white

I have the chance to buy a call drake out of exhibition lines, but i didn’t know if he was more pet quality or if he was breeder/show quality and was wondering if anyone could tell me before I purchase him? I already have pet quality ducks and want to work towards show quality. Thanks

A few days ago I woke up to let my 6 week old chicks out and 4 of them were ganging up one one of them. They completely scalped her. It was just open muscle in the top of her head. I tried to clean it up and I’m keeping her inside with me while she heals. About two days ago I noticed this white...

My problems just keep coming.... For the last 7 days I’ve noticed all of my goose flock has increased urates, something’s bothering their kidneys. I’ve also noticed very mild respiratory problems, the occasional head flicking, sounding slightly congested with slightly runny noses in the...

This spring we hatched out chicks from our own eggs and out of one of the eggs came a big fluffy white chick who turned out to be a cockerel. Well today I decided to pick him up and noticed there were vague stripes on his feathers. Is it dirt? Does he have very lightly barred feathers? Why and...

Hi! I have some Ameraucana from different lines that I'm used to and I'm a bit confused about sexing them. If anyone can help me? Thank you! Born January 1rst 2021.

Hello, I keep cochin bantams And I’d love to see some pics of some other Cochin bantams!

Hello, I recently came across this photo: and I was wondering how hard this would be to find and breed into a Polish variety. I also really like the thought of bringing barring into a bird like this and getting barred crested white Polishes. Thinking about the genetics of blue in chickens I...

White Silkie rooster

Silkies, rooster in forefront

Hi! today I noticed one of my Silkie’s bum area looked a little off. Sometimes with my Silkies when they poop it leaves little residue on the very tip of the fuzzy bum hair (assuming that’s it’s because of all that hair and it doesn't just plop straight down?) but hers had a white mucus coming...

One month old. So when do they hit the "ugly cute" stage? We are so in love!

I have a gosling that I initially thought was a buff, but I noticed he has blue eyes. My two girls that are the possible moms are a Classic Roman and an American Buff. More than likely the Roman is the mom. The possible dad’s are Leo and Parsnip, French Toulouse, and French Toulouse? Leo is...

I’m not all that great with chicken color combos yet but I’m Curious as to how I got this white chick with random/few black feathers out of my last hatching? And what she possibly is? None of my chickens are white but I do have a lavender roo and my hens are chocolate orphingtons, RIR, cinnamon...

I had requested Russian Pav but this one came and is clean legged with extra toe. Any ideas?

Hi all, Background: adopted 6 chickens off Craigslist 2wks ago. Added to single hen (remnant of fox decimated flock) at home. Affected hen is a new one. Was healthy at adoption. Sold as 2yo barred rock. Situation: everyone was normal, eating, drinking, flocking. I was checking frequently...

I bought these two ducks last spring and they weren't the correct breed I ordered. So I am going to try again and purchase the breed I am looking for. They are in great health. 1 female and 1 male The male is gentle. Havent had any problems. Has bred successfully with female. Located in metro...

So I know it was one of my 4 ducks! It was a small white duck egg. My silver appleyard has been laying her big eggs and my runner just started up her greenish eggs. My last two are muscovy and magpie. I'm thinking it was my magpie since she's 7-8 months old and my muscovy is 5-6 months old and...

Does anyone have any idea what breed of white chicken these are? I got them from a “random pullet” box at Rural King, so it can’t be too exotic. Also, they have huge feet, so I’m a little wary of the “pullet” distinction. Thanks for your thoughts! New member Heather
