I moved my chicks outside almost a week ago. They love picking in the grass and never seemed scared at all. Last night I left my fiance outside with them while I got clean water and wood shavings. When I came back they were all doing that screamy/crying stress peep (the one that drives people...
They had silkies, buff brahmas, and this little chick in the assorted bantams bin. She looks like a penguin and although I went for two brahmas, I got her and a brahma instead.
I've been looking all day to figure it out and I'm not sure. I was thinking a black cochin. Am I right?
You can't...
Today after school (since I was in the area) I went to my local feed store. I was looking forward to this all week because I wanted to JUST LOOK at the chicks. Well I get inside and there are...NONE. I ask the lady what gives, I mean, where are all the babies? She told me that all the hatcheries...
My fiance went out and bought me this chick when one of my silkies died. I love this chick but cannot keep a boy. I started to believe my beloved "Penny" may indeed be a "Copper" a few days ago when the comb got bigger. I believe she is a D'uccle. Is "she" a "he"? It seems like you guys can tell...
I picked up this chick the other day at my farm store. It has feathered legs and a beard. I was looking on feathersite and it looks just like the Blue Mille Fleur d'Uccle chicks.
They get their chicks from Ideal and Ideal has Blue Mille Fleur d'Uccle chicks so it is at least a possibility...
I was thinking this was an American or Old English game bantam. Someone suggested it might be a Welsummer. I dunno because she's more brown than orange. Is anyone a game expert?
Also I picked up two other chicks at the feed store. One is a silver sebright and the other is unknown. I think...
I went to my local feed store yesterday. I pleaded for help to stay away. You are all horrible enablers. I went back to the store today. All the ones I wanted were still there!
Grifs gets chicks from Ideal in a mixed bantam order. I got 3 babies and my mom got 2.
Mom's 2 Polish I think one...
I don't have a TSC anywhere near me but I do have a Grifs. It is basically the same idea only smaller. I just got my 5 silkie bantams in the mail on Tuesday and have been nursing one back to heath ever since. So I go to Grifs to see if I can find something to help Mirabelle feel better and they...
My chicks came in the mail on Tuesday afternoon. My smallest chick has gained no weight, she is still 5/8 oz. I have been feeding her Exact by Kaytee. She doesn't eat or drink by herself and her eyes are watery. It has been this way since she arrived. She sleeps more than the other chicks but...
Hi guys! I've been lurking for quite a while and have just received my bantams in the mail. I'm very excited but am having a terrible time figuring out the colors.
This was my order from My Pet Chicken (Meyer Hatchery-I got my bantams sexed--I'll tell you how well they did when I know):
