Okay just want to make sure. I asked in speraduc questions in other post put want to put in all here and see if I can tell others.
So I know if I put a barred rock over any the hens that they will all take on his coloring so will not be able to tell based on color.
But if I do BR over Wyandotte then the chicks will have a noticible Wyandottes comb, for sure
And BR over Maran then they will have feathered legs as chicks for sure?
And that way the one that hatch that don't have feathered legs or Wyandotte comb will be my purebred barred rocks, correct.
This it them being all in one pen!
Now if I add Bielefeder hens in there I won't be able to tell the chicks from pure barred rock chicks.
And if I add my Grazer(or what most you call ranger hens). In there I won't be able to tell them from pure barred rock chicks when hatched?
Thanks!
