    Here's Fizzy (My last Dom was named Bubbles. This one is similar - but not quite the same. So she's Fizz) Fizzy is very interested in the camera. It's hard to get good full body shots. But Very Easy to get beak close-ups!

    Back to Dominiques Here are my last 3 fav chicks Purple is the most outgoing The only thing I dislike is the slightly crooked comb tip. This would be my choice but the asymmetry bothers me and I worry it might become more noticeable in time. Green is the prettiest. I like the dainty face...

    @Sylvester017 I used to breed English Orpingtons. Life changes and I had to cut back. Broke my heart to let them go. For the next 2 years I worked with the new owner teaching him about orps and deciding which were breeders or culls. He had all my best birds! I’ve the last year the roosters were...

    I actually have three girls left at the moment. However, due to the current flock size, I can only add one. I am trying to pick my favorite before people come to pick up the other two. (I already sold 2 girls and gave away the boys we hatched) There seems to be a crazy rush on chicks this year...

    Guess what I got! It’s been several years since we lost our beloved Bubbles. Time to add another Dominique.

    Here's a weird but true fact: Doms smell better than other chickens. They have a clean, after-the-rain scent. My other chickens have an earthy smell. I noticed this one day during cuddle time. Of course after noticing, I began sniffing chickens and asking others to do the same. Go ahead and...

    I've seen that before but it was always a one time fluke. How's Dana now?

    That's a very good hatch!!!! My seramas love to go broody. I usually time my incubator with their hatch. They sit on a few eggs then get about 30+chicks at hatch. (With seramas it's just easier to set up a big brooder and add a little mama hen.)

    That's exciting. Nice incubator, too. ;) I bought the same one a couple years ago. It's my go-to incubator because I can set it up quickly and not fuss with it. Plus I like how small it is.

    :hugs So sorry to hear of your loss. I remember all those pics from when they were chicks. Doms really are a great breed and we all understand what it feels like to lose a beloved pet. I still miss our dear Bubbles.

    Love the pic of the Dom in the garden. The pic of the smoke from the fire..... not so much. That's gotta be so scary.

    That's strange how they grew a cushion. Mine didn't stand very pretty when young but as she aged she looked better. (acquired the U-back stance you mentioned) I really miss my Dom, Bubbles. Perhaps you could post a few more pics so I can get my fix for pretty Dominiques.

    "Mr Green"? Are you still naming all your birds by the orig leg band color? LOL

    Dominique Thread!

    I found that the u-shaped back took a little while to develop. My younger pullets didn't "stand pretty" until they were 4-5 months old. I think they were too busy running around, avoiding the adults, and getting into mischief to flaunt their stuff. I don't breed Doms, so what I've got is...
