12+ Possible Project Bantam Chocolate Ameraucana Eggs - ENDS TOMORROW

Thread Starter 

These eggs are from my pen which consists of a split 1/2 ameraucana 1/2 orpington cockerel which carries the chocolate gene over my black ameraucana hens.  The genetic offspring of this cross will result in 25% of the chicks will be chocolate pullets.

I am NPIP certified and AI clean.  I cannot ship to Virginia.



Here is a picture of some of the recent chicks I have hatched and egg color on the actual eggs with some choc orp eggs next to them:

Hi Jean.  So the cockerel you used was 1/2 bantam and the hens were LF?  Do you think these chicks will be sized somewhere in between or just bantam?  I am so excited about the idea of beautiful chocolate girls!  Also, if the chocolate gene is sex-linked  to males, is it possible to ever achieve chocolate LF from this combination?  Thanks!
