Thank you!

I hatched him out from phoenix eggs I ordered from a breeder off eBay. Unfortunately, 8/10 eggs were rotten on arrival…Victor was the only one that made it (he’s my miracle chicken). As disappointing as the exchange was, it was worth it to have him.

. He is such a sweet boy and serious eye candy!
Good eye! The others in my flock are frizzled EE-Silkie mixes (also from eBay eggs and their progeny).
We have rescue parrots, small to large. Even though the parrots are indoors, I was worried about the spread of disease from hatchery chickens…I figured hatching eggs would reduce the risk. Of course, now I have 5 roos and 4 hens

, but everyone gets along.
