salmon faverolles

My Salmon Faverolles are just over three weeks old, and two days ago I noticed black leg feathers on my suspected cockerel. Going through Google searches of Salmon Faverolles pictures, I never find black leg feathers on hens. I ordered one cockerel and six pullets, but over a decade ago the...

This appears I have a cross breed of an Ayam cemani who has an appetite and she is in good shape. She is very active in foraging. The 4 other chickens are Salmon Favorelles and it doesn't appear they like food and it is getting alarming. I have chick food as they are approximately 4-5 months...

Hello, all! I have a 6 week old salmon faverolle female chick that STINKS! And I'm not talking a normal animal stink. This one has a very sour smell. She is in good health--eats and drinks well, very active, clean vent, normal crop, clean mouth, etc. She's been stinky since her feathers started...

Hi everyone! I don’t have much experience breeding chickens yet, I’m just getting started. But I was wondering about the genetics of Easter eggers. Im hoping to get into breeding salmon faverolles as soon as I can get some chicks I like. I have 3 whittings true blue female chicks that I’m...

I have begun my journey on a frizzle salmon Faverolles project. A frizzle hen has one of my first chickens, so I have a soft spot for them. I may be ambitious but I have a rough plan. After playing on the chicken colour calculator for longer than I care to admit, I decided I wanted a silver...

Hi! I got these from a hatchery and they are supposed to be 5 pullets and 1 cockerel. At first I thought the lightest colored one (#4) was the cockerel and his feathers were coming in slower, as I read that happens with this breed sometimes and he was also the smallest one. The other 5 also...

I’m stumped. We’re not allowed to have roosters where we live, so I feel like we had terrible luck. However, I’ve also seen that breeders aren’t necessarily breeding true to the SF breed these days. Is there any chance these 3 darker chicks are pullets? They’re more grey than true black. 5 weeks...

My salmon faverolles is now laying body checked eggs - the kind with a ridge all the way around. For the last 3 weeks they have all been this way. Before that, they looked normal. She lays every other day. She is my only SF in a mixed flock of 9 hens and 1 rooster. She is at the bottom of...

Salmon faverolle rooster

We got 5 Salmon Faverolle pullets from Tractor Supply on July 1st and after reading up on them, it appears hens don’t have any black. I do already have one that’s a few years old and she has no black. I did see that if they are a bad misrepresentation of the breed they can have black but...

Hi! So I have 15 salmon Faverolles chicks from a local hatchery. They are five weeks old now. Thought I had 5 boys and 10 girls a week ago… now wondering if “Blondie” may be a boy even though she/he is all white. Look at that comb!?!? Or possibly not even a Faverolles at all? Any clue?

Good morning! I have just had a salmon faverolles hen hatch out 4 chicks. The only roosters on site have been buff orpingtons. One chick is white with a little dark dot on its head, and has 4 toes and feathered feet. I suspect it is a rooster from our light brahma hen rather than the fav that...

Francesca is a 4 month old salmon faverolles who came to us about 2 weeks ago along with two penmates (lavender orpington and blue ameraucana) who are thriving. When she arrived she laid down in the run and wouldn’t move, appeared to be depressed, but would eat laying down. She had some mild...

I opened a coop today to clean it and found my salmon faverolles, Phyllis, laying in the nesting area. I quickly apologized and closed the door. Normally, she would have just ignored me and kept laying, but for some reason she came out a minute later and started to squawk like she’d laid her...

Hey all, I am not having any luck in my local Facebook groups trying to find a pullet. I am looking for either an Ameraucana or a Salmon Faverolles pullet between 5 weeks-4 months. If you have a pure Ameraucana pullet, I am interested in lavender, blue, wheaten, or a mix of those colors. I live...
