I found someone who was re-homing buff, white, black, and blue hens! Then I got a splash rooster to go with them!

I’m jealous!!! lol

I have another auestion!! I’m sorry guys!!! I was told these two black juveniles were slick Japanese bantams. But i can’t find anything on that breed! Google, Pinterest, even on here! Is this a satin or a smooth???? Because i have eggs in the incubator she labeled as the same breed

Those are definitely not “slick Japanese bantams”, they look like mixes

They might be a Satin, but I’m not familiar with the Breed.

I have larger woodchips in my run so it didn't get muddy.
U have sand?

I don’t, we’d need quite a bit and it’s in a weird spot for adding it in…wood chips might work there though!

I too would say a satin mix…not sure what they are calling it though. Never heard of those!

This is the slick Japanese bantam rooster i got from her.
And the little black hen with the random white on her head i was told was a slick Japanese bantam.

I re-cooped the hen, they wanted an egg layer and didn’t care about the breed. But no one has wanted Pretty Bou because there is no info on his breed

I've never heard of that as a breed either.

At least I’m not the only one! she’s a Silkie owner and she helped me get my Silkie and frizzle pairs going. She gave me the hen, rooster, 2 juvenile and eggs. But i haven’t put the rooster with a coop because idk what he is! And the juveniles will be the same way when they get bigger! I guess i could put the roo and juveniles together lol but they kind of look like smooth silkies to me. I just don’t know much about the smooth and satin side!
