Brakel (and related breeds) Thread

Here are some pictures when they where a day old:







29 of the 30 hatched
But we had to euthanize 1 blind and 1 weak chick.

they look really nice, exactly like i remember them from years ago
below 2 pics of my campine chick 1 day and 8 days old
as i mentioned before they differ somewhat from brakelchicks, more white in the body and less brown on the head

 

[SimonV]

Nice,how many chicks do you have at the moment?

 

[Drieslag]

2 full grown Campine chickens from 2013 and 2 chicks from last week.
One chick is however very white, even for a Campine.
I'm afraid it got some Groninger Meeuw mixed into it.
What do you think?

 

[SimonV]

Yeah,hopefully for you its just an odd one out.

I hope for you that that other chick is a male.


O and btw
I'm keep'n eggs for the next round of Brakels
