    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Remembering Miracle Today I have been thinking about Miracle and remembering the holiday that we almost lost her. I was enjoying a nice holiday lunch with my family about an hour from home when my husband called to say a pack of dogs had attacked our birds. Several dead birds were...

    You are doomed. Welcome to the club. Hope you find all the eggs you are looking for. Mine are not pure bred because I have an EE/Light Brahma rooster. I guess that does make the chicks EEs since EEs are muts anyway. Good luck with your incubator!

    Sounds like you have got it bad. This is just the beginning! My current goal with my birds is to open a dozen eggs and see all colors and it sounds like you are heading in that direction too. I love the variety, both in the birds and in the eggs. Love my EEs for their sweetness and their...

    This is a great place to learn about chickens and anything related to them. Just about anything you encounter someone on here has been-there-and-done-that before. How many chickens do you have?

    Hello Folks, I've been on BYC for a few years now but have not posted in a while. I'm from Wren in Monroe Co. (north of Aberdeen and south of Tupelo) Got a predator problem at the moment. Believe it's probably a raccoon. So far I have lost 2 grown guineas and 1 keet. So far the chickens...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, I'm still here but I have been really quiet for a while now. Something funny happened this week that I wanted to tell you about. Mena decided to do something special for all the chickens and guineas because it is Christmas. She cooked them a special surprise. When she...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, Sorry I have been gone for so long. I have been trying to tell stories but Mena has been ignoring me. Please forgive her because she has been really busy helping to take care of her parents. Once I wanted to tell you about one of the chicks who grew up with a broken...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Mrs. Fluffy Puffy : WooHoo! Thanks for the update! What color are your keets and their "Mommy?" The keets are pearl, pied pearl, brown, lavender, pied lavender, and light lavender. Little Bit is a pearl but the eggs came from all the guinea hens. Little Bit just had the honor of doing the...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, They hatched! The guinea eggs finally hatched! Half the eggs were under Chicken Chicken and the other half were under Little Bit. The plan was that when Little Bit hatched her part the chicken would take care of them for her. As Little Bit hatched the eggs under her the...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, Hi everyone. I just felt like today would be a good day get a few things straight around here. I had to have a little talk with Mena. She is bothered because the Golden Girls are not laying very many eggs. "They are molting! Cut them some slack.", I said. " Molting is...

    Buff Orpington - Please say it's a hen.

    This chicken came from McMurry and was hatched on April 4th. The comb is bigger than the other two I got at the same time. Do you think this is a hen or a rooster? It has a broken toe and a deep voice. A deep manly voice - but........ I hope it is a sweet little hen with an alto voice.

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, Sorry I have been so quiet lately. Mena has been busy and not listening for me. She sat in the swing today out under the oak tree by the woods. I came out with the other birds to see what was going on. She had a bag of bread and was feeding them. They love to jump up...

    Quote: No white on this cat. Looks like black and yellow with the areas where the two colors blend looking brown.

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Ok, I have never heard of a tortoiseshell cat. What is the difference between a tortoiseshell and a calico? From what I understand, a calico is always female. Right??? What about a tortoiseshell? Are they always female or what? (I thought Esmerelda was a girl because of her color...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Quote: It is a fairly new breed. She was given to me - probably because she is not exactly what the breeder was working toward. I had never heard of them but looked them up. The pictures on the internet look much prettier. Esmerelda has her own special beauty. I think she could scare a...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, Something new has come to the farm and I'm not sure it is a good thing. It is a new and strange looking cat. Have you ever heard of a Highlander? She is a scary looking one with a wild look, six toes, and funny curled ears. Mena would not let her stay if she acted...

    Miracle- Hello! guinea/chicken crossbreed

    Hello from Miracle, It has been a long time since I had a chance to write. Mena has been ignoring me because she has been picking these red round balls out of the garden. She takes them in the house and does something with them. (buckets and buckets of them) I do remind her most every day...
