pullets who started laying. Unfortunately, the male has been sick for quite some time now so we keep him separated. I have been searching for black orpingtons but all i see are blue and splash orps. I know i should not breed blue to lavender.

Hi Folks,
I have 2 buff laced brahma pullets (unfortunately the male died) and 1 Gold laced brahma male. Has anyone tried breeding a gold laced to buff laced? What color will they produce? Thanks.
Hi all,
I have a very nice Silver Laced Orpington rooster who has been breeding my two Buff Orpington Hens.
I wonder if anyone knows how their chicks would look like?
Thanks for your responses. ☺
I am curious if my BO and RIR will be laying soon. They are 18 weeks old. My rir has a huge red comb and wattles. My BO has a huge body, like a full grown chicken.
Please help me identify the genders of these chickens so i know if they need to go to the freezer camp or will be kept for eggs. I once had a chicken which i had difficulty determining his gender until he crowed @ 18 weeks. Lol
The chickens below are now 16 weeks old.
This is Dale, a mixed...
Help! I saw one of my hens pulling out some feathers from my other pullets' butt. she eats the feathers! I am concerned because this is the first time she has done this and i bet she will do it over and over again. My BBSO and BO have beautiful plumage and I don't want then to get bald.

I think i have a serious problen with one of my pullets. This morning, i noticed that the largest pullet has a pasty butt. She has white discharge but it doesn't smell bad. i doubt that it's vent gleet. My opinion is, there is a broken egg inside her. is it possible that the rooster caused it as...
When i first got my chickens, they were 7-8 weeks old. They are 14 months Old now.
Anyways, since i got them, I noticed that the bbs orpington wasn't scratching and was sitting a lot. He walks a bit and then sit down. He eats, he drinks, he dust bathe, he sometimes roost but very seldom.
At...
Hi guys, i ordered 8 day old chicks and they will be arriving this Sunday. For sure they will need starter feeds. My question is, can i also feed starter feeds to my existing flock? They are 13 and 11 weeks old. The reason why i asked this question is because i don't want to maintain 2...
i used to put my chickens in a dog cage until i realized i have to create a coop for them. not only for my convenience but also for my chickens to have wider space.
The idea is to create a coop which can be expanded so they can dust bathe, run, flap their wings and sun bathe too. my backyard...
I grew up in my grandma's house where I see a lot of chickens everyday. The moment they go down from the trees (Yes, the chickens here roost on tree branches) and eat their first meal until they go back to the trees to go to sleep.
Since then, I became fascinated with chickens and I knew that...
