    Thanks for the insight guys! Guess we have some more waiting and research. He seems like a really terrific chicken, very people friendly, not skittish and he likes to be held.

    2 months old, we're pretty sure he is a OEG Silver Duck Wing at this point.

    2 months old, this chicken is extremely small, even for a Bantam. The Silkie and d'Uccle of the same age are almost twice its size!

    Our 7th and final chick hatched last night! This chick had been pipping for two days without any progress other than a very small crack by his beak. We have been very worried and really didn't want to lose this chick because it is another from our favorite hen which we lost last week. We...

    Setting Eggs on April 24th!!!! Who wants to hatch along w/me???

    We used liquid Sevin on Ginger's hotspots (the lice had laid a ton of eggs between her wattles) and dusted her a couple times yesterday really well. This morning we checked her and she looked good so we gave her babies back and she immediatly pulled them all under her wings. She was really...

    I thought I was getting something else....Help?! *new Pics 5/1*

    Here are some new shots we took today. The wing and back feathers are really starting to look like a Mille Fleur Belgium d'Uccle, though the head and other feathering doesn't and there are hardly any boot feathers compared to the other d'Uccles we had at the same age. At this point we are...

    Bantam chicken, looked like OE when smaller but now we don't know...

    Their site is sorely lacking and we've tried Emailing them also without much luck. We've gotten a silkie, along with golden and silver sebrights as well as Porcelein & Mille Fleur d'Uccles from them for sure. Other bantams we've gotten look like Old English Game bantams to us but we aren't...

    Bantam chicken, looked like OE when smaller but now we don't know...

    This chick was born 29 March 2010 at Townline hatchery and we're not quite sure what it is. When it was a chick it looked pretty clearly like an old english game bantam, perhaps a silver duckwing, but we don't really know. As it has aged it does not look like any chicken we can find. Any help is...

    Setting Eggs on April 24th!!!! Who wants to hatch along w/me???

    Excited to report we found two chicks under one of our sebrights this afternoon. One is clearly older than the other as one chick is dry, fluffy, and is able to stand and walk, and the other is still wet and wobbly. We had six or seven eggs under this sebright and expected them to start hatching...
