I'm afraid I have to agree with this also...most of my 2013 chicks have been cockerels as well! I have eggs ready to hatch this week, and I've been saying my prayers to have a FEW girls hatch out to finish up this year! :)
Sending Good Hatching Vibes to everyone out there with eggs in the incubator!!! It is a stressful process, isn't it...for ALL concerned, both people and chicks!
Good Luck to all!!!

Blue Pearl was bred to a black tailed white...They produced Hershey Boy, Lacey Louie, Sir Lancelot, and Cadbury...I don't know how, but they did...I was as surprised as anyone else :)

Blue Pearl (in the above picture) is a hen, not a cockeral...She has produced blues and chocolates for me, and the chocolates have been breeding true to sex-linked recessive chocolate. I am not schooled enough in the color genetics of seramas, I am only going by what has been produced...:)
I am just LOVING looking at these mauves!!! I have finally produced a smooth chocolate cockeral (he's still a baby)...ALL of mine so far have been either splits, then frizzled chocolate boys...I have made the pledge to breed only chocolate x chocolate now, and I do happen to have a smooth blue...
If anyone is looking for seramas for sale, I have some available that I just put up for sale...http://www.pixiechickens.com/seramas-for-sale/
Thanks!

I like it a lot, far less dusty than shavings, and no smell, as shavings can sometimes have...I seem to have to change it less often than shavings, as well...
