Thank you!

Sizzle is a frizzle Silkie Frizzle is a frizzle (not Silkie) Frazzle is when you hatch two frizzle parents eggs. The chicks will not be healthy and could die before hatching after hatching or later. They won’t be healthy.

I’ve had chickens for years. Mostly normal size but I have had and do still have silkies. I decided to get some bantams from the local TSC and see a few silkies and some I have no clue 100% what they will be yet. There is one chick that looks like my sizzle but it has but light feet and normal...

Hi everyone. I have a broody hen she had two eggs one hatched the other one has pipped almost 24 hours ago but hasn’t done much else no zip it’s still chirping and mama seems to not want to help it. Should we help it out after 24 hours. Also if you have a good video or site for helping I’d...

Absolutely will be doing that

That’s why we only let them together supervised. When they aren’t she’s in a chicken tractor right up next to their enclosure so they can get to know each other. He pulls a couple feathers when he nips at ther neck but nothing violent like he’s trying to hurt her. It’s more like hey I’m the boss.

Thanks for the comment. Hopefully in time they will be a happy little family.

That’s what we’re hoping for too. We will see how tonight goes during the supervised visit

Just a few days now. They are only together when it’s supervised. We try not to interfere with them but it’s sad.

Hey everyone. I’m new to pekins, well ducks in general. I have chickens but ducks are a whole different world. My situation is I was given two pekin ducks from a wildlife rescue when they were about 3-4 weeks old. They are now about 3 months old. One of a drake for sure (drake feather) and the...

I think having had a ton of hens and chickens at this point that it’s more about size than age. Right now we have three juvenile chicks about 3 months old and they are still adjusting to being with the flock that has about 30 hens and two adult roosters. They are learning all about the pecking...

This is an old thread but I have three 7 week old barn yard mix chicks with green eyes. None of my hens or roosters have green eyes. One of the chicks is a silkie

Thank you 😊

They are on Purina Grower feed. I’ll have to order some brewers yeast for them. How much and how often do they get it?

I was contacted by my vet who was called by a wildlife rescue about two pekin ducklings that needed a home. I have never had ducks before but we have 33 (+3 hatchlings) chickens so we thought we would give it a try and give them a loving home. They are so sweet and fun to watch. They are still...

This is the coop well when it was new

She is already showing them how to eat and drink. We have a feeder and waterer in the coop for them as well as her food and water outside the coop. I’m just afraid they will fall to the ground outside the coop it’s about 3 feet off the ground if they fall of the side of the ramp or go tumbling...

So we have a mama hen and her chicks born in the coop no other hens in that coop. I’m worried about the chicks falling out because it’s so high off the ground. We have cardboard up to block them from falling out but wonder if mama will make sure they don’t Two are about 5 days old and one is a...
