Beautiful large Leonard saltbox style coop, with 6 nest boxes, sliding glass windows, easy access door, 2 roosts and a bunch of fencing attached with it. I bought it a bit over a year ago and we now need to move. They are around $1000 new, but we can't take it with us, so I'm only asking...
I am very interested in finding other bloodlines of bantam La Fleche's especially in other colors. I just looked on the South Feather Farm website, but didn't see any mentioned. How could I possibly get some of those into my incubator?
I have some black and white eggs in my incubator due...
Does the leg color change as they grow? A few of them have mottled looking legs. Do the leg colors differ from color to color? I looked at the standard, but couldn't find any mention of it.
*sigh* ok, I hate to wait, but I already picked my favorites, though I love them all. Can't wait to see the silver lace feather out. A scrying mirror is basically a crystal ball for poor people.
I just hatched a few bantam Polish chicks and am new to the breed, but these guys are from great breeding stock and I had thought about possibly showing for the first time. I am keeping all of them, but I was wondering what qualities do I look for in these tiny guys right now since there is...
Hello, my name is Nadine and I am a hatchoholic!
A few years ago my boyfriend agreed to 2 or 3 chickens as pets, that totally got out of hand, but he stayed with me through all the early morning crowing, chicken poop on the porch, eggs taking up all the room in the fridge and birds trying to get...
The more I read about this, the more it seems to be breed specific. Out of 5 articles that I found 4 were Faverolles with bug eyes, though I have never had this in my birds and the friend these 2 came from uses the same feed and incubator as I and our birds are related for the most part.
They...
Should not be a deficiency since the parents are pretty much free range in my friends garden and are on the same food that I feed my birds too and I never have seen this in mine either. In humans I would say possible thyroid issue, but I am not sure about birds. I saw that link too, seems to be...
Ok it seems that this is a breed specific problem so I thought I'd ask in this thread. All the info I find on it seems to refer to salmon Faverolles, though I have never seen it in my chicks, these 2 are some that my friend has hatched in her last batch of eggs. Has anyone had experience with...
I have found a few other threads on this, but no real explanation of the cause.
My friend hatched these a few days ago and I took them with me since I have a peep ICU here and also am fascinated with genetics and mutations. They are from salmon Faverolles from the same bloodlines as mine...
I haven't don't much for her really, just getting the word out.
I texted her today and they have the trees cleared out for the new building to be put up
The one on the far right is a mille fleur D'uccle, The one on the far left is golden Sebright. The white one does it have feathered feet or clean? If feathered maybe white D'uccle. I know they are rare, but I have gotten quality ones in my bantam mix for the past couple years, so they are out...
Did anyone else see this article of a chicken/duck hybrid, that's crazy. Chimera here we go, starting with our poultry

Not a contest, tis just the season for peeps and I know how much we all like showing off what we have hatched, picked up or ordered
This is Poli who melts my heart, a little bantam white crested black polish(many more on the incubator)
