Lewis Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Need a bit of help identifying this new breed of chicken please! Never seen anything like it before but wondering if any of you have Yellow, very little feathering, large yellow single comb and a lack of feathers. Clean legged. By the looks of it I'd guess a hybrid but hoping you guys will be able to help me out.... Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Oh dear it looks quite sorry for itself doesn't it? Is it often found hunched up and sitting on it's own in the corner of the pub? Nice one Lewis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I would say it was a lesser spotted ale fowl,myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 It looks like its about to rob a bank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillM Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 With the shortage of feathers I would guess it's going through a moult and is in need of some poultry spice to pick it up a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 it's lovely, I wonder if there's a bantam version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach chick Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 unlikely to lay, I'd say..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Spotted in and around Aber with many a friend but no other chickens! ... indeed in few pubs and on the Pier too Wonder if theres an eglu big enough for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I doubt there is a fox big enough to take that one on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I agree it could be moulting, I think a trip to Aber with mealworms may be in order I'd find space in my Walk in Run for it, I've heard this breed of chicken doesn't crow early in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Could it be related to that penguin in Wallace and Gromits The wrong Trousers. The headgear is similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
