Well my boys that are just 5 months are mature enough to fertilize the eggs I baked some zucchini bread yesterday and the eggs had the little white circle on the yolk. Shoot wish I had known before placing them in the fridge because now my girls are starting to molt and have stopped laying, now...
I'm so sorry your little one passed sometimes it is for the best if quality of life isn't there. I do hope your other tiny chick gets stronger.
I have lost a few Silkies with vaulted skulls and I have a couple that have survived to adulthood with a whole lot of TLC they have their own pen away...
I think you would gain some insight into the vaulted head brain injury issues if you take a look over at the Silkie group it sounds like you are having similar issues that have arisen with the Silkies and their vaulted skulls though not as severe. Good luck with your little ones it is...
Hi I have a question I have two SFH roosters, they will be 5 months old on Saturday at what age are they mature enough to fertilize eggs? Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but the only roosters I have experience with are Silkies and they are very slow to mature.
I am also interested in the aggression level I just picked up two SFH roos they are currently together but they are only going to be 8 weeks old. I don't want to fear going into my own yard. They are so beautiful and I would hate to keep them locked up for the humans safety.
This is a picture of my new babies I think they are so pretty. The white one has red splotches on the wings. I will probably be looking for girlfriends for them.
