My broody hatched a load of chicks last week. 2 came from blue eggs, 4 from brown eggs and one from a bantam. I know which chick is the bantam, but have no idea which of the other chicks came from the blue eggs. I can't even tell the other chicks apart as they all look similar. Is there anything to look out for as they grow to indicate if any of them might have the blue gene - either cockerals or pullets. With the girls I guess I'll find out eventually but it would be nice to have some idea before.
Just talked to the farmer and he says he's got a black Minorca cock that could be the father.
