  1. International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I hear there are a few pockets of temperate rainforest left, especially on old noble grounds or the king's forest, or Wales. Is that right? I wish I could visit some day, seeing a place steeped in visible history where there are useable buildings over 1000 years old is simply magical to me. My...

    I heard the British Isles were getting some winter weather! Mine stop laying by mid October and won't start again until I either turn on the lights or wait until spring. Usually I turn on the lights around mid December so I can start hatching in January. We also got a little snow. I suppose...

    how are the birds dealing with the cold these days? I have slightly sized down my single combs, although I know they are SUPPOSED to be large single, I tend to angle towards medium single in some birds when they show up. 🙃

    It was cool, but not particularly wet today. It rained a little last night, supposed to be the big freeze tonight so I did pick down all of the garden goodies today, because today is the last day for tomatoes. Usually they don't get this long to grow so hooray?

    Also, treats like corn should make up no more than 10% of your overall calories:D

    Silkies technically don't have the normal top layer of feathers that keep the air layer locked in. They can be ok in our climate, but keep an eye when it gets really cold. Typically, the chickens breeds that do best are those that have rose combs, pea combs, or v combs. Large single combs...

    This dude is finally starting to fill in his tail. He's also gaining some mass. So excited to see him mature!

    this guy has more red shoulder that I can see, keep an eye on him. These guys are slow growers so they take so long to mature that being small at first can sometimes make you overlook them. Nice long back, pointy tail. His comb is a little messy, though.

    Rosabelle died today. She had been going downhill, but we thought she was making a recovery. Apparently, the other hens in with her started to attack her. They killed and ate her, so my oldest is rather sad today. Rosabelle was 11 years old, so she had been with us for a long time, as far as...
