    Hoover Hatchery Mixup Part 2

    I ordered a dozen silkies from Hoovers and several were very clearly not silkies. Identified 2 already as likely a golden laced Cochin bantam and a barred Cochin bantam but here’s a few more that I’m not sure on. Chick 1: golden lacing and feathered legs, very brave, phenomenal flyer Chick 2...

    Hoover hatchery mixup

    I purchased a dozen silkies and about 5 of them are definitely not silkies. This is one of them. Any ideas?

    Urgent Poop Question - Updated - Positive for Coccidia

    So my three week old chick who also happens to be sneezing just pooped this out. It's very scary looking to me. Is it abnormal? I looked at the poop pictures, but couldn't find one that looked EXACTLY like it. I'm having a nervous breakdown at this point. I'm really considering quitting chickens.

    Achoo - Now they're all doing it Updated with a picture of sneezer

Any of you BYCers breeders who have any chicks for sale? Any help would be greatly appreciated! If this is in...

    She was supposed to be a Polish! UPDATED: Several weeks later!

    But now I'm not so sure what she is! Can anyone help? I'm sorely disappointed because the agreement in my family was that we could get six productive chickens and I could have ONE fancy, ornamental chicken! So we got three Leghorns and three Ambers. I decided on a Polish and went to pick her out...

    What breed of chick did they sell me?

    I'm brand new here, but I thought you Chicken People could help me! I love this forum and have enjoyed lurking for the past few months! So a few days ago I went to Coastal Farm and Ranch with the intention to buy one, solitary Polish chick! I was very excited, because she was to be my fancy...
