Thanks elizmartin! I just put a batch of Salmon and F1 Blue Salmon in the incubator.

We are in SC.

I have the same thing for sale! We hatched way too many this year. I would rather have them all go to someone who loves the breed and wants to continue improving it rather than someone who just wants a pretty chicken.

Guess it woukd have been easier to have an opinion on whether he was the best choice or not if I'd attached the picture of the other cockkerels. LOL

This is the cockerel I used this time. Any opinions are more than welcome.

Thanks so much. This was a test hatch for fertility and to see if I had chosen the best cockerel to give me the improvements I'm looking for. I figured that the 4 toe was something that would pop up on occasion, but didn't know if it was more of a fluke that happens from the unknown genetics...

Breeding question for you more experienced in Faverolles than me :) I have four LF pullets and a cockerel that I hatched from SQ eggs from a breeder in NV. All are of great type and structure, but a couple of the pullets have a smudgy beard and the cockerel's tail set isn't what I really want...

I ordered eggs from a breeder in NM and hatched out seven gorgeous chicks in January. The three cockerels are growing up nicely and I have selected the best one to go in the breeding pen based on how well he meets SOP. The pullets I am having a more difficult time determining which traits are...

12 shipped eggs, 5 no starts, 7 hatched :) Super happy!! :D

I ordered a dozen eggs, seven made it through candling day and today is hatch day!! So far we have three out and 4 pips :D I'm as excited as I was the first time I hatched my first chicks!!

We usually have 95% or better hatch rates on our own eggs but any help with shipped ones is always appreciated :)

So you adjust the humidity based on air cell development? How do you gauge whether to increase or decrease humidity? I have to watch air cell development closely with the Seramas but have never tried adjusting humidity based on air cells. Sounds like a great idea!

I just had my first Faverolles eggs shipped in and am going to put them in the incubator. We have a broody Silkie as well, so I may give her a few. I usually run the humidity at 42% for LF eggs and 48% for the Seramas. What is the ideal humidity for the Favs? I have it set at 45% now.

I'm in SC and am very interested in hatching eggs if you have or will have some available.

That's terrible :(

You lost 300?? Oh my! Did they die from MG or did you cull to get clear of it?

Thanks! I will check today :)

Well, I find myself ready to add another breed to our flock. We have our layer flock of buffs, barred rocks, EEs, and Brahmas as well as our birds we show. Showing Seramas is great, but we want to add another breed to show also. Since Faverolles are heritage, dual purpose birds with adorable...
