Family member still semi bed bound so am spending my days with them and sleeping in sleepout at night. Feel sorry for other family members who were meant to be having a proper break but we're all doing what we can.

There's this chicken here that looks like a giant duckling crossed with a quail.

Beautiful weather!

Does this chicken have an accompanying photo? Or do you know the breed so we can look up pictures?

That could be fun! I will try and take a photo. It's weird because I know both its parents and its sibling and none of them look like it.

Interesting, so it's not a specific breed, just a quirky one?

[–] liv 2 points 1 year ago

Yep, a one of a kind chicken!

Ok internet is dicey here but I managed to upload this shot of it with its sibling from the same batch.

Edit: and this one of the whole family!

Thanks! After seeing them, I think I've forgotten what chickens look like haha. I look at those and think they don't really look like chickens, but can't explain why because they have the parts of chickens.
