Hi everyone, I have a spare breeding pen currently, I also have various hens and cockerels running free. I was wondering what the offspring would look like if I crossed my Gold Silkie Cockerel with my 3 Salmon Faverolle hens? Any comments would be appreciated!
I have just recently brought a quartet of silkies, 2 white hens, a black hen and a ginger cockerel. My question is what colour will the offspring be from each of these hen crossed with the ginger cockerel?

Hello, I'm thinking about breeding my Chamois Appenzeller Spitzhauben with either my Gold Pencilled Hamburg Rooster or my Silver Spangled Hamburg Rooster, which breeding pair would be better and how would the chicks turn out with each pair?
Hello, I have recently hatched a few chicks some I have identified there breed and some I haven't been able to! If anyone knows could you tell me what breed and, if possible, the gender. The chicks are a breed out of the following, Lankenvelder, Vorwerk, Silver Spangled Hamburg, Buff Sussex...
Today and yesterday I expect my 60 shipped eggs to hatch, to my surprise this afternoon I'd had 42 hatch which I thought was rather a lot considering they had been posted. I was just wondering what the average hatch rate for shipped eggs is and whether my hatch rate is above average?
I have just brought into some gold pencilled hamburgs, they are always the first to come and see me! They are fairly flighty, but lay a nice sized egg. My Hamburgs only really like being with my other Hamburgs, they especially don't like being with my Vorwerks!
I have just brought 4 gold pencilled Hamberg hens from an auction to accompany my creamlegbar cockerel and my 3 other dream leg bar hens, would I be able to breed the Hamberg hens with the cream leg bar cockerel, if so how would they turn out?
Last Friday I had two chicks hatch, the white one came out of a light Sussex egg, nut I'm not sure what the black one is, it came out of a very, very dark egg. This is them:
Can anyone identify the black and can anyone also identify the gender of both chciks?
