Golden pheasants

geoffdog — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 17:34:44 +0000

The Golden Pheasant i find to be one of the most brath taking pheasants their is. It has beautiful father patterns of all difrent colors. It has a beautiful ornge with black stripes going across its neck with a golden crown over its head with a red chest, as see in the images provided above. They also have they most beautifulhe golden eyes that I have ever seen in any game bird today. Golden Pheasant is also refered to as the Chinese Pheasant. They are mostly found in China but are also found in many other parts of the warld. The female (hen) is much less showy, with a duller mottled brown plumage similar to that of the female Common Pheasant. They feed on the ground on grain, leaves and invertebrates like warms and bugs. They can fly but most of them prefer to run but if startled they can suddenly burst upwards at great speed. Although they can fly in short bursts they are quite clumsy in flight and spend most of their time on the ground. Golden Pheasants lay up to 8 or12 eggs at a time and will incubate (sit on the egg to keep them warm) these for around 22 to 23 days. They also tend to eat berries, grubs, seeds and other types of vegetation.

I also would like to say im sorry to all my viwers that i have not been making any new posts for the last few mouths school have just started up agian and I have hade no time to make any new posts but I should start up making new ones for im getting more time back on my heads to work on my blog! thanks agian for yall that stayed with me and love mu blog thank you vary much!

The Mille fleur is a small bantam breed of chicken. The Mille fleur is a big show bird for 4H shows. The Mille fleur form what i have been told and have seen are one of the kindes bird out of the bantom breeds and maybe out of the larger breed of chickens to. Also the Mille fleur from what i have seen live a vary long time i hade one that lived to about 9 years old! she was a nice bird she would follow me around the yared and would let me pick her up when ever. the Mille fleur is also a good egg laying bird small eggs and lays in summers and springs but not in the winter. They also have vary cute chicks =P the Mille fleur is perfect for people who have never had chickens befor and don’t have a lot of space for bigger birds.

geoffdog — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 15:44:23 +0000

The Silver Sebright is much the same as the Golden Sebright the only thing that are not the same are there colores. The Silver Sebright is the same size, shape, weigh the same, ext. They are also big in 4-H showsshows like the Golden Sebright but maybe be even better. that is really all I can say about the Silver Sebright.

What to do if your chick is having feet problems

geoffdog — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 18:53:16 +0000

Now there is this strang thing going around with the chicks where I live. One of my chicks and chicks of other people I know have been having stang feer problem . I did not know what to do at first and I thoguht my chick was just going to die. So I started asking people what to do and no one seemed to know what to do! At that point I started to get a little scared. Then one day someone I know told me she found out! She had a chick with the same problem and she said to wrap its tow so they don’t curl up (one of the things that where happening to the chick) so I did that. Then she said to also give it vitamin D 2 to 3 times a day but do not give it to much vitamin D or it would kill the chick. So after a 2 weeks of doing that every day and keeping its two raped up she was walking agian! But it might not always help I am sad to say. So if you have a chick thats tows are curling up and it starts duing the splits abnd putting its feet out then you might want to do what i did for my chick.

So if you have anything to ask about this ill try my best to help you out so if you need help comment on my post thanks agian! I also hope I helped out the people who have hade chicks with this problem and I wish them the best of luck with their chicks

Golden Sebrights

geoffdog — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 18:21:24 +0000

Golden Sebrights are small bantams that where developed by John Saunders Sebright in the 19th century. The Golden Sebrights is a nice looking bird that is also grate to enter in to 4-H shows because of its little body and its grate father patern. The Golden Sebright is among the most popular of bantam breeds. They also lay tiny, white eggs and are not kept for meat production. I also think that if you wanted a little pet to make your back yared look good then I would get Golden Sebrights. Its also nice to have them because they don’t take up so much room and their chicken pin can be small making it not hard to clean.

Golden Phoenix

geoffdog — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 22:04:01 +0000

The Golden Phoenix came from Japan and now can be fould all over the US and other countrys. The Golden Phoenix is a larg Breed. Also the Golden Phoenix roosters has the largest tail of all chicken breeds. Its tail can get up to an average 4′ feet long and historically have been up to 15′ to 20′ feet long! I am sad to say that I don’t know the last time a Golden Phoenix’s tail was longer then 15′ feet but I know it can happen.

White Peafowl

geoffdog — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 19:17:27 +0000

The White Peafowl is the most beautiful of all birds I think. I mean all Peafowl are beautiful but the white one im just in love with. Most people don’t know to much about this beautiful bird. Most people do not this about the Peafowl but the peafowl is part of the pheasant family. You also my know the peafowl as the peacock. But they are really not called peacock they are peafowls. Peacocks are what you call the male Peafowl and you call the female peafowl a peahen. I wish i could have one of these beautiful brath taking birds but my grandpa would not let me because they make loud noises that most people can’t stand but if you can put that a side they make grate birds. Thats all I have to say now so if you would like to know more coment on my post thanks. (also if you know people that would like help on things like picking the right farm bird or anything give them the link to my site thanks agian)
