i also have a frizzle Cochin, black silkie, and a GL polish I’m...
Hi all! So, I incubated 7 chicken eggs and sadly only ended up with 3. Anyways there is one chick that looks very different to other polish chicks that I’ve hatched before. So I’m wondering if it’s a frizzle. I bought my eggs from a woman that only sold Poland hatching eggs and there may well be...
Hi, my little 9 week buff orpy's feathers seem to be curling up instead of smooth like her 2 sisters. also bare spots underneath. I haven't seen any picking, but she also seems thin. Her breast bone is very prominant.
I recently got silkie chicks and just learned about sizzles when my silkie Aurora got curly feathers(black chick in image attached) and I’ve learnt you can’t breed sizzles together. This leads to my question, does my roo look like a sizzle, or is it too early to tell? I want to be prepared if I...
I picked up two silkies today at a swap. The person told me they are 4 months old but gave no further information. The frizzle has 4 toes. The other has 5. Both have black skin and grey/slate everything else. Gender and breed guesses would be appreciated. Thanks
I was given these 2 beautiful frizzles. I love them so much but they are getting too big for my brooder box. I've been waiting to try and see if I can figure out the gender before deciding if I can keep them. Please help. The pics look red on the combs but they are really not. Just a tiny Hugh...
Hi guys. I am looking for some help.i have 8 silkie/frizzle chicks and was wondering if anyone could tell me what each of them may be (hen/roo). I know they are hard to sex, and they are young but I thought I'd give it a go now.
thanks in advance.
P.s sorry about the pics. Trying to get them to...
I have a week old chick that definitely looks like a frizzle! The girl I got him (we've been calling it a 'him' because it's so much bigger than its siblings and it's got a bit of an attitude :p) from has a silkie roo, a BCM roo and a cream legbar roo. She's not sure what breed her frizzle hens...
Hey guys! One of my chickens has recently gone broody, and we decided that now would be a perfect time to raise another baby chick. Our flock is half bantam, half standard, and currently, we're looking for a bantam to add to our flock. If anyone in washington has bantam chicks (any breed except...

In my eight years of chicken keeping, I have never heard of a Sizzle, until today. I have owned both Frizzles and Silkies.(Though not at the same time.) I would love to see your pictures of these adorable birds!
I have a baby Jersey giant chick that I ordered from Tractor Supplies website and something’s off about it. It’s four weeks old and all the other chicks are feathering out like normal but this particular chick isn’t feathering out like the others. She only has feathers on her wing tips and the...
10 week old showgirl/ frizzle .... Initially thought it was possibly a hen but now not sure. When the young rooster crows we have heard another in the pen croaking like they are starting to crow, and when he's going off, she/he straightens out and stands tall? Any ideas what I've got here?? Was...
Hi all!

I am looking into getting a couple chicks with crests into our flock in the spring (I'm obsessed with how cute they are:love). The thing is that our town doesn't allow roosters...
