Photos of my most promising colored and crested chick, pink band! I would have gotten better photos but she isn’t a huge fan of me haha. The photo above shows her spangling on her back at a little less than 4 weeks old! I am quite excited to see how she fills out over the next few months.

Haha, I was also quite surprised at how fast these guys have been maturing as well! I was expecting to have to wait months to tell pullets from cockerels! Most of my other chicks in my batch of 9 has small horn nubs which has me worried for them all being cockerels as I can’t keep them all. My...

They are just 3 weeks old now! 1 is for certain a cockerel and another I am hesitant to say but i am pretty sure. First photo is of suspect’s wattles and the second photo is of my for sure cockerel.

I am pretty sure these two are little cockerels, their little horns are HUGE compared to my other chicks! They aren’t even three weeks old yet either! I like the second chick’s (green band) comb way more than the one in the first photo (blue band) as it is a much nicer V shape. These two don’t...

My chicks arrived today! Sadly one chamois was DOA but the rest seem to be doing very well and are running around, eating, and drinking. I plan on posting every other week updates on their growth! :)

Sweet chicken homestead is a legitimate place! I just had my 10 chicks get shipped off yesterday for my location 🥰 Nine chamois and one gold! I cropped out the information on the card as it has my information on it. They should be arriving tomorrow morning and I thankfully know someone who opens...

Question! So when picking the best chamois spitzhauben based on the coloring, what do you look for? I know the color (for a pullet/hen) is supposed to be an even buff ground color but what does that look like on a bird? Is it like a buff orpington’s color or lighter/darker? If anyone has some...

I am actually getting my chicks from next year! There was one person a while back in this thread that got chamois spitzhaubens from them and they looked pretty good. The crests on roosters are messy but the hens’ crest looks good. I really like the shape and build of their spitzhaubens though...

I just ordered 12 Spitzhauben chicks for next spring! :celebrate:weeI have been looking at this amazing breed for such a long time and I finally found a breeder! I am getting 9 Chamois spangled and 3 Gold spangled. I am really hoping for a small amount of cockerels as my neighbors would kill me...
