Hey all! I'm just looking for anyone else who has hatched polish x leghorn chicks (bonus if they're frizzled!!) I bought a large group of mixed breed hatching eggs a couple months ago from someone I've gotten eggs from before. We had a successful large hatch of a bunch of very...
Hey all,
I've been struggling with searching this site on my phone so I thought I'd just post.
I'm on a search for breeders who ship eggs (or are located in new York State) for these three different breeds:
Buff Silkie
Mille Fleur D'uccle
Serama (any color for these little ones!)
Although...
Hey all!
I was just thinking earlier..
I recently took in a blue Frizzle Cochin x silkie rooster from a friend who couldn't keep him due to recent health issues. He is indoors for the winter as he needed a bit of tlc and needed to quarantine anyway. His health has improved
dramatically since...
That would be great! I usually keep my incubators full from January straight through the fall but I'm off to a late start this year with my stubborn ladies 🤣 I'm not sure which way from me you are but I do travel throughout NY and sometimes even surrounding states so I'm sure I can find myself...
Hey everyone!
I am looking to add a few bearded Buff silkies (hens and one rooster), d'uccles (hens, any color but especially mille fleur), and possibly a few serama hens.
We are also very much wanting to load up the incubators to add to our large mixed "fun flock"
This flock contains our pet...
Hi all. I want to start by saying I only hatch for fun and most of my babies from all of my breeds stay with me.
My question is this:
I currently have one single pure buff silkie hen. She is a pretty girl with no leakage of any kind.
I am thinking of hatching from her in the spring and I am...
Hey all.
I don't know how to do short and sweet so feel free to skip over.
I've been wanting to post for advice for a little while now but held off to decide whether I wanted to risk potential backlash about quality 😅
So.. I've had Silkies for awhile now kept mainly as pets. I have hatched a...
Hey everyone!
The weather is just beginning to warm up here and the time has come to do a complete clean out and scrub down on all of my coops and brooders.
We are currently dealing with lice here, I am looking at Elector PSP on the valleyvet website and want to be 110% sure that I'm about to...
Hey all
A few weeks ago I bought a nurture right 360 to replace my farm Innovators incubator. It has been absolutely amazing! However tragically a week and a half after beginning my first batch in the new incubator I came home from work to discover it had gotten unplugged! And not only had it...
Hey all! My little silkie baby just hatched about a half hour ago. She is attached to the eggshell still which I've seen before and all turned out fine, but this time there appears to still be something in the egg that she's attached to.. like a bubble almost.. I tried to snap the best pictures...
Hey all!
I am at the end of lockdown for my second batch of silkie eggs in my Farm innovators Pro series model:4250 and will be placing my third batch once these ones hatch (hopefully hatch!)
I am new to incubating. So far I have hatched:
7 brahma cross and 1 EE on Christmas day. I had...
I am a bit overwhelmed with so much conflicting information out there!
I have just discovered a lice infestation in my flock. I have to treat 60+ birds, three coops, an indoor pen and two brooders. I need help deciphering proper mixing ratio for Gordon's Permethrin 10 liquid.
I have 8 six week...
I can try to get pictures during cleaning tonight. It doesn't look pretty for sure! But certainly better than when it was full of pus. Right now I'm guessing she's going to be blind in that eye. Currently even after removing all the gunk I can not see her actual eyeball, I believe her inner...
Hey fellow chicken lovers!
I was hoping for a little advice for my white crested polish bantam.
Since I brought her home a few months ago she has had irritated red eyes. None of her flock mates have developed this issue but I have struggled to get it to clear up. Recently one eye got worse and...
