Thank you very much for your reply. You hit on exactly what I was wondering about. What kind of layers would they be, what kind of eggs would they have, and what kind of coloring would be more dominant.
Sorry! I meant to type peeping. And it is now the end of day 21 with no peeping, but candling has shown movement in the eggs, and the eggs are completely dark save for the air sack.
I've never ordered that breed before, but I have ordered Rhode Island Reds three times, Golden buffs twice, and Americaunas once and been very satisfied. Only once has there ever been a problem with chicks on delivery (postal service blunder, they delivered a small special order to my HOUSE...
Does anyone know what you get when you cross a Golden Buff (aka Red Star, Cinnimon Queen, Golden Comet, etc) hen with a Rhode Island Red rooster? Has anyone made that cross before?
