IT is 4 month old today and hasn't crowed. I have no clue if it's a hen or roo .. I think it's a hen because of the saddle feather NOT showing strong. Behind her is an olive egger roo and I see saddle feathers more defined on him even though he is younger. But I am not sure...
My Polish Eli and my Serama Sassy.
My Bantam hatch rate ended up being pretty high in the boy ratio sassy squats So I’m praying she’s a girl. Still on the fence about Ellie

Update : I think I figured it out , the pecking really only stared when thier extra top head feathers...
Hey y’all! So hopefully I can make my question clear. If you are familiar with the Polish showing realm you would know that you don’t want white tips on their wings. If a bird I have has white tips on their wings (which a few do) how would I go about breeding that out? i want the white tips out...
This is my first thread! 🎉 I have recently gotten my hands full with 17 chickens! (We actually had 54 meat birds too, they’re gone now... more coming in 10 days ;-; ) Now I have tried to do some research on Polish chickens before. Certain questions that I guess aren’t popular. So here, is a...
7 days ago my polish hen was injured when my frizzle rooster, then my Wyandotte trying to jump on her back. She just kinda went down and hadn’t been able to walk since. I’ve nursed her continuously for 7 days: I feel like we are finally in a real good place as she has been able to stay in her...
Hello! I would like to know what is the difference between a Padovana and a Polish chicken.
Is a Polish bearded a Padovana? Or there are more differences in these breeds? Is it a difference between american and european classification? They have different listing on wikipedia...
