2 year breeding project

[chikoo12007]

So i decided one day to breed my paps chickens. Which he had a australorp rooster with 2 australorp hens and 3 buff orpington hens. I hatched 15 out of 22 eggs. Out if those 15 i got 11 australorp chicks and 3 mixed.

So the following chicks grew up

I continued the next year with a buff orpington rooster. With the australorp hens and hatched several of the above hens color. Not all had the same exact color. But one chick stood out. I even googled the breed i mixed but cant find anyone likd it.

Who turned out to be a young rooster. Im unfamiliar with chicken genetics. Which is why im excited to continue this project.

Reminds me of my old discontinued project, involving Buff Orpingtons, Australorps, & Barred rocks.

It's a simple Sex Linked Cross... The chicks with gold on breasts are Females, The chicks with Silver on breast are Males.

True as the females inherit gold s+ from father and males inherit Silver from dame.
