First, the progeny of Rufus with my lav Cochin-only two of nine were black, so the rest were sired by the porcelain males. One black is quite small, the other very round like the other Coch'Anvers:

haha yep, I'm 15 or so years into the bantam thing, It dont happen over night that's for sure.  Honestly, with this many It about makes you go mad trying to keep up with everything.  I do label each on as I pick it up too, or I'd have a mess.

 

Playing switch the pens this weekend too, time to rotate out some of the breeders for more color projects

Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty, well-preserved body. but rather, to skid in sideways, totally worn out and exhausted while shouting loudly "WOW! What a ride!"

Here is what our little eyeliner kid is turning out to be at 4 weeks old, methinks the only D'Anver pullet from the first hatch. I'm betting the tiniest one is a late blooming cockerel and will post a picture of it in a minute. The BR and the BR x EE, plus one of the Coch'Anvers are pullets, thank goodness! First, eyeliner kid:

The others:

This one is the tiny one we were not sure of, could have gone either way. I think it went to the Dark Side, LOL. What say you?

They already messed up the roost I scrubbed before I put them in here, pooped all over it already!

Cynthia- that the way I hatch them. Last fall I hatched 8 quail and 7 were roosters. And the book says 50/50. If I could just get it to work with lottery numbers.
