I have a super fancy, cute, snuggly and good natured roo. He's about 11 weeks old.
He's a silver laced, bearded Polish. Has shown zero aggression. Will sit on your lap and just relax. He would make a fantastic 4h bird. Pickup only
Ok I'm having a hard time trying to sex my silver laced polish as they don't seem to grow waddles (but a few pics do). I have been googling pictures but they mostly seem to be of full grown birds. From the pics it seems roos have white edges on their crest feathers and hend have white centers...
I’ve received nine strait run laced polish, 3 buff, 3 silver, 3 gold. Which are the silver and which are the gold? The buff are obvious, but I’ve lost one of the dark ones after shipping. (One with the white eyeshadow and yellow beak) Curious which it was.

I’m the happy mother hen to 20 fluffbottoms who will be 4 weeks old in a couple of days. I purchased the Ornamental Layer baby chick assortment from Murray McMurray and have been trying to identify several of the breeds. So far I have identified for certain:
1 buff laced Polish
1 gold laced...
Hi y'all!
So, I've been bitten by the chicken bug something fierce, and am considering showing in the next few years. (Long term planning for the win!)
We (husband, kids, and I) have a whole bunch of birds, but my favorites are the crested varieties, and I have a handful of Silver Laced...
Has anyone else had problems raising hatchery silver laced polish? I've raised three batches from three hatcheries, (Meyer, Hoover's, Ideal) all mixed colors (WCB, silver, gold, and buff) and each time lost most of the silvers. The latest batch I lost every single silver, and all the other...
