was out looking at the chickens and wondering why or how I ended up with that pr. of Egyptian Fayomas . the tail on the rooster aint right. its short and ragged looking . It must have a genetic fault. and they are, well, there just butt ugly. I seen my pet chicken ad on here and thought i would see what they are pushing this yr. beautiful pics. by the way, and there he is ! theirs are just as ugly as mine. why did i get,keep, have these chickens? found out pretty quick. they are resistant to mereks. supposed to be good foragers, flyers, blaa,blaa,blaa. I am not 100% sure the hen is fayoma. except for a nice tail they look exactly a like and the comb of course. I suspect she might be hen to the phoenix. I remember i had one of them die and i had one hen for each roo. no eggs yet either and it says fayomas mature fast. 4-5 months for eggs. I think she is this early spring putting her around 9-10 months. I also found a serama egg with my pair today. I just kept walking. LOL
