    Silver Laced Wyandotte cross hen?

    I have a year old SLW hen, and she was sold to me as a pure SLW. But she looks to be a mix, she has really bad lacing and has a much bigger comb and wattle. What breed do you think she is crossed with? Also have a look at her tail… it’s different to my other wyandottes.

    A 6 week old chick, with an upside-down head?!?

    So I have this little Aruacana chick, I think is a rooster (let me know if I’m wrong) and he has his head slowly going upside down. The only times his neck and head are straight and normal is when he is drinking water. Besides that it’s sideways. I’m quite sure that it will go completely...

    More Wyandotte Genetics

    I have a buff laced Wyandotte rooster, I have heard some people talk about how that isn’t a true colour. People have said that he is a Blue Laced Red, he looks more like a BLR, he’s dark in colour. Okay, okay… enough rambling about my rooster. His hens are silver laced (both black and blue)...

    Duckling sex

    What sex do you think these ducklings are, I will find out how old they are soon. One is a white khaki Campbell I believe, one is a Harlequin and one is a Cayuga mix, they are all mix breed. The all white one is quacking so I’m pretty sure it’s a girl, the other two I haven’t heard anything...

    Guinea Mum raising chicks

    I need some advice. I have a Guinea mum who has just hatched over a dozen eggs and has her keets with her. I am torn about whether a let her keep them and raise them or if we intervene and take them. She defends them from us, but she’s a Guinea…. Not very smart. I am worried about predators and...

    SICK DUCKLING- URGENT

    I have an Ancona mix duckling, he is a hit over 2 weeks old and isn’t eating or drinking with the others. There is one duckling in the flock that is double the size of everyone else (1 week older) and 1 that is a quarter of the size to everyone else (1 week younger), and the older one isn’t mean...

    Is my Wyandotte pullet a cockerel?

    I have 2 ten week old Wyandotte “pullets”. But one has a much larger comb. It doesn’t look like a rooster comb (the same as our roosters of the same age). It has a lot more black on it than it’s sister. I’ve gone and taken pictures of “her” and can’t tell. If anyone has a guessing sex, it would...

    Wyandotte Genetics

    Could anyone share a chart or explain to me Wyandotte colour genetics? I have a Gold Laced Roo and a Silver Laced Roo, as well as Splash, Silver, BLR, and Buff laced hens. What combinations can I get from these mixes? Any answer is a good answer 😊

    Are my Saxonys both drakes?!?

    Hi everyone, hope you are all well. I am very confused about my two 10 week old saxony ducks (I bought a dozen mixed duck eggs of a breeder near me and only got one kind of duck, I was meant to get Cayugas and Watervales as well). Out of the dozen eggs i bought only 3 hatched… then when I let...
