ralphie so sad, I had dogs growing up but never long enough. My oldest dog is around 5 now, but she's a yorkie/maltese and I feel like will live until 18 even. She never exerts herself. My other dog is young and she just turned 1 in easter. I think the first to go will be my maine coon cat...

That's great to hear! The salmon faverolle I got from you is he/she large fowl or bantam? The ones I just got are all bantam. The polish are bantam too. It's weird because I've just ended up with a lot of bantam breeds even though I originally wanted all large fowl. It's hard to resist...

Sorry for your loss, I don't know what I would do if I lost any of my dogs. I am still dreading the day that happens. They're all young and I've never experienced having a dog die before =(

sorry everyone I can't get over how cute these little things are and they are so energetic and crazy I love them so much ahhhhh!!!

also just picked up some babies from destiny!

3rd night in their coop, they looooove it!

Thanks for the help Minnie, we've been keeping a close eye on them since. Is it possible those faverolle's just weren't healthy to begin with? All the other breeds are doing great. They spent the night in the coop with a heat lamp and I just checked them this morning =) Everyone's there and...

When I checked on them, they had fluid that was like snot textured and stringing out of their mouths. They had labored breathing and were collpased like they couldn't breathe =(

btw we are almost done with the coop =)

Is coccidiosis breed specific? All of our birds are healthy, we just had an incident last week where only 3/4 of our faverolles were affected. They looked like they were choking and gasping for air and when I massaged their crops, they threw up water constantly.

That's true. Ha, the fiance told me to ask you guys. Looks like this guy will be going somewhere else soon.

so apparently bird flu is all over mn right now, should we be worried? The little babies are ready to go in their new coop, I wanted to get them in there today or tomorrow =)

Please let me know if you do end up coming out this way! I love faverolles and it was so hard to find the 4 chicks and I'm not sure if the one we have left is a chick or a rooster =\ I'm glad at least one is alive though!

we lost 3 baby salmon faverolles last night =( I think they had a sour crop, there's one faverolle left. So sad, they were around 3 weeks or so. 2 of them died in my hand while throwing up water

Wow that is so good to know, I would prefer to go that route. (selling extras off so I don't have to deal with it.) I was just about to question how much meat could really be on these tiny guys ! I mean when they're full grown, they're still just cute babies right now. lol

Thanks for being so honest Minnie. Just curious, why are asian communities interested in purebreed birds? It must be a cultural preference? I have 20 chicks so far, but I have a feeling I will have 5 of them be roosters. I was planning on seeing if anyone wanted them, if not, culling them...

so I recently bought some chicks from a breeder that said they were 98 percent female or something like that. What do you supposed she did with the males? Also, I've noticed some people on craigslist are looking for roosters only, is that just because they want to breed?

Not yet and I feel like he's the one making all the noise already! And I have a feeling he has a brother..

He's 4 weeks and from windland flats in princeton, mn.

Nope, it is my lavender orpington. Two look hugeeeeeee and one smaller. And the huge ones squeek a lot lol
