    Can I please have advice on the breed of my babies

    Speckledhen you are right I am no expert, but I have been taking her to a vet who specialises in birds and they are the ones who diagnosed her. There is always a chance they got it wrong, but the care she has received from them has been amazing and she has definitely improved. And I got all the...

    Can I please have advice on the breed of my babies

    Ahhh I'll have to check the rules of my area regarding keeping roosters . I picked Midas from a bunch of 5 chicks at 4 weeks old, as it was the smallest, calmest, and had next to no comb. The farmer agreed it was a hen .. ah well thats the risk you take!

    Can I please have advice on the breed of my babies

    Thanks speckledhen! Midas has VERY feathered feet, and I just googled pictures of Red Cochin and think you may be right! What do you see that makes you think cockerel? (I'm really hoping for hen! Haha)

    What Breed Are They?

    Thanks! She was named after Indiana Jones because right from the hatching she seemed a lot more curious than the others, and more willing to explore away from the brooding box.. Saying that I have noticed lately that she actually seems to be more of a scaredy chicken than the others!

    Greetings from Down Under!

    Hey! My name is Alysha and I live in Melbourne, Australia. I lived on a hobby farm from 3 weeks old till I was about 5 years old and we had 28 chickies! As well as 2 sheep (Ma and Baa), a ram called Lambchops, a pony named Brandy and a couple of geese. After moving around a bit we moved back...

    I can see where the tool box should be, but there is just a blank reply box for me to write in with no options to add attachments or change fonts or anything.
  18. Vanellope Named after Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck It Ralph because after hatching she kept moving her head in sudden spurts like she was "glitching" (even more so then chickens usually do). Vanellope was stuck inside her egg for 24 hours after making the first hole through the egg shell. We got a bit worried, because although we were told not to assist them we also didn't think it was normal for them to take that long. After a lot of hemming and hawwing we broke a bit of egg shell off to assist her and realised that the membrane had actually dried around her, preventing her from getting out. We completely freed her, but were unsure if she would survive the night. 8 weeks on and she is now just as fit and healthy as the others!!

  19. Luna Named after Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter. She is a lot more content and laid back than the other two, and her black and white feathers made me think of the moon!!
