The Wyandotte Thread

Pics
Date sort Score sort
So I know this may be unnecessary but here are two pics. One of a pure comb for rose and the other a heterozygous comb rose/single. Can you guess which is which? The 2 birds are the same in both pics, just switched positions.

I will take single comb carrier for $200 Alex.

I will say the smaller, flatter combed bird. Also note that it gives her somewhat of a crow head appearance as well. I have never really thought about how it diminishes the rose combs "fullness". A great visual Rudy.
 
I have an old bird pic too, but only if you want to see it. Maybe tomorrow

The comb gets way nastier with age

Hollower, flatter and pointier. And I think it's worse with the males, but I don't have a pic. I ate that one three weeks ago

When did you make a website? Amber is looking into it for me. We should know more at our age about doing that sort of stuff but I'm terrible with computers.

I just threw one up. I made one through Purdue back in the day

, but what I really need now is a good editor. Google sites editor is not too easy to use and I don't know any HTML, and that's all I have now. My site is barely passable, but I did put a couple new pics up...

I just made mine on Webs.com. It is the easiest site builder ever.

I've been considering BLRW's for a bit.
 
I had to take Mrs. Turbo to the surgical center this morning so that she could have a small hernia surgically repaired, she is home and doing well...but I am having a tough time taking care of the kids and cooking supper (frozen pizza is not that bad....) When we got home I checked the hatcher and she had 18 large fowl Partridge hatch out....I had to throw them in box and bring them up for her to see, I wish she would get that excited when I get home from work everyday. Anyway its our first Partridge hatch....

We got our first wyandottes, they are sooo pretty. I am still a little confused though on the breeding mentality's on here. Pro hybrid vs non hybrid.

There definetely seems to be pro's and con's to both, but basically from breeding other animals, when we mix it is no longer a purebred, then you get into the F1's, F2's and so on. I don't see breeders differenting when they sell. If it looks purebred, they list is as such even if it still can throw some of the hybrid traits.

Being new to a breed, this is very confusing. Why don't the breeder designate the mixes as such?
