    Open Contest Cutest Couples Photo Contest—Poultry Edition

    Thanks for the heads up! I thought that since chickens are not nearly as monogamous as us humans, it could still count, but I obviously did not read the rules as thoroughly as I should :oops: . Apologies for that

    They look like cockerels. The photo isn’t very clear on the first, but that looks like some serious comb growth

    Question of the Day - Tuesday, January 27th, 2026

    Nope, never heard of it before. Sounds quite cool actually, but I will definitely not be trying it (fake tree, among other reasons)

    Now that’s an incredible achievement! They really aren’t common recommendations for cold climates, so that should probably change (though too much popularity rarely ends well). I remember you saying something about the Buff and the White Chantecler having distinctly different genealogies; a...

    Thanks. Losing Cruella was probably the hardest. You know me, I can’t shut up in general, much less when it comes to Cruella. I actually though about them in relation to SFHs, but I opted out of posting that, because I was sure I’d butcher the name :lol: . A mix between a Chantecler and a SFH...

    Yeah, odd that there isn’t. I know nothing about SFH genealogy, but it is strange that out of all the genes, the straight comb prevailed. Same with the Icelandic. That mix would certainly be interesting, quite the catch for the cold climate free ranging peeps as well

    Oh, poor Piglet:hmm. Hope she bounces back after a cozy sleepover. Those temps really need to return to normal

    Oh he’s STUNNING :love :eek: ! Shame he’s going to be losing some of it. One would have thought that SFHs would be better suited for, well…Swedish weather. But a single comb is a single comb, I guess. At least you’ve got this gorgeous photo (and many others I imagine) to remember his glorious...

    Ah, I see. Apologies if I have you confused with another member, but now that you mention the single combed birds, I do remember a gorgeous SFH cockerel that you had posted about. Or at least I think that was you… :oops: I really hope he isn’t losing asignificant part of his comb and wattles...

    Oh, very sorry to hear :hugs . I know you mostly keep pea combed birds, which I would have thought would not be so susceptible to frostbite, but it seems this cold is merciless

    Well, every chicken of mine that you know is dead, other than Ursula. Predator attacks, disease, a few sudden/natural deaths, the culling of two males, and more predator attacks have left us with 9 LFs and 4 bantams in total

    Ah, the notorious black flies! The black fly song has become a bit of an addiction; I’ve sung it to the chickens more than once :p . They liked it too!
