If not I know how to breed to get them now. So that is my plain for golden cuckoos or any cuckoo.


Aww that explains where the BR gene came from, the Wheaten has it.

You could skip the first step & just go Wheaten to Cuckoo & get the same result (I think)

For Crele, we use a Partridge X Barred cross.

For Golden Cuckoo you just need a BR x Barred.

You could get the same with Rocks, such as PBR X Buff = Lemon Barrs, a pretty cool coloration.

The most wonderful 3 things about these birds, well maybe 5 is:

1) they have the greastest disposition !

 

2) They are plump, a great dual purpose bird

 

3) They lay a XL-Jumbo very dark egg where as hatchery English Cuckoo Marans fail

 

4) They are extremely healthy..and we have some nasty weather here !

 

5) They are intelligent, calm, and human friendly.

 

I can reach down and pick up a hen, and the Cock at my leg watches.....they are intelligent enough to know a threat.

I have intoduced energetic young cockerels and let them all free range, and after the young guns caused a commotion, Milton (ALPHA CUCKOO) will RUN across the yard & drop kick the upstart to stop the fighting. Like a flying side kick, he does no harm but stops the fight.

The two Cocks on this flock are like Policemen...watching for preditors, commotion, and if there may be food they are right there to recieve & distribute.

I love them dearly. love.gif
