I'm looking for pure bred Black Mottled D'uccle bantam chicks and possibly Mille Fluer D'uccle bantams.
Anybody know where I can buy some? Either from here or a hatchery? I'm interested in vaccinated, healthy chicks only. I'm really wanting some, so any help is appreciated. Thanks!
One of my favorite things is snuggling with them. They'll just come over and jump up on my lap, or fly on my shoulder, and then I'll just pet them and they stay there for a long time, especially if I have snacks. Other than that and their personalities that make my heart burst with love for...
I have been with her for a while now and it seems she is drinking a lot but I still have not seen her eat much. She has relieved herself regularly but now she is on her laying nest and I assume she is going to lay or is either just trying to stay in a small place by herself.
I'm going to keep...
A while back (maybe a week ago?) my silkie hen wasn't acting well and didn't have much balance. She had regained everything and was acting perfectly fine, but now, today, she is standing very still and keeping her head very low. She is also hiding in small places (between my legs, in the house...
Okay, bad news.
I kept her in the garage for a few hours and then finally let her other coop mates in. When my rooster (kenneth) tried to mate her, she fell on her side again and didn't even try to get up. She was just like splayed on the floor. This is the same thing I saw her do when I first...
She is sneezing but only a little. She seems really good now and she is walking, eating and drinking a lot. now she seems like a big.
could she has just gotten cold? she has been in my house for a few hours and is acting just like normal.
I think i may put her in my garage for a first step...
Okay, she has no mites or lice as far as I can tell. And her poop is greenish and watery. my sister was feeding her some food and she was eating it. we haven't seen her drink yet but she does have water.
is there anything else i can do? she is acting a little more normal, but isn't moving as...
My hen (Rosetta) is a little over a year. No, I have not added any new chickens recently. And no, I have not checked her skin. I'll check it as soon as I can and report it back here.
Her crop feels medium size but sorta small. I had put food out there for her, but haven't actually seen her eat...
Hey guys. I haven't posted in a while but today I went out and let out my chickens and they all came out besides my silkie hen (a little older than a year) who was staying on the top roost.
She didn't come out for at least half an hour but when she did, she went into a different house and was...
Hi. I'm currently using skybird's user until I finally make a user of my own on here. I'm her sister. I have 8 one month old mille fleur d'uccle chicks. Well, at least, I think they're d'uccles. I'm afraid that they're not the correct breed, and I was shipped wrong chicks. Anyway, I am trying to...
I've given him sugar water already but he's still the same. I can't tell if he's sick or what and it doesn't exactly look as if he'll make it. So, is there anything else we can do for him?
Hi. I am skybird's sister, using her user with permission to ask a urgent. I have just gotten 18 brand-new chicks in the mail from Murray McMurray hatchery, all the way from Iowa. All of them are doing great! All except one, the smallest Mille Fluer d'uccle bantam. He is the biggest crier...
