EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Lucky Lemon]

WOW no crow rooster!!!

HEY KAT!!! stop this !!! I could never!

water bubbles on their heads? do you mean polish? or silkie lumps that are normal??? I thought I posted info for you and said its normal??

A vaulted skull is a hole or unclosed portion of bone in the top portion of the Silkie's skull. This genetic trait was introduced into Silkies via crosses with the Crested Polish breed of chickens. The Polish were bred into Silkies to improve and create a larger crest size.

What would you call this?

Okay, Here's my Roo Biter :

​

​

My sex linked hen/Roo :

​

He's very flighty, so I was having a hard time getting a picture of him. He got out of the baby pen, and managed to survive the cats... so apparently, flightiness has paid off. Catching him to put him back took 2 people though.

my EE Roo's :

​

On the right is the roo.

The lady next to him is Louise.

​

This is the other roo, in the corner on the left, they are thing #1, and thing #2.

They have 6 hens, total, between them.

Neither are aggressive, or mean, and they like us, though they don't go out of their way to be held or cuddled, despite my daughter wishing they were more cuddly.

She's had better luck with her silkies/cochins being cuddly. The sex linked hens are okay being touched, the polish are flighty as all get out, and the cochins are big cuddle bugs.

Our RIR likes being picked up and she's definitely our Alpha hen.

As to the roo's, I don't know if the two I've hatched so far, are males or females.

awesome!!!
