Russian Orloff (large fowl, spangled) Male 1 year old Name: CCL farms Freddie Junior

I'm a new, small poultry farm and have been hatching chicks for not too long. Every once in a while I have someone asking me if I vaccinate my chicks. A while ago I did some research and found out that you can only buy vaccines in 1,000 doses and once you open the bottle, you have to use it...

No one??? Yesterday the guy at the feed store said that Home Grown is way better (more quality) than Xcel feed...

I use Home Grown No-Soy No-Corn feed for my chickens. I decided to check other brands but need the "chicken experts' opinion" on this one... Can you please tell me which one is the best one (and why, so I can learn too ) when comparing the labels? Thank you!

WOW! I'm speechless!! That's such a great explanation!! I was about to say that all I was trying to do with my chart was to combine all different charts in one, and add the f1 over f1 and f2 and all their possibilitie s. And for that I asked the input of the big brains here at BYC. But I had...

Thanks for the explanation and correction. I had the redish egg on the bottom based on the explanation given on the first post I quoted: "...you're going to get anything and everything from normal olive green to normal dark reddish brown to anything else, including blue, mint green, green/brown...

Better now?? :)

Got it! Ok, so I'll remove the speckled eggs... You're right, people might get confused and the idea is to show the possible colors themselves, and not if they are speckled or not. Stay tuned, final chart coming very soon! Once again, thanks for your help...

THANKS!!! So all I need to do is to include a white egg? How about white "speckled" (if there is such a thing like that...)?

~~~~ Anyone?? ~~~~

I know this was posted a looooong time ago and many many posts ago. But I worked on a new "cheat sheet" and would like to see if someone could verify it for me... Thanks in advance!

Wanted 2 Blue Wheaten Ameraucana Roosters. They must be the REAL deal, and hatched from a robin blue egg. They can be between 4 and 18 months (it actually could be older, but young ones are preferable). Will pay for them. Thank you!

Would you still happen to have the roos? If yes, what egg color did they come from, and do you have their pictures? Thanks!

Let's see if someone can help me. I've had Blue Wheaten, Wheaten and Blue Splash Wheaten Ameraucanas for 1 year. I hatched many chicks and they were always all yellow. I recently acquired 2 new blue Wheaten roosters and for the first time I'm getting chipmunk marks on my baby chicks. I'm...

They started laying one day after your reply. It has been a slow start but I know it's normal. The Flock Block worked like a charm... ;) Thanks anyway!
