I had a wierd thing happen, of th 5 chicks that my blue old english bantam hatched a month ago 3 are blue 1 is black and one is black with gold coming in on his hackle. I know blues will hatch blue,black and splash, but never heard one of hatching a brown red (witch is what it looks like it is...
I am having good luck with OEGB hens so far this year, my blue hatched 6 out of 7 and my silver duckwing has 5 now and 3 more piping. Have not had good luck with my millie fluer and porclian D'uccle's only hatched only one chick each. The millie is sitting agin now,hope she does better this time.
just put 2 eggs in incubator last night in a liitle giant still air, this is the first time i have tried to hatch any eggs. if anyone has any good tips let me know, I was told not to put ant water in till after the first week. I was wondering if this was right?
