What I would do is leg band the white chicks with one color band and then the yellow chicks with another color band. As they grow you will be able to identify who hatched white or yellow. As adults you will then be able to tell if the chick down is an indicator of adult plumage and to what...

I feel this falls into the category of " The one that got away". It seems every time I start thinking a bird is promising looking and may be my best yet, it will get eaten. I have waited a while to hatch a really nice BBR. Several hatched this spring and each month I would look them over and...
