I ordered from MPC last year. I got six all different breeds. They came alive and healthy. One turned out to be a rooster. I still have four of the six. Love love love my girls. I decided to order again this year. I ordered eight and they came doa. I cried and cried over it. They did...
My newest pullets. Not sure what to name them. It had been raining this day but they didn't seem to mind.
The smallest is I believe three months old. The bigger one is maybe closer to five months old. They are so small.
They have integrated very well with my seven week old cochin and my two...
I would have to say my Buff Orpington "Buffy" is our friendliest. She's always right there when I sit down and is very sweet. She also gets picked on by the babies right now. She never has pecked at them. (Trying to integrate three new babies to our first flock). She's my avatar.
Welcome. I'm new, too. I have two flocks I will be introducing to each other in the next couple weeks. All babies but five weeks apart. I love love my chickens. Actually worked on our chicken run last night. Will be finished in a couple days. I'm from Healdsburg, CA.
Well he was suppose to be a she with the other five pullets I got from MyPet Chicken. So I am very upset but he is so beautiful. This is my first flock. I did get three more babies that I put out by his pen so maybe that got him started. Rats! I have two baby top hats that are unsexed so I...
Well I'm thinking she is a he. He is almost ten weeks and to me it looks like he's trying to crow in the morning. I guess that would be a tell tale sign, right?
When will all the feathers be in on my top hats head? She looks kind of thin on top with the spikey points of the feathers trying to come in. She's a little scary. Yes, she could be a he. But...I'm still calling her Gloria.
Not really any different from my other pullets. I was scared she was a roo cause of the large comb and wattles and all the posts I read about the wattles on roos. Well here's me crossing my fingers.
This is Sir Lancelot. She is golden laced top hat. I got her straight run at the local farm supply. She is four weeks old. I know she could be a he. What do you think?
This is Gloria my black crested top hat (I think she's black crested). She's three weeks old. I keep calling her a girl. I got her straight run at a local farm supply.:(
