They looked a little dirty when we bought them but looked fine enough to survive the hour long home trip in a warm padded box. As soon as we got them home and into their new living area, we noticed they were completely still and lethargic--they haven't moved in twenty minutes! They look like...

I was wondering if anyone's had any success in giving vitamins like gingko biloba to their fowl to improve brain function just a bit. I plan on trying it as a little experiment, I just need to make sure it won't kill my cute little babies. Thoughts? Also, does anyone else use any homemade...

We had a dog get after our chickens today. One chicken was injured and two were missing. The two that had disappeared were the best of friends and had always been together. We found one after about an hour of searching, perfectly fine and hiding. Since then about another hour or two has gone by...

I saw two frizzles that were labled as hens at the feedstore that I couldn't pass up. I'm the proudest mama ever, they're super sweet and extremely adorable--and their fluffy butts are to die for! I'm new to chickens but I think they're bantam cochins. I've no idea what to call their colorings...

Fifi my buff polish hen has always been a joy to watch. She's always been a dominant bird and likes to set the rules around the coop. She's so dominant, in fact, that I was positive she was a HE until she layed an egg. I've seen her mount the other, extremely-confused chickens. Nothing...

I'm a first time chicken owner with a flock of nine. Six hens and three roosters. Two of the roosters are nice as can be but the third one, Piper the golden polish roo attacked me out of the blue yesterday. I was wearing jeans but the open part of my foot he managed to get bled. We'd been...

The chicken is (we think) a male of about 10 weeks old. For the past few days he's had this nasty swollen eye and I'm not sure what to do or how to treat it. (Piper the Gold Roo) I'm very new to chickens, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! UPDATE: His feathers have gotten...

My boyfriend and I love cooking together, even if he thinks he's the Iron Chef and likes to add mystery ingredients while my back is turned. (Curry in cookies!? You're not Bobby Flay!) Recently, however, he's decided to become a vegetarian--partially because he was on a forced atkins diet for...

I raise a small flock of polish chickens of various colors. I've got white crested black, red, white crested blue, black, golden, buff and a beautiful little Sultan. I got stuck with a light Brahma roo a while back and fell in love with him. He's been looking kind of anxious to breed, so I...

I'm looking for a frizzled polish rooster (any color) in Texas. Preferably in the Houston area. I really want to start a frizzle flock of my own!

I live around the houston area and would like to start cross breeding my polish hens with a frizzle roo, but I can't seem to find anyone around here that breeds those adorable guys! Any help? ~Thanks

I bought a batch of polish chicks from the Ideal Hatchery and as warmers I got five of the strangest, fluffiest, tamest chicks I had ever seen. Sadly, a stray cat claimed the lives of two of them and I only have the space to keep one. EDIT: Thanks, Lanissa. These are Light Brahma Roosters...

The two are best friends and would never peck each other. They're thirteen weeks old. They live in an enclosure with six other, much smaller polish chicks (whom they bully just a bit lol). They're not completely bald, but their crests are thinning and looka little ragged. Could this be because...
