    cute little BYC

    I picked up a new hen today that is a total mutt but I think she's so pretty. She's on the small side, has 5 toes, feathered toes and shanks, and a head crest. the crest is bigger than my crested cream legbars. I feel like she's a Faverolle-Ameraucana-?? cross but I don't know much about head...

    Silkie chicken grooming & bathing butts & feet

    Wanted to share a great natural bristle brush I found for bathing my silkies and keeping their beards, butts & feet clean, without damaging their delicate feathers. The bristles are made of natural wool & super soft, but stiff enough to clean. There actually a facial brush for people but perfect...

    Bleeding & Inflamed Feathered Feet on a Rooster

    Hello and Please Help!!! My 5 month old rooster Thorin has had red and inflammation at the base of his hair follicles on his feet and legs. It has gradually gotten worse and I can’t find anything like it online and I’m hoping for some insight to determine what this came from. After noticing it...

    Are feathered feet breeds harder or more maintenance than clean legged breeds?

    We’re in zone 7, in Tennessee. Our winters mostly average 15-20 degrees F, but we did have a week or a little over that where it was -4 F last year, during the big storm. We have a covered run on a hillside and are able to do deep litter in their coop. We get some humid and rainy times. I’ve...

    What are these yellow fluffs?

    I’m new to chickens and can’t figure out what breed(s) of chickens these two blondes are. Can anyone give me an idea? They’re both about 6 weeks with chipmunk cheeks (muffs?) and heavily feathered feet. Initially, they were all the same size, but now the two yellow ones are a bit smaller than...

    "Barred Rock" Chick with Feathered Feet?

    I have some questions about the breeds of my chicks, which are not as the seller described. So I had a broody hen, and I decided to give her hatching eggs. Since we don't have a rooster, we ordered a set of 12 eggs on eBay. The seller's description was as follows: "Assorted mix which consists...

    Hello all, thank you for having you here. This April will be my one-year mark of becoming a chicken owner, and I have reached my first roadblock that I cannot seem to overcome. I have two buff Brahma among my clean legged birds. Mid January I noticed that one of them had lost considerable amount...

    Chicks with feathered feet

    My mixed flock of barred (and barred rooster) and red/white/black laying hens (all standard) have produced 2 little chicks with feathered feet. None of the flock have feathered feet. They are the cutest little things but I don't know how it happened? Any ideas? Thanks.

    Jazzi confusion!!

    Hi, I have posted about Jazzi before about her breed and gender but here I am at 8 weeks with no clue!! We originally thought she was a Faverolle, but someone on here mentioned she could be a Brahma or both so we now think that is right and she is a mix of both. She has extremely fluffy feet...

    Keeping Faverolles (and other bearded/feathered-food breeds) clean

    I have one Salmon Faverolles hen. She's the only chicken I've had with a beard and feathered feet, and it just seems like she's always uncomfortable and dirty compared to my other chickens. Her beard and feet are always encrusted with dirt, and I'm constantly having to clean her bottom. I...

    What is this fellow mixed with?

    This is my one rooster from all of the rescue birds I took in this year, I found him in a box with a ton of silkies and one little Cayuga duckling about six weeks ago. They were all sick but he, a black Silkie, and the Cayuga survived. He’s obviously Silkie (5 toes and hyper melanated) but mixed...

    Breed?

    I’ve been guessing on this sweet little bantam since I brought her home. She is a little over 6 weeks old. Super small with heavily feathered feet. Just developed this adorable beard/muff thing in the last week or so! Any ideas what breed she might be? Was thinking just from my internet...

    Why is my baby chick feet red?

    Hi good day What are my baby chick's feet turning red? I've never seen this before. Are they red bumps? He walks and eats like normal, but occasionally he'd raise up his tiny foot and peck at it. And I also I am seeing him standing on one leg now? I took the mud off under his feet already but...
