Off topic, but yes, Spitzes are fun birds. We hatched 6 chicks in spring 2016 & kept 2 females. DD trained them last summer to come when called & land on our arm when called by name.. We chose to keep "Spitzie" and sold "Poofy." (We had a list of people who wanted to buy her. LOL) Both were affectionate, curious, intelligent, & fast. Loved the mohawks! Right before Christmas poor Spitzie was eaten by a hawk. Rather then try to hatch them again, we ordered chicks & will start all over. (I had bad luck & got 0% my 1st 2 attempts with shipped eggs, then I got 100% when a friend brought some spitz eggs back from vacation.)
This one was Poofy. She went off to live a life of luxury in a chicken coop mansion and is a very spoiled chicken.
