polish chicken

Hello, I am desperate for advice! Three days ago we found our 3 month old Polish all lethargic, sitting quietly in the middle of the coop. I brought him in and recognized he was anemic (pale wattles, crest, face, weak). My guess is that the grown up hens or other roosters did not let him eat...

I was thinking of getting at least one Silver Laced Polish to go in my new flock but was wondering if it was safe since they’re so skittish? The new flock so far has a Welsummer, a Dominicker, a Rhode Island Red, and an Easter Egger. I don’t want to get a Polish and have it be tortured by the...

Can anyone possibly tell me if this sweet little 10 week old Polish chicken (Athena) is a hen or rooster? The one photo with the other polish chicken - she is obviously a hen, but what about Athena? She was named after the goddess of the hunt because she is very alpha and smart from the...

My Polish baby is about 5 weeks old. I know Polish are notoriously hard to sex but I have also read about streamers in the crown and I was wondering if this has a rooster look? I get rooster vibes from the babe so just curious before I get so attached as we can’t have roosters where I live.

I pressed the wrong button when doing an online shipment of Polish chicks and other crested chicks. In summary I need to distribute about 20 Polish chicks ASAP. Arrival date is expected to be Feb 9. They will be newly hatched. Please help. I feel silly. I am currently open to advice, creative...

Yesterday I woke up and saw my polish rooster acting weird. He was standing up with his tail pointing down towards the ground. At first I thought he was just cold because this is the coldest it has been this year (55F low) and thought he would probably warm up and be okay. Today when I woke up...

I have a polish chicken that got frost bite on both of her feet last winter and lost them. She can’t walk but can hobble fly to the food and watering dish. I don’t want her to hate her life but I also don’t want to put her down. I take her outside on nice days so she gets some sun. And it seems...

Good morning all! Three questions about POLISH HENS. With a mixed flock how long did it take to inter-grate your polish with other chickens? And do you trim their little mop tops? And lastly how do they fair in the weather? I have been reading they don’t do well outdoors in cold climates...

Hi! I’m looking for some Polish breeders near Upstate NY. Any help would be appreciated!

I love all chicken breeds, but I absolutely love polish chickens! Not only do they look beautiful and hilarious, they are well known for being friendly and have great personalities. I don't own them (yet) but my silkie, Pippin is sitting on 6 polish bantam eggs. Hopefully they hatch so Pippin...

New member here! I bought a “polish” babes from my local feed store but having the hardest time figuring out if it’s a white crested black or white crested blue polish. Almost 100% it’s not a silver laced. But what do you think based on coloring? It was with a bunch of white crested blacks but...

OK yall so we have 6 chickens, all raised together with ample room. Eagle which is the Polish is getting more of her crest, I noticed yesterday she had a "bald spot" and today it's even bigger. I don't know if this is from other plucking her feathers or if it's new feathers coming in. If they...

Any ideas hen or rooster ... thanks everyone in advance

Update on my roo Lucifer, he's been molting for a while and he's almost completely white now! I'm shocked at how much he's changed in just 3 months.. I'm still really confused over why though. Could he be a splash or something? or could it maybe be some skin disorder? All the pinfeathers I've...
