Glad to find this thread! Here are some of my young mutts! All are fathered by a production RIR. Possible mama hens are Black-sex links, Golden Comet, an EE, and a suspected Hampbar.

I'm trying to figure out what type of hen this is (the one up front in the picture) that I was given by my Grandpa. He has so many chickens come and go, plus he's older, so he doesn't remember what breed or mix she is. Looking at pictures online, Hampbars seem to bear the closest resemblance...

Thanks for the info! I'm eager to learn!

So I have accidentally created a Rhodebar. I incubated and hatched out 30 chicks from my mixed flock in January. I noticed one was super cool looking and I was like "WHAT IS THAT?! So upon my research, I figured out that I had myself a Rhodebar rooster or something similar. The rooster of the...

She's not, she's a gold color. I'll have to take pictures of them and post it!

Just found this thread! I'm in the second week of my first incubation attempt! I have 40 eggs, 3 Swedish Isbars and 5 Cream Legbars, 2 RIR/EE eggs, a few RIR/Golden Comet eggs and the rest are RIR/Black Sex Links. The pure breed eggs are ones I ordered from a breeder off of Ebay. They claimed an...

I have a RIR rooster and EE hen eggs in my incubator right now and they are set to hatch in 11 days. I'm hoping to end up with some hens that lay olive hued eggs! I know they won't be as dark as a Maran EE cross but I'm hopeful for a few shades lighter. If anyone else has any more information on...

Thank you for telling me! And her and the others have just started laying about a week or so ago, and we already have more eggs than we know what to do with! @UberchicRanch

Thanks so much! I love her coloring too, and she's so friendly! That makes total sense about the mixes and something different just coming out in her, that had crossed my mind. She just looks so much different than all my others that it had me wondering!

This hen came with a run of black sex linked hens from a hatchery. She has always looked slightly different; built different as a pullet, more gold in her coloring, etc. Now that she is full grown, I am still having trouble figuring out what breed she is or if she is a mix. Any help would be...

My grandpa had raised chickens for many, many years and this past summer he helped me start my own little flock! I have six silly hens: 5 black sex linked and 1 red sex linked. They are Honey Bun, Blanche Devereaux, Lucille, Naomi, Esmerelda, and Miss Selena. Last but not least, I have a...
