I don't know but it wouldn't find a home here. I'm not into "designer" chickens.


Who bucks and splits all that wood?


You beat me to it Pert!

He's not a designer chicken. Breeds that are referred to as designer are mixed up breeds. He is all bantam polish. And breed can have frizzle feathers. I sold all the LF frizzle Tolbunt pullets I took to the big swap 2 years ago. $75 each and people were excited to get them.

They were horribly root bound, so I painted a couple old pots I had and repotted.

Somebody loves her mommy! Today was Maranantha's 3rd day out in the sunshine and fresh air. She's still recuperating from an unknown whatever..Thursday I found her near dead (she was danged cold) and ants having a field day on her. She's still a bit wobbly on the legs, and outright falls over when trying to preen her back feathers when turning to the right.. But hey! She's alive..

Really, I am very flexible! I can stand up, bend over and put the palms of my hands flat on the floor. Try it.

How about "stand up, bend over and touch my fingertips to my ankles??"
Of course I'm 6' 2" so the ground is a lot farther away

He's not a designer chicken.

OK, not designer (that is why it was in quotes). How about "foofy"? I'm not into foofy chickens, nor ones that need a scarf.

We don't have bathtubs in our house. That was really only a pain in the ass when it came to washing the dogs.

I have one bathtub, and it had a spray hose hooked to shower head pipe,
because dog baths is all it's good for. All dogs gone now so holding water for power outages is all it's good for Tho the hot tub was better for that, warm 'birdy baths' during power outages.

I also hate baths, but thoroughly enjoy the hot tub. We don't have bathtubs in our house. That was really only a pain in the ass when it came to washing the dogs. Now we hook a hose to the on demand water heater in the shop and stand over the drain. Works great!

I don't have a bathtub here either. The shower is okayish but not very powerfull and getting the temperature just right can be difficult. It's a mixer system run on propane. I did until recently have an overground pipe on the roof but there wasn't enough pipe to ensure there was enough heated water for a proper shower. It was okay for the sink.

Most of it is bought in. This year we've got about two and a half tons cut and split.
Myself and one other split and I stack.

He is a Splash Bantam Fizzle polish cockerel.

He's a very unusual looking chicken.

Really pretty. Repotting should help keep them around a good while.
