    Ended Contest #3 Cutest Baby Fowl - 8th Annual BYC Easter Hatchalong

    This is a cute chick! We actually have one that looks like her, a bantam one. We wonder how that happened since we figured we'd only get black or partridge colors.

    Silver Laced polish + Rhode Island Red mix?

    When you mentioned the gold laced polish cross chick I was interested in what it would look like. He looks very pretty. I like the dusky brown with the black on his wings. The head crest might still develop, but it will take a week or two as it did with mine and my sister's chicks. (But if the...

    Silver Laced polish + Rhode Island Red mix?

    If you were asking me for the update there isn't much to write. They haven't changed much since the last pictures. As for egg productivity, we seem to be getting one every day from them, so they are very productive. I would like an update from Gracehomestead too if that was who you were asking...

    Silver Laced polish + Rhode Island Red mix?

    Okay, so here is an update. The pullets have grown and started laying eggs. Here is how they look now at 26 weeks. Their eggs are a light brown/tan. Not light enough to be a creamy brown, but lighter than a Rhode Island egg. Here is a picture for comparison. The brown egg on the...

    Hello from southern Utah!

    For Southern Utahns who do the Facebook thing, there is a Facebook page for chicken enthusiasts in your area. Might want to check that out too. They periodically sell chicks, chickens, & equipment. Also it's a great social place for any questions. https://www.facebook.com/groups/453368351463428/

    Silver Laced polish + Rhode Island Red mix?

    So I realize this is an older thread, but other people probably have the same question. My sister and I bred our silver laced Polish rooster with some Rhode Island Red hens (and others). I have some photos of the cross if anyone is still interested. As chicks they were all black with little...

    The "What Color Is My Chicken?" thread! Calling all color experts!

    Well I contacted the lady we got him from and she said the Cochin was the father. She's bred the Cochin before and apparently he's only produced one chick with feathered legs. I'm guessing she made more hybrids and wasn't breeding him with another Cochin. Feathering must not be dominant with him...

    The "What Color Is My Chicken?" thread! Calling all color experts!

    Anyone know what color this might be? The father was a splash Cochin, the mother a Black Jersey Giant. The siblings were all the typical dark blue with lacing, but this rooster is paler and has no lacing. So I'm trying to figure out what it could be. It can't be lavender or self blue because I...

    Black Australorp hybrid project

    Okay, so my sister and I didn't breed these two, we bought them from someone local, but she told us they were Australrop and Amerucana crosses. So they look like black Australorps but with peacombs and muffs. They lay large green eggs. We are very happy with them. Right now they are almost a...
