    Can someone tell me what she is please?

    We bought these 2 ducks from our local farm supply store last spring. Can anyone tell me what the brown one is? I was thinking a Pekin/Rouen cross.

    New to Silkies...what color are these?

    I gave in the other day and ordered my girls 5 blue silkies. When ordering blues from Ideal Poultry, they say that you may get blue, black, or splash. Sooo....now I need to know what we got. LOL! I know absolutely nothing about Silkies. What color are these adorable little fuzzballs?

    Need help! Premature EE chick....

    I have 18 eggs in the bator and yesterday had 2 hatch. One of them is running around and healthy, but the other one must have been in way too big of a hurry! After he zipped and kicked the top of the shell off, I could see yolk! I quickly pulled him out, keeping the bottom half of the shell on...

    OMG!! It is huge!!

    Look what my EE surprised me with today. This has to be the largest egg I have ever seen come out of a chicken! The one on the left is a BR egg weighing 21.5oz and the one on the right is a RIR egg weighing 26 oz. I have no idea what the EE egg weighs. My scale only goes to 32 and it was maxed...

    Air Cells Seem Very Small On Day 17?

    Okay guys, I candled a few of my eggs today and it seems that the air cells are much smaller than they should be at this stage. My temp has been steady between 99.3-100.8 and the humidity has varied quite a bit between 40%-65%. Mostly in the 40's the past week. Tomorrow evening, the turner will...

    Black sex links have black legs?

    Long story short...these are the only 3 chicks that hatched out of my very first incubator attempt. Some of you have already seen them I am sure. I have a BR and a RIR roo. BR, RIR, and EE hens. I know the one is EE/RIR. It came from a green egg. The other two were out of BR eggs. Obviously RIR...

    New babies today!!

    Sweet, sweet DH decided we needed a few (4) guinea's. So, to keep me from blowing a gasket, he brought me 5 new baby EE's!! They are all 9 so, so precious. For now.....until the itsy, bitsy, adorable little guinea's start voicing their opinion around here! Not sure if there is enough room on...

    Ameraucana or EE?

    Bought these two hens and the roo from a guy who called them Araucana....obviously not! What I WOULD like to know is if they are Ameraucana or EE? Both hens lay beautiful green eggs. They have the muffs, beards, and pea combs. The girls are still looking pretty rough from their first molt and I...

    New Chicken Tractor!!

    Had to show off the new 13'X9' chicken tractor that my wonderful DH built for my 10 & 12 year olds daughters chickens. They are now patiently awaiting the arrival of their 5 blue Silkies. So, every day, until they get here I get to say " No. They will not be here today." And then every day until...

    KS-Does anyone ship bantam silkie chicks?

    Bad, bad rooster.....

    So today I decided that my 12 week old BR pullet was grown up enough to put in with my BR roo and 5 BR hens. BAD IDEA!! I thought I would start her off by just letting her check out the coop first so I took her in and sat her on the floor. She immediately ran out into the run and up to the roo...

    Sooo very proud!!!

    So, last night, I was sitting in a lawn chair, drinking iced tea, and watching my 3 babies run back and forth in their outdoor, up off the ground, brooder/old rabbit hutch. They are now 4 weeks old and have yet to touch the ground. I wanted to let them out to play, but scared I wouldnt be able...

    How Long Before They Completely Feather Out?

    I have a new black EE rooster, who is supposed to be about 4 months old. Very pretty little guy! His feathers have a purple, pink and turquiose hue to them. Today, while visiting with him, I noticed a few little brown feathers on each side that I had never noticed before. I guess my question...

    What am I???

    I recently hatched 3 eggs on July 1st and I am not sure what I ended up with with this one. I had a BR roo and a RIR roo with my BR, RIR, and EE/Ameracauna hens. I am pretty sure this chick was from an EE egg, but not sure which roo is the daddy. Also, any ideas on gender. Not real good pics...
