20 weeks is just a generalized guess-timation, it really comes down to the bird, and your judgment... I am still waiting for my buff brahma x buff orp pullet to grow up enough... she is right around 20 weeks, but still doesn't look anywhere near mature yet... sort of stuck in that gangly teenage stage

That this universe, in all it's infinite wonder, simply is, that it exists at all, is good enough for me. In my eyes, to say that something had to "create" it, to make it what it is, only succeeds to cheapen the experience, to make it less special.

I am really sad to see this thread fizzling out....and I nearly have pictures to share. I think its really interesting to see the mixes. I also think documenting their progression from chick to adult is of value. Perhaps you could reconsider the age restriction?

There's an age restriction?  tongue.gif  I'd post anyway.  Oh yah, I did already post a chick pix!

post #245 of 359

there really shouldn't be an age restriction on this as it would be nice to see what they looked like as chicks best thing for this would be a progression series from chick to adult as no 2 mixes look alike as chicks nor adults. i have 6 silkie/d'uccle mixes 2 adults looks like buff Columbine, 2 chicks with different colored feathers coming in and 2 solid black chicks and each one looks different hmm.png although i looking through the pics i also would love to see what they looked like as chicks

I believe that the OP said that you could post chick pics but you had to have an adult pic of the same bird to show as well. I am doing some crosses, and I will have pics to show. I am trying to do a progression thing, but it is hard to remember to take the camera to the coop with me at night when they are sitting still! LOL

From someone who lurks, the progression thing works best if all in one post, rather than having to move back and forth in the thread trying to find the associated pics.

 

And of course, those of you who are only interested in posting pics of your birds/chicks will post regardless of the intent of the originator and those of us who are really interested in what the actual crosses are.

 

Sorry OP, I just had to say it.
