    What breed is this?

    Does anyone raise Egyptian geese that can tell me more about them. I don't feel like wikipedia is the most up to date or accurate place to get information.

    Modern Game Bantam thread

    Can someone explain to me the various colors you can cross? I have a pair of Lemon Blues and am looking at getting a pair of brown reds as I heard the splash can be bred to them to get more Lemon Blues. Can the blues be bred to the brown reds? I'm trying to understand everything and get it...

    Crevecoeur chickens

    I picked this guy up yesterday at a sale. Everyone thought he was a polish, anyway, I'm wondering if he looks like a quality bird and where I could maybe find him a girlfriend if he is. I had looked for these guys for awhile but couldn't find any. He is a very handsome guy and doesn't seem...

    Cackle hatchery's Hatchery Surprise- Anybody got this before?

    This is our surprise box we got last week. I'm just assuming everything with feathered feet is a cochin since I don't see any with extra toes. We have one with cheek puffs, maybe an aracauna. We have a bunch of chipmunk colored ones and no idea what they are. We got 4 turkeys, I was hoping for...

    Iowa Blues - Breed thread and discussion

    If he is a birchen blue, then do I just need to find birchen blue hens to breed him to? I'm assuming you don't typically interbreed the various color types.

    Iowa Blues - Breed thread and discussion

    Is there a good place where I can see pictures of the various types? The gold ones aren't being bred, they will end up going in the freezer most likely.

    Thank you. We have two others that look a lot like him but have gold feathers where his are silver. I'm guessing they are crosses of some sort.

    Iowa Blues - Breed thread and discussion

    Can someone tell me if this guy is an Iowa Blue? If he is then I would like to get him some hens. I was told that he was but there seems to be a little diversity among the breed as far as color so I guess I wanted more expert opinions. Sorry about the mess, they were brought home and in...

    Swedish Flower Hen Thread

    They were from late 2016 spring hatch. I've honestly never seen the rooster mount her, she just started laying a few weeks ago. These are my only two SFH but they are in with 30 or 40 other birds. Younger layers that aren't laying yet and 2 other roosters. All the roosters are the same age and...
