Hello, 1 month and a half ago I had some eggs hatched from my incubator. In addition to phoenix and greek breed eggs (you can see some of the chicks here),
I had 5 eggs given to me by a friend. Does anyone know what breed these might be and what gender?
1. I think it's a pullet. It has...
It's possible. The golden laced black and the white laced buff ones which are newer additions to my flock seemed quite flighty also..so I had to clip their wings to be sure. They were often nervous as well...I trimmed their crests to improve their vision, too. No other problems came up..I mean...
Beautiful looking chickens! Yes, Polish are medium sized chickens in its LF counterpart. How often do your chickens lay? Are they skittish or flighty at all? Btw, do you have any idea if there is actually a difference between Polish and Padovana chickens?
Hello! I would like to know what is the difference between a Padovana and a Polish chicken.
Is a Polish bearded a Padovana? Or there are more differences in these breeds? Is it a difference between american and european classification? They have different listing on wikipedia...
Yes, I'm cautious for high levels of salt and sugar. Yes I'm feeding them commercial feed..mash. The thing is 2 of them are already laying..and one of them is moulting, too..1 of them is also about to lay, so I have to provide these 3 a little different diet. The rest of the flock is between...
No, I dont think you re the only person as most articles I read about Leghorn, describe this breed as such, flighty and nervous..On the other hand my Araucana hen is 50-50..I mean she's not flighty, quite friendly but she she keeps her distance :p
I guess it depends on each individual chicken's characteristics, the way you grow them, etc..My cemani mix hen is this way when i try to catch her. I think she's more sensitive though because of her moulting.
Many of them are mixes but I would like to know mixes of which breeds if someone has the knowledge. My older flock is just like that, calm and docile with a few little individual differences of course! Yes, Sebrights and Leghorns are said to be flighty but I havent experience such an incident..I...
Unfortunately they re not that fond of fish..Its not so dry though, here in my place..plenty of bugs for them..Maybe i should try canned fish? Is this any good for chickens??
Thank you! Yes, I think you re exactly on point and I thought it was obvious that they mostly free rannge.
Not always practicable but it's necessary, I agree.
