It is my opinion that frizzled chicks are the CUTEST chicks in the coop! Sure, all chicks are cute, but frizzles just have a little something EXTRA to their level of cuteness. A frizzled chicken's feathers curl forward instead of laying flat against the chicken's body. I snapped these photos this afternoon, and am so glad I did!
This guy has great coloring! His father is Uncle Sam (this chick got
his red, white, and blue coloring), and his mother is Curly Que (she's a
frizzled polish).
This little guy (guessing it's a roo, but maybe not!) has more muted colors, but still the blue and gold show
through. I think he'll be very pretty as an adult with slightly darker
neck coloring, and more penciling pattern on his feathers.
Both of these boys are from the 13 chicks that Edwina hatched out in May. There's a third frizzle chick too, but he wasn't too hip on having a photo session today. Maybe he'll cooperate next time. He's very similar in appearance to the first chick, above.
By the way, I'm interested in selling these little fellas, so if you're in the area and want to add some ultra cuteness to your coop, drop me a note and I can let you know the prices. I'd wager that we will always have frizzles on the farm. I just think they are the CUTEST things!

How adorable! I love the red of the first one's comb, combined with his dark eyes and yellow beak. And those "shingled," multi-colored feathers are the best! What 'do's they both have!

Thanks for sharing these photos. I got a White Terrier Webkinz for Christmas and her fur is like a frizzle chicken, so I named her Frizzel. this will be good to show the kids why I named her that! :)))

WOW, those chickies are the cutest! Wish I had a farm just to look at those little babies.

I think God created you as a 'girl' Dr Doolittle just to make us happy...Your curly chooks are just so cute and I can imagine they have a personality all of there own. I can tell you adore each and every one of your animal friends, we are so lucky that they allow us up-close and personal and trust us not to hurt them. I feel sorry for people who don't know the what it feels like to love a pet or appreciate an animal like we do.

Yes, they ARE adorable! So different looking than what I always thought of as a "chicken"...unique, to say the least!!!
And you are a wonderful frizzle Momma, I'm sure they wouldn't be nearly as cute if someone else was their Mom! :D

OMG! They are darling! How cool that their feathers frizzle outward! I had no idea!! If I lived closer I'd be on your doorstep in a heartbeat.
Just curious...is that the name of them? Frizzle chicks? Or do they come by a more scientific unpronounceable and unspellable name? This was the first I'd heard of them. CUTE! CUTE! CUTE!

OH aren't they so cute!!! I so wish I was a bit closer, not to far from you.. but far enough. I still haven't talked Hubby into Chickens.. he worries about the coyotes -
BTW... we had another baby donkey today :0) stop by and see how cute she is!!
