    Houdans

    I hatched my eggs from someone I bought eggs from last spring/summer on BYC. She had an auction but I can remember her name. But they hatched out looking exactly like the ones in her photos! Mine are pretty wild birds, they mostly free range all day and are afraid of people but they are not mean...

    What color is this silkie chick?

    All right now I'm swooning! My hens came from camelot farms, eggs I hatched out last year! The rooster came from another girl Tina, in Delray, WV. This was my first batch of eggs from the young group and all 9 hatched! Boy was I surprised!!!

    white from blue...what???

    Quote: white+black= blue splash+slash= splash black+splash= blue Blue+blue= 25% black 25% slash, 50% blue does this mean you can breed white roo or hen to a black and get blue? Genetics confuse me!!! Or only if they are carrying a certain gene?

    Do you know anyone in eastern panhandle of WV that wants some Houdan Roo's. They are under a year and breeding. This is the offspring of a Mottled houdan and an easter egger! Only a few hours old and asleep! This is one of the roo's Bad photo taken about 1 month ago.

    What color is this silkie chick?

    hello, It looks like a gray color, I have black chicks and it is much lighter than the blacks. Would you call this blue? I know its still to young to know what color it will turn out to be when its an adult. But I love this color! I have black, white, and splash hens. thank you! janie

    IncuCube Bator

    Good luck Dan! I was able to get a hold of randy at In. Warehouse, I'm going to order extra parts in case mine would break down in the middle of a hatch. Like I said, this was my best hatch rate ever and I am so pleased. I had 100% hatch rate, the 3 eggs left over were not fertile, from another...

    I know this is an older topic, but I fired up my incucube 3 weeks ago and I have had the best hatch ever! Temp hardly ever moved, very easy to keep humidity in check, the new turner they sent me worked great! I think last summer was just too hot, and i was using shipped eggs. The eggs I used...
