    Crossbreeding/Backcrossing of Green Junglefowl With Domestic Chicken and Successive Offspring

    Nicalandia, any progress on this project? Any luck sourcing greens or Besikers in the US? I actually am in the infant stages of trying to do a Grey and Ceylon Jungle Faux, i have some hybrid stock from Will Lawrence, and i have a young Grey male over Red hens now as well. I'd like to try with...

    CCL x Isabelle Leghorn?

    They're going to basically look like legbars, maybe a bit more comb. Males will be single barred.

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    Well, if there's anyone still following this thread, here is an update on my cuckoo Bluebars. The two hens were hatched on Valentine's day and the roo was hatched 3 weeks later. These three are all siblings. I have 3 more unrelated breeding coming behind them to give me 4 unrelated pens for...

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    So, I haven't updated my Bluebars in a few weeks. They've changed quite a bit! My eldest are 13 weeks now. Here is my eldest male. He had been crowing for about a month and is finally starting to get the hang of it! He picked up the "black" coloration from the cross so he appears barred. He...

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    This batch I hatched 3 and got 2:1. The batch behind them looks about 50-50. We shall see how the next couple batch go. I started with two nice Cream Legbars males, one Crele one Cream, and two Andalusians hens. They're not the best Andalusians out there but, they were all I could get my hands...

    Yes, definitely one boy and two girls. Those 3 are direct siblings. I ran two breeding pens.my first two hatches were all from one pen and the last hatch and the upcoming are from the other. I'm hoping I can pull out 2 males and hopefully 4-6 females from each pen to build my strain with!

    Here are my 3 oldest, they are 9 weeks old ( I have a batch at 5.5 weeks, 3.5 weeks and 2 weeks and some under a broody which should hatch next week and more in the incubator which were set Wednesday right behind them). We took these last night.

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    Very nice, I love that he has a touch of gold in him. Quite striking! Mine are still tiny, between 2 days and 6 weeks old. I can't wait to see how they grow out!

    Blue Leghorns are quite rare but, theyre out there. Andalusians and Leghorns are pretty similar birds, similar builds, size and type both lay white egge. Andalusians are only blue though (black and splash as well from the blue breedings) whereas Leghorns come in many many color patterns. The...

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    That's understandable, there's a breed and color for everyone! I discovered the Bluebar from Brinkhaven Acres and fell in love with the appearance. I'm a sucker for blue birds and blue eggs. I thought about the appearance and genetics a bit and figured I could DIY rather than buy lol. Once upon...

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    Very cool! I opted to go my own route crossing the Cream Legbars males over Blue Andalusian hens. This is my F1 generation. Do you (or anyone else who has the Bluebars) plan on breeding them for future generations?

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    Very nice! Is she laying blue? Pale or strong blue? Or,is she laying a greenish or white egg? I'd love to see pix of her!

    Cuckoo Bluebar...

    I'm not so sure that anyone is following this thread anymore? Is anyone? I'd love to talk Bluebars with folks! My first hatch of Cuckoo Bluebars (Valentine's Day hatch) are 6 weeks old today! It looks like I have two pullets and one cockerel fr the first hatch. They are hatching true to the...
