What chickens do you keep?

In my signature (laptop) you find a short description and the link is all about my flock changes.

Todays picture of 2 Dutch mama’s free ranging with their 3+ week old bantam Amrock hatch (bought hatchery eggs). Katrientje my bantam RIR is on the right.

Meet this promising Tsouloufati pullet. I don't lobe her colour, but her build, her crest, and her overall size is very good. I think she'll be staying around

I love her colour too.

I love her colour too.

I think she'd say thank you to that! I really like the pattern, but I'd like something other than black and white. Hopefully that will get fixed in future generations

Is there an “Irish poultry keepers” thread somewhere?

I haven't shown many pictures lately. My chicks are just about grown. The younger one still need some growth and the older ones are still working on feathering out. At this time I am planing for some shows and I am hoping the bird flu won't ruin everything.

They are looking great Abpatchy!

I made a pick up appointment for tomorrow.

Sulmtaler cockerel Tintin got a nice new home in the North of the Netherlands. The new owners have send me a nice picture.

The 3 Amrock chicks are probably 2 male and one female. I had this combination a several years ago too, and gave away the 2 cockerels at a young age. The pullet that was left with no siblings had a hard time after that. So I better keep one Amrock cockerel, at least until next spring when the pullet is confident enough to roost with the adults.

The boys:

Thomson and Thompson​

Not easy to sex these Amrocks at all. It seemed I was wrong after all.

2 months old now.
Just one boy and 2 pullets.
