We have a trio of solid chocolate Muscovy. One just hatched a bunch of babies and one is bright yellow. The others are correctly marked for chocolates.
Are pastel ducklings yellow? Is there some other recessive trait that can pop up as a yellow duckling?
We had a lavender drake years ago but...
Due to a chronic Mycoplasma problem and another viral problem that have entered my very mixed poultry flock I culling 100% of my birds and starting over. I am working with state vets and other industry experts and this is their recommendation which I support as I am moving soon and want a clean...
I am wanting to create a dark brown egg layer that has either a pea or rose comb for frost bite prevention in the north. My Marans boys get nailed every winter.
It would take a few generations of crossing back to Marans or Wellies to get the egg color darkened again but I have time.
I just...
I am looking for eggs or chicks of Anconas (rose comb or straight comb) as well as Speckled Sussex. Hatchery or breeder stock are both okay.
I can accept delivery any time.
Many thanks

Looking for some thanksgiving survivors to round out the flock.
I have a heritage mix hen that I would love to allow to raise poults next spring. I'd consider any heritage breed, or heritage mixes.
Thanks!

Looking for a pair or trio of heritage breed turkey. I have a lone heritage mix hen, and would like to have them breed and raise some poults for us next spring.
I'm not too picky about breed, but would be thrilled to find some Royal Palms.
I am aware that cuckoo's eggs are seldom as dark as other varieties, but decent cuckoo eggs do exist! I have one Cuckoo hen who lays a gorgeous egg, I'm just looking for some more stock to put with her.
I believe she came indirectly from Ron Presley's line, but I believe his flock has been...
Does anyone pleeeeese have any chocolate Muscovies? I swear it's like trying to find unicorns!
Ducklings are preferred, but larger birds or even eggs would be considered.
I listed Buffy a few weeks ago along with another hen, but sadly Buffy's friend got injured, and the sale was called off. She is a mild mannered little hen, about 1 year old. She lays well, and has thrown some very attractive children. I will have to check on her current weight, but if I recall...
Prince is a feisty little guy on the go! He's not mean or aggressive, just energetic. It's hard to photograph and weigh him! He comes out of parent birds from Jerry's Seramas, and is a great way to introduce blue genetics into your Serama flock. He is crowing, and is currently 9.5 ounces. The...
Little George is rapidly maturing young cockerel. He has a small crow starting. He's right at 9 ounces at this point, with a bit more maturing to do. He's a nice shiny black, with a bit of white in his hackles, but is likely holding some other fun genetics. He came out of my blue breeding pen...
John is a cute little guy, and would be great to start a buff barred project. As I don't have any buff hens, I'm going to part with him. He's still young, but has just started to find his voice. He's currently 9 ounces.

Ringo is a great looking bird. I wish I had room for him to stay forever. Alas, I need to make some room in the coop. I can't promise if he's true chocolate or if he's dun, but he's brown for sure! No black markings on him. He has just started to crow a bit, but and is currently 10.7 ounces...
Barry has been a great start to a barred and cuckoo line in my Serama program. I bought him last fall directly from Jerry's Seramas. I have seen nice results by pairing him to small black hens, and have gotten some fun mixed barred colors by pairing him with other colored hens. He weighs 20.5...
I got this pair directly from Jerry's Seramas last fall. They have blessed me with lots of great looking offspring, so I'm moving on with "my" line and letting the parents go. I have hatched chicks from this pair, as well as with each of them mated to black birds. The results were great both...
Mary is a cute little thing. She still has some maturing to do, but I've been blessed with a nice crop of blue birds this spring, so I can afford to sell a few. She is currently 8.9 ounces, and comes out of parent birds from Jerry's Seramas. There aren't many blue Seramas out there, so she would...
Paul is a handsome little fella. He is a tri-colored mottled bird, and should be carrying the chocolate gene. He has started trying to crow, but has a bit more maturing to do. He is currently 10.8 ounces.
