Congratulations Lynne! You have been the start for many of us and am glad you found success!

Napping UNDER the hammock....

Spring youngsters a growin'--

Thank you Nancy! I notice my males tend to lose white as they age. I really look forward to seeing chicks from your birds! 2 hatched that are from the mille pullet and i'm marking them as keepers. They may grow breast chevrons!

These little cockerels are only about 4-6 weeks old. They are available if anyone needs males. They have proper feet. PM me if interested, asking $10 ea but you can have all 3 for $20.

Milles out in the sunshine

We'd love to see pics!

A spring pullet who is shaping well but already has too much white & has some black in her breast

I think you are onto something. Its definitely shown in mine as males have poorer type than females. I've heard that generally, males pass on the color and female the body type

Yes shafting is definitely occuring!

Reyvaughn--i'd think half siblings would be fine. Do they have different faults so that both birds dont carry the same unwanted characteristic?

These are 3 of my Spring 2013 hatch. I'll keep both males to grow more, the one with more white is shaped better. Though feel I my MFCs are getting too much mottling and looking like calico (not what I want to breed) So the one with less white would be valuable in breeding, he's just not the...

Chooketychook--you can go a couple directions. Find the best mille fleur roo and breed them or if not to be found try a buff columbian male or a mottled male. To keep the mille pattern in the first generation of chicks, use a mille roo. I'm not familiar with the quality of body type in the...

My opinion..... it may depend upon the background breeding in your milles. those with partridge in the background may have black in the breast. I'm curious of any that have tried gold laced in the breeding of milles. Gold laced may help spread black throughout the bird (I don't know the...

a couple of the chicks from this spring. The males look promising and of good color. Really trying to get some black into the breast. I heard from another breeder that maybe using a gold laced can help get black into the breast. I've not tried it but who knows

I think you are right MsBear, that picture is definitely familiar.

Do u have other views of him? He looks nice

The breeding flock this early spring. The blue & mottled r included to help on type

Tylan 50 has done well for me too when it comes to the winter sneezes. I use the powder form in their water. Cleared them up very well

Amy, he still has great type even if a bit odd comb (little devils horns?). Frankly, I'd like to produce a roo of his shape! you've made such strides, it really is a pleasure to see how you've advanced the color variety
