Gonna squeeze this project in somewhere this year hopefully.
Debating whether I wanna breed Bigfoot to the cracker hens first or to the Sumatra, if not both.
I'm actually going one by one. A couple I've decided not to do.
I was actually planning to get some Light Brown Leghorns, since I learned that Leghorns have Gamefowl in their ancestry.
Also, some Flarry Eyed Greys actually have walnut instead of single combs, that makes me thing silkie was...
I believe my F1 cross for my project Giant Silkies has these tiny bars too, & is also carrying Autosomal Red.
I'll have to look at his feathers tomorrow just to be sure.
Back to more details: I'll be culling bay, orange, & brown eyed birds, & any with wrong coloration, or body type.
My silvers do carry Autosomal Red which is something I seem to can't get rid of easily, so I guess salmon's are a good start.
Red, or silver shoulder patches are fine, won't cull...
