They were the ones I saw in the sales barn. We bought them Saturday Morning right after we put our show birds in their cages, so maybe I stole them away before you even saw them XD

Definitely, thank you,lol.

Thanks! That is my Blue Ameraucana, Bruce. I love his lighter beard. His body is all dark blue, so its really cool. His beak is cool too,lol.

There's his body,lol.

Wow.. that's all I can say..

I went to my first show last fall.. nothing like your show. Ours was so tiny compared to that! And maybe... 10 different breeds for sale. That was IT. Oh, and some cute baby ducklings.. and a woman that tried to talk us into buying her RIR cockerals (they were beautiful.. but we felt a little.. um.. attacked)


Thanks for posting your pics!

That is a silver phoenix rooster. If kept in the correct environment their tails can grow VERY long. I believe they come in both bantam and standard varieties, I can't tell if that ones a bantam or not in that picture, though I'm thinking its a standard.
Here's a pic of one with a VERY long tail:

I would say that's a standard. Phoenix are pretty small and yes Kanchii is right, they come in both bantam and standard varieties.

I miss my Phoenix roo!

 

[Crazy4Chicks]

OMG what a tail !! I am sure they are very expensive to get as chicks - I dont think I could ever have one and have it be able to keep such a long tail, but one can always dream......

Nope I don't think they are particularly more expensive. I bought two phoenix pullets for my friend at the show in fact, one was $35 and the other was only $15.
