Thanks!! She is a Serama its good to hear that perhaps her adults feathers will be better I will update when she is older she's so sweet I really hope her adult feathers come in nice!

Thank you, what could cause this? I have pulled her as she was getting picked on a bit but I do not want to breed any that have a low quality the parents have nice feathers did she just not win the genetics lottery? She has a very sweet temperament and will make a nice pet

Hello all, I have started my Serama breeding program and had my first egg hatch a week before Christmas, one of my hens hatched 2 sweet babies. I have one Pullet and One Cockerel. Both the parents are smooth feathered however this little Pullet looks like maybe she's a frizzle? I dont have any...

Oh my goodness thank you for posting! I am new to Sarema's and want to start a breeding project to try and breed for show so standard would be important. I am having trouble finding good info could you please help with any good books or articles you found helpful thanks!!!

A Frazzle is an over frizzled chicken sometimes people call them extreme curly it is the result of mating a frizzle to a frizzle (defiantly not desired) you are right that the frizzle gene is not completely dominant but if you mate the frizzle to the frizzle you can get 25%smooth 50%frizzle and...

Aww I'm sorry! You are correct and doing the right thing by rehoming, you know how many health issues can come for Frazzles! but do you have a separate area to keep him with hens that are not frizzle? Thats a possibility? Have a great day Beautiful Babies!

The one with the black in the tail may be RIR looks like my girl named Red lol the one with the white in the tail looks like my Novogen brown

I picked up some chicks in March that I was told were SLS turns out they were black copper Marans luckily this is a breed I was also looking for so It worked out! I agree with everyone here probably cuckoo Marans on your little one. Seems like a theme this year for SLS to be labeled on the...

If your on Facebook I just saw in the rooster rehome WA group that someone had a Serama Roo they were looking to rehome

Thank you! I was under the impression that most bantams were the size of silkies so that's good to know! These little OEB are really great little birds they free range with the big chickens and you would think they were giants lol they have no fear! My chickens don't seem to have any concern...
