    Sebright/Dark Brahma cross

    I bought an incubator a few weeks ago and was able to hatch out a chick that is crossed between my little Sebright roo and a Dark Brahma hen! Coolest little chick! Bigger than the batam chicks and already has feathers on its feet. Looks like it's gonna be marked like a Golden Laced Sebright...

    ? on a Brahma and Bantam cross

    Just a quick update. I bought an incubator a few weeks ago and successfully hatched out a Sebright/dark brahma cross chick! I'm pretty stoked about it! The chick appears like its gonna take the Sebright colors with feathers on its feet. I hatched out several sebright batams and this cross is...

    Sebrights

    My little Sebrights have been awesome so far. 3 hens and each has been laying 4 to 5 eggs a week. I know they aren't great layers but 12-15 little white eggs a week from my 3 little hens works out perfect!

    Chicken Breed Focus - Sebright

    My other 2 Sebrights both layed today! All 3 hens I have had layed by 5.5 months old. The first to lay is giving us a perfect little white egg everyday. Hopefully the others will do the same! A lot of people told me don't expect eggs from them till next spring and very few at that.....so far...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Sebright

    I have 4 that are 5 months. None of their wings are clipped and I free range mine everyday with my Brahmas. While they can fly if excited or spooked I've never had it bean issue. They are back in bed with the others before dark. Probably ain't gonna catch em but they are so quick I don't know...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Sebright

    That's what I'm experiencing. My Sebright started laying about 10 days ago and has layed an egg everyday.

    Sebrights

    What's your experience with Sebrights and egglaying? I've read read where they lay really small eggs and not many at that. I have one hen that started laying early last week. While the eggs are small, they are almost the same size as the eggs my young dark Brahma is laying. She is also...

    Who else is waiting for that first egg?

    My sebright layed her second egg today. 2 eggs in 3 days.....I'll take it. This one was a little bigger. Surprisingly it's not much smaller than the brown eggs my dark brahma has been laying.

    Weasel?

    Mink are the worst to deal with imho. It's fairly simple to keep coons and such out but mink are determined once they find food and if they can get their nose started in an opening they will get in. I've trapped what seems to be hundreds during trapping season here in Indiana. A really dumb...
