I am particularly excited about the Lavender, they are fairly rare here in South Australia

Cool, thanks mate good to know

I have to say they are the best Broody hens you can get, would never have my backyard without one

My silkie doing what it does best, Being a mother!!. Wish I did not waste my money on an incubator now haha. In this case its raising some Guinea Fowls

My best guess is Pearl grey and Lavender for the lighter one

My silkies have been hatching these cute guinea fowls ( I purchased fertile eggs ). I have noticed that one of the keets is lighter than the others. There are so many different color types according to this website http://www.guineafowl.com/fritsfarm/guineas/colors/. Still have no idea which...

The light ones are white, but i think the others might be partridge. Not 100 percent sure though

I have a problem with local birds stealing my chicken feed, someone told me to get this fake owl but it only worked for a few days before the pigeons and sparrows were back. What do you think is the easiest and best solution for my situation? Cheers

This white fluff ball hatched about 6 weeks ago, silkies are very hard to sex at this age. Anyone know what sex it is yet?

Cheers for the kind words. You are right, a Jack Russell is breed to catch small animals and does well keeping the mice away so I guess I cant blame the Dog entirely. I am going to make a large brooder cage so I am able to raise the chicks to a more suitable size to roam free in the backyard...

This morning i woke up to find all the new 6 Silkie's I brought yesterday were all dead. Lined up in the back yard evenly placed in a straight line. The culprit is my dog, a little Jack Russel. I have had chickens for a while and never had a problem with the dog, I have brought new chickens...

I have heard the game thing, though the only thing is that the other male was very well behaved. By the way it protected the females i think it was a territorial bird.

This is a long shot but do they still have the Gawler poultry Auctions at the Trotts in Adelaide? If so i think they were on every Second Wednesday, what times do they start? Cheers
