    Crossing BBR roo to Wheaten hen. What color chicks would you get? Then breed those F1’s together.

    Crossing BBR roo with Wheaten hen will give me F1s. After F1s are crossed, F2s will be pure wheaten, half wheaten and BBR.

    Quail cage size

    I’m going going to raising coturnix 900-1000 quail. Would it be better to make long running cages (like 20ft long) or stacked cages ( 6ft tall, 3-4ft wide)? What dimensions would I need for all the pens? They are for meat.

    Welsummers auto sexing applied to other breeds with the chipmunk pattern

    How were welsummers bred to be auto sexing based on 2 different looking chipmunk patterns? How could this be applied to other breeds? For example an Ameraucana color variety with chipmunk colored chicks.

    Crossing a white egg layer with any speckled egg layer

    I have some cream legbar welsummer crosses that I’ve selective breed for intense speckled eggs and auto sexing. The eggs are different shades of green with brown speckles. I was wondering if I crossed them with a white egg layer if they would keep the speckles. Are speckles part of the brown...

    Raising chicks with a mother

    Can I give a hen that I have a clutch of eggs to hatch and while she is taking care of those chicks add in more chicks that I hatched in my incubator and then slowly take out the older chicks as I add in new ones? Basically the goal is for the hen to teach them how to eat and drink and the only...
