I think I made a frankencolor! Dark comb, red wattles, pigmented patches on neck, dark around eye skin. Is this critter recessive for the mottling gene? An alien species?It’s a….that looks gross while grooming itself. Only six weeks old.

Boy you sure look good in the sunset light! He’s a little cocky but if looks could kill… You have that light in your eyes, that burning ring of fire. I never knew that a modified pea comb could look so beautiful. All of the girls just stop and stare, even the guineas are in love. ‘What do you...

Free silkie cockerels if you take all otherwise $5 each, I have buff, blue, splash and black. I also have small bantams that are 18 weeks old. Serama and old English cross, they will be small and the pullets are docile. They aren’t all white feathered, but are pale isabell, light grey (maybe...

I have a funny one for y’all. I have a few silkies and one pullet had just developed a big crest.Her feet feathers were growing out longer from when she was in the wire bottom grow out pen. Clumsy me accidentally stepped on her one and only foot feather that wasn’t shortened. The crazy girl...

I also have a mini silkie micro mix chick. It has wittle legs.

When everyone is complaining that its cold, just sit on ‘em. He’s such a great rooster.

I have a silkie pullet that has learnt that if she pecks the top of my boot twice, I’ll pick her up and put her in my lap for snuggles. She can be so demanding sometimes, I’ll cuddle her for a few minutes then put her back on the ground, she’ll come back peck the top of my boot for more. She...

Breakfast delivered fresh!

I’ve had some…ummmm….interesting experiences that I hope only happen once in my chicken obsessed life. I had a big marans rooster that danced for me penned up until he matured. I put him in the hen house and changed the water to one that hangs from the rafters. I figured with that hunk of love...

He has found the perfect nest

I let the chickens free range and decided to grill while they were out, one of my hens was standing on the porch licking her beak as I flipped pork chops over. I’m screaming at my girl, “Don’t even think about it!” I didn’t want grilled chicken too but she sure wanted those pork chops! I had to...

Thanks

I have several broody hens and I’ve run out of brooder pens for when the chicks hatch. I also collect roosters for some freaking reason! I hope my hatch isn’t mostly roosters because I’ll for sure get attached to at least one of them. “Raise chickens they said, it’ll be fun they said” It’s fun...

Update!!!!!! The little one ain’t got no legs, it waddles!!!!! (Squeals like a little kid on the inside) Its sibling looks like a giant, lol.

I have a micro project that I’ve been working on for a few years and their temperament is absolutely amazing. They pretty much hatch out of the eggshell already tamed. They love to be cuddled, picked up and are so loving that I almost step on at least one every day. They are right underneath my...

I like your Wyandotte rooster’s feather colors. That hen is like “shut up already!” 🤣

I’m just curious to know how a splash colored ermine/paint would look!

Might be another gene, I have a micro project that has mottled and recessive whites in them. Recessive white bird from non white parents bred to Silver duckwing rooster made all sorts of colors. Isabell, blue, wheaten quail, mottled, and apparently a white silver duckwing? Bred my white duckwing...
