Hi there... curious where you purchased these from. We have some of the last genetics from Greenfire Farms (purchased their breeding stock when they moved on). We currently have curly hens, a flat-feathered roo and a curly roo. Looking to add some diversity. Would love to know more about yours. Thanks!
We just hatched 3 Lyonnaise eggs from Sugar Feather farm although not sure of the genetic quality as far as breed standards go. All 3 are pretty but only 1 is totally solid black. One is black and white and the other is black with a tinge of gray on the tips of its feathers. Not sure if I have hens or roos yet, but looking for as much info on the breed as I can get as they are so rare here.
 
When looking at her today it seem like the back toe is infected. There was no outward signs of infection when she started limping. She also has the callous and the next joint. It looks a little yellow around it too. So treatment? I have experience with removing infection from bumble foot. I had a couple the other year and I did my neighbors as well. I also have pen G and I think 2 other injectable antibiotics. Do I start with antibiotics or remove the infection first? Hopefully it will be the original cause of the limping, because I checked her foot, leg and joints. She has full use of the leg and the foot. She just doesn't want to stand on it if she doesn't have to. TIA

here's a picture of our flockOut of curiosity, what is the comb pattern for your cockerel?
Same as yours. Now I just need a curly hen
