thanks everyone. just trying to be sure i done give away the only frizzle i may have. of course, trying to not keep a Rooster but i guess its way too early to tell with this breed, correct?

im pretty sure this is an all Silkie flock but not 100%..

Why is the wings so different on the one? Smooth hair Frizzle was her guess

Editing this. Can't be from same mom but possibly same dad. Heck I don't know! lol

Yeah they are 2 days worth of eggs and hatched from Thursday morning until the last on Sunday. Pretty sure they are all the same mom but not 100% Im giving 3 away in a day or so and will raise the rest until several months old and give a few to other friend. So at this point we are giving...

Sorry to post my post and not pics but seems I may get better help in here since this is a Silkie thread. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1143510/silkies-or-frizzles-roo-or-hens#post_17800321

First time with this breed, put 11 under a Buff Orp and got 9 that hatched. They are 24-27 days today and can not tell if all Silkies or a Frizzle or two in there. Got the eggs from a friend. She isn't sure which they came from. Also I am reading they are hard to sex and usually just have to...

I am having 11 Silkie's hatch this morning under mama. a few may be Frizzle / Silkie mix. South Lakeland. Not sure of any hatchery's in the area, i have leaned to hatching my own to be sure everything is right. i have a clean setup. kids play with them every day. its all for fun but the eggs...

We just found this and seems perfect

We have only 3 boxes but we're designed for 9 girls. We now have 13 and you hear them arguing over their favorite every morning. Now, one of our Buffs has gone broody and deciding to add more boxes and build her a special place. Need some advice. This is a 6x20 coop and run design. Cover coop...

So when purchasing chicks, is buying sexlinked / online the more normal thing to do? I wouldn't know where to look, locally, for just a few. Online seems you have to buy 20 to have them ship to you. Would be nice to find somewhere to buy only 3 or so and have them shipped. We already have 12. We...

We are getting some of our friends Black Austrolops and another Buff. Going to get rid of the roosters. What stinks most is that we incubated 7 of our eggs and only the Barred Rock made it and this is one of the roosters. Oh well I guess.

ok, im seeing an unfortunate pattern with the sex..dangit!!! here is a link to the whole flock, just fyi.. I took these all this morning <iframe src="https://onedrive.live.com/embed?cid=E3A393933F117261&resid=E3A393933F117261%2148470&authkey=AF1krTDhfIRy6-U" width="165" height="128"...

Why? The irodecent feathers? Curious how your making your decision. Why the white one? Sattle feathers pointing down? We aren't good with the comb stuff yet And thank you for your response!

We are seeing some iridescent green feathers on all but the white one. Forgot to mention that in the previous post

Barred Rock, brown one and the white one (not sure what breed). Thinking they are roosters due to the sattle feathers. They are barely 3 months. Please excuse the horrible photos. Hoping we don't have roosters since we had to get rid of the other two.

first off, this all needs redone. i had a few attempts to this solution and worked with what i had to test to work properly. so this is all temporary and will be much nicer but same concept.. so, water comes up from ground, through the regulator from BeakTime then splits for a 4ft pvc pipe...

anyone?

This is baby. She decided to hop our fence into the main yard and our 12 week old lab started "playing" with her. She is happy inside the garage in a temp quarantine area made out of a card table and chicken wire. Going to build a small coop/pen for her to stay in until this is healed. We hope...
