    I know, my friend, and imagine that hy-line white leghorns overlay the browns and eat less than them. The mediterranean climate we have in Greece makes the whites the best choice by far.

    I am not sure, but black tips if males, no tips if females.

    marans X hy-line

    https://www.backyardchickens.com/reviews/easter-egger-x.12146/ I am going to do the test and then cross the f1 females to araucanas, ameraucanas and legbars to create an f2 easter egger.

    marans X hy-line

    Yes, white rocks are the mothers of the industrial red sex links. But, hy-line selects stock since 1936 to achieve the optimum results.

    Easter Egger

    Easter Eggers are not a standardised and recognised chicken breed, but they are mixed crossbred X chickens created in barnyards by hobby farmers all around the world. They carry the gene of the blue and green egg shell. This means that breed like rumpless araucanas, crested british araucanas...

    marans X hy-line

    Understood. Thank you so much for all this information.

    marans X hy-line

    But their mothers (carefully selected white rocks since 1936) do have the silver gene.

    marans X hy-line

    White why? Because of the dominant white genes and the silver genes contained in the maternal white rocks that are used to create the hy-line browns?

    marans X hy-line

    Hello. What shall I expect from a cross between black copper marans roosters and hy-line brown hens? I need darker and harder eggs than hy-line browns and more eggs than marans hens.

    They will lay wherever they want, they just walk and drop their eggs in the middle of nowhere. They need a plastic tub with water if they are going to mate, because otherwhise the male may break the back of the females. Heat lamps only the ducklings and only if they do not get out.
