I'm running the hydrogometor test tonight, trying desperately to tell myself not to candle when i put it in tomorrow...................
I'm on pins and needles, Aside from the one pullet and roo i got from them, these would be the only babies from my hen and roo couple that died. Aside from sentament, there was one particularly beautiful chick that didn't make it, i was gonna hatch another and see what color it was...........Yellow at the forehead dots, silver and blue on the stripes. Very thin black stripes on the side of that. Mahogony back, sandy body. ??????????????? Maybe a partridge? The other 4 chicks were pretty uniform, 2 brown chipmunks and 2 yellow chipmunks. It ended up to be an orange and black barred roo, a orange and black partridge hen, a orange and black barred hen (That turned to a very hazy barring) and blue, the throwback because he had no blue as a chick. and is actually turning out red with neon orange hackles and a blue tail?
