    What color chicks will I get with a black rooster over splash hens?

    Do you know how blue mottled works? If I have a blue mottled large fowl over a blue hen? Would it have the same outcome as the chart? Blue to blue is 25, 50, 25

    What color chicks will I get with a black rooster over splash hens?

    What about my leakage problem? Is that possible to breed out?

    What color chicks will I get with a black rooster over splash hens?

    I’m debating between a black cochin rooster and a blue cochin rooster (blue has leakage)… to breed over my blue, black, buff, white, partridge hens. What are your thoughts? Is it possible to breed out the leakage problem?

    Hen drinking lots of water and vomiting

    Mine do it when they run out of water for more than a few hours (usually when we leave and someone is supposed to water and forgets). They will be okay, they are just over drinking and don’t have the space for all the water they are taking in.

    4 week old Welsummer male or female?

    Were these all female? If so, do you have a photo of males at this age?

    We are too (: they go out into the second field while the first one attached to the barn dries up, Then we bring them back over. For being two old retired Amish guys, they are doing very well. Besides their teeth from being power floated and damaged at another facility. But slow and steady wins...

    Animals like this green water

    I have two big draft horses, one Percheron and one Belgian. With all the rain, snow, and whatnot, one small step is a gaping mud hole 🤣 I don’t allow them to stand in mud long as they have feathering and are prone to scratches and irritation. I usually have to trim my Belgian in the spring and...

    Spring Hatching - Breed Together

    I wanted to sell some chicks. I did a hatch last year with my BCM to BCM and sold those - 100% hatch rate, came out great. Then I did olive eggers which was another great hatch with 8 out of 9 hatching, which also all sold. Someone said that BCM with Barred hens create a sexlink? But haven’t...

    Spring Hatching - Breed Together

    Hi There! If you had this list of chickens, with two roosters (a bantam calico cochin and a black copper marans) what breeds would you cross and/or hatch from? Who would you cross? I know the BCM with any blue egg layer will be an olive Egger - we have done that one last year and it was GREAT...

    I really thought I was going to have orange headed chickens, but they all went black/blue and now the rest are buff at the chest and wings! Just amazing! I wish others were closer, I would offer Fertilized eggs, just so I could see all the colors! Pudge is my favorite.. she is a survivor! The...
