I have a 10 month old serama rooster who has been completely healthy up until the last couple of weeks. Now he is constantly scratching his head and I do mean constantly. He's also starting to have seizures when he's under stress or gets too excited around his ladies. The seizures last less than...
Serama chick will be 8 weeks old Oct 2nd, I’m torn on if it’s just a slow maturing Cockeral because of the spots of red or if it’s a pullet. Usually I can tell 100% by this age. I’ve attached a photo of its full sibling, who is without a doubt a roo. First 2 photos are chick in question, last...
4 week old serama chick. Any advice on how to treat this? I have no idea what happened to his/her face. They were fine last night. Any ointments safe for face injuries?
Rescue take in, person said she was a Silkie, clearly that’s not the case. I was leaning towards Cochin cross? She’s got feathered feet, super dark skin color, she’s not very large.
Not the best photos because she’s a fast little thing, but would you say she’s a full turken or cross? And about how old do you think she is? She’s a rescue, took her in on 6/28 covered in sticktight fleas.
I got this pretty girl today from a local breeder. The breeder said she came from an ordered hatching egg set and not her personal stock. Does she look like a pure Cochin bantam? I was sure since her feet have some black. Also what color would she be considered?
Hello, I’m new to breeding and would love to know more of what possibilities I would get. I have 2 Roos, who I’m not sure on which to keep.
Roosters:
1 Barred
1 White Frizzle
Hens:
1 Barred
1 Red Frizzle
1 White Frizzle
3 Splash
I do know not to put frizzle and frizzle together so if I got...
I paid for 2 “show quality” pullets but I’m starting to believe I got a cockerel who’s got a slow feathering gene. Does this look like one cockeral and one pullet to you? They are around 9-11 weeks old(not sure exact age but I’ve had them 7 weeks now)
Ignore their filth they just ate watermelon...
Pinkish waddles already, cockerel? 3 weeks old so I know it’s a bit early, I was really hoping for a pullet.
2 if it’s siblings are already showing red combs but no waddles like this one.
I hatched 6 seramas on 2/24 and I’m stumped on this one. The other Roos in the group developed crazy fast but the other pullets have no combs so is this just a late bloomer roo like I’m thinking? It hasn’t crowed once but it’s two brothers crow none stop.
The first 2 pics are the chick in...
I ordered some barred Cochin bantam eggs and this little one was an odd ball and my only non black baby. Safe to say it’s a frizzle already? They hatched on the 16th, so a week old today. No idea what color it will end up but hey, it’s cute.
I’m a first time hatcher and I ordered some eggs on eBay. Almost all came with terrible saddle air cells. Only 3 have made it this far and kept the bad air cells. Tomorrow is lockdown day but when I candled tonight to pull bad eggs I saw this one and wasn’t sure if it looked like it was trying...
I have 3 speckled Sussex all around 25 weeks old but not laying yet, looking at her comb it’s not as bright as I’ve seen in photos so I was wondering if they are not mature yet and that’s why we’re not getting eggs yet. I am very new to chickens.
I asked when this one was around 6 weeks old and was told possible rooster. Asking for an update now that “he” is almost 3 months old. I’m aware it’s really hard to sex at young ages, I just really want to keep this one. Also, can anyone verify that he is indeed a splash coloration? I purchased...
