Faverolles Thread

Here is one of the chicks. I think its a pullet. Still so hard to tell.

I'm seeing a lot of black in those wings.

There is some black in there....but the toes look great!


So, Saturday the broodies finally got the chicks to come out of the tractor - boy, they had a big day, running everywhere and tasting everything!

I cleaned out the tractor, dusted it, put clean shavings in it and waited......after dark I went in the coop and one by one I moved the other 3 broodies piled up on the floor, into the tractor along with about 2 dozen eggs

I had to do it! The girls are laying more and more eggs right on top the broodies and I have no idea what's edible! So now, I can eat again

Agreed cockerel. Mine looked just like him at that age

The blacks are from my line

Anyone in MI looking for bantams? Someone has a bantam salmon trio for sale, as well as a blue/black flock. I didn't know anyone in that area had bantam blues and blacks. No shipping though.

The wing feathers look awfully black, rather than brown, to be a pullet. But I'll keep my fingers crossed that it is.

Hi, maybe if you let us know your location, and expand your have some a bit....LF, bantam, Salmon, breeder, hatchery or???? That would help us know if there is someone close to you...If hatchery ok, many feed stores are beginning to bring Salmon Faverolle chicks in now. eliz

Sorry to sidetrack but what is this 4h I see everywhere?

4h is a group where kids ages 4 or is it 5-18 learn about animals and where our food comes from. It's mainly an organization dealing with volunteering in your community and showing animals (chickens, goats, rabbits, ducks, geese, etc.). Though there are other things involved from place to place. I've been a member for 9 years.
