I"M THINKING that the TOP ones are Sicilian Buttercup< but have never had any.
The 2nd photo (group of 3) have feathered legs.
Possibly MARANS or Partricge Cochin, but unsure. ???
The Black/Silver looking ones I'm not even sure what to GUESS at. ???
The bottom 2 photos could be the same...
JUST hatched yesterday at Meyer Hatchery.
They are 16 ASSORTED RARE BREED PULLETS.
I THINK I've figured out a few but I've only had about 20 different breeds and a few of these are not them. EGG-cited to watch them grow!
ANY help is appreciated, THANK YOU!!
With as MANY chickens as we have, I'm glad it's just that FEW. Heheheee
TODAY one of the Buff Orpingtons decided to join the Silkies and other Bantam Broodies.
In their defense, they ARE just over a year old now.
SADLY I was NOT able to get any eggs set.
Incubator was cleaned, eggs were ready but I WAS ILL in bed all day.
Hopefully I can join a different hatch-a-long later.
Our TSC has ASIAN chicks but they look like RIR. Came in HERE and found THIS thread, VERY interesting. I didn't ask what hatchery they got them from because I was in a hurry. I walked out of TSC with 0 peeps, I'm amazed, or amused, whatever. Hahahaaa
I have heard YES they can be trained as LGD's but I've also heard NO, I think it depends on the DOG and the OWNER.
Mine will WATCH the chickens but if given a chance to get INTO their yard they will chase them.
I've ALWAYS loved BIG dogs! We have a facebook page for our mini farm, SONquility. It has pictures of the puppies and the chickens.
The parents are still growing, even though they are almost 2 years of age. (Mom will be 2 years in 2 weeks and dad will be 2 end of next month.) I've been told...
I don't mind it when it comes to the chickens BUT when it involves the PUPPIES, I have to say that we can NOT keep them ALL.
(We have a litter of 7 Caucasian Ovcharka that will be 6 weeks old on Saturday.)
This was a week or so ago. They're about 12 pounds each right now, except for the runt...
