I'm looking for a breeder of TRUE lavender Marans for hatching eggs and doesn't put more than 8-10 hens to their rooster. So bummed out that I bought Bielefelders eggs, 20 eggs to be exact, and 10 were completely INFERTILE. Thanks for any references. :)

I have ONE hen who is laying a very nice DARK olive egg (egg to the far left). I'd like to possibly cross her to a white LEGHORN rooster (that I don't have yet) to increase egg production and still get a GREEN EGG. I realize the egg will be a lighter green, but the egg production should increase...

HAS ANYONE OUT THERE CROSS-BRED A *WHITE LEGHORN* rooster to a *RHODE ISLAND RED* hen? If so, can you tell me what the EGG PRODUCTION is like (color, size, frequency in laying, etc..)? I read that this particular cross outlays the org. pure breed. - - - - - - Last year, I decided I wanted...

My Cornish Cross are laying FERTILIZED eggs from my Buff Orpington rooster. Today is day 18. They go in the hatching incubator from here. Anyone out there ever crossed this meat bird w/another breed? If anyone out there has any education on crossing this bird w/another, please fill me in. Thanks.

Found this cool egg on Pinterest. A Cream Legbar rooster to a French Black Copper Marans hen. Anyone out there ever bred these two birds together? And if so, did you get the same color egg? I think this one in the picture posted is really nice...

Has anyone crossbred a *Dark Cornish* with a *Rhode Island Red?* If so, was it a DC hen w/a RIR rooster or the other way around? And if you did, was it successful? Did you raise the crossbreed chicks to harvest? How much did they weight? Do you have any pictures? We're new to the chicken world...

We live near Pontchartrain Lake and have an abundance to small fish that we can catch with a cast net. I'd like to incorporate "some" fish in their diet (great protein). I know chickens like fish, but how much can I feed them where it won't change the taste of their meat and/or eggs? One person...
