Polkies sound absolutely adorable! I've heard of silkie/cochins a lot but, never really any polish crosses. Sounds like you have a good set up and some really interesting birds. if I come across any bwc I'll definitely let you know - but you sound way more connected than me 😆
If you do locate...
A very long time ago my sister had a couple, I think they were buff lace or something like that? I used to live on a farm 😄 we had a bit of everything it seemed like. I'm moved out and haven't had chickens in years - finally have a good place now (that allows chickens) and that's what has me...
Not looking for any roosters yet 😅 but I'll keep you in mind for the future, hope the flock works out - I've seen black/white crested before and they're beautiful birds!
Hello! Was wondering if there were any bantam cochin or polish breeders in Alabama? Wanting to try to find local-ish eggs as I've had abysmal luck with shipped eggs!
His mother is a tall, big boned girl, even her breeder was impressed. She's over a hundred lbs and as stubborn as a tree.
His sire was a bit leaner, but type-y and had the most lovely curly black coat. (This lil guy's brother inherited that trait!)
I would guesstimate more like his sire, but...
Anyone interested in giving a sweet little disbudded LaMancha buckling a home?
We were asking a $100, without papers, but we'll lower it quite a bit if someone will take him fast and give him a good home! He really is precious, also comes from some amazingly milky genetics.
He does have about...
I was trapped at Montevallo during the last snow earlier this month!
Since then they've been closing at the drop of a hat, or a flake.
We ended up with about 2" and no power this morning. And very unhappy goats.
Then it all froze, so not so much snow as an icy blanket.
I have a couple Rhode Island Red and EE hens for sale, they are all about 6 months old and laying. The RIR's are laying awesomely, the EE's were a little thrown off with the arctic weather weather, but they're picking up again. They are currently semi-free ranged.
I also have several Polish...
We recently got in an order from Meyer's Hatchery, it was one of them deals where you have to buy a certain number of chicks.
I have 5 RiR pullet chicks for sale, well, 99.9 percent sure they're RiRs at least. They match the description and pictures!
I also have a young cockerel RiR that...
They grew up beautiful, and they look just like their parents! :love Oh! Sorry about that, she must have a dozen email addresses and I don't know how often she checks half of them! We only have one hen and roo at the moment, once she quits being a broody though, we might be able to save up a...
I have a 100% BBS English Orpington cockerel, imported by Heirloom Poultry from Marc Sacre's lines, for sale.
He was the only survivor of a particularly bad hatch and is currently rooming with two New Hampshire pullets. From what the breeder told me his parent flock has won numerous shows, and...
2 silkies for sale, a splash and a partridge.
They are about two years old and are surprisingly not bad layers when they are laying.
They do go broody all the time but I have yet to set any eggs under them, so I don't know how good of mother hens they are.
The Splash is beautiful, and poofy...
We have a crossbeak on the semi-severe side (One of our early hatchery birds). Figi lays eggs, holds her ground and is all around a happy bird.
We would have put her down too, but she proved she could get along with her disability just fine (I am also famous for being a marshmallow). She has to...
Does anyone on here raise goats and disbud, or know anyone who does?
I have never disbudded and I have kids on their way. I would really love to find someone to do it/show me how. :fl
