    This site compared to FB site

    This site has helpful information and great people. It was my very first web page I used back when I got my first chickens. I love the pictures, the people, the admins…but the Facebook site is horrible. People are mean, people post pictures without giving people a heads up about the horror they...

    Can anyone do the genetic math for me?

    I wanted to update my post about our little Rosecomb hen x Bantam Cochin Frizzle roo. Shadow grew up to be so very pretty . He doesn’t have a Rosecomb which I guess is supposed to be dominant ?

    Rainy area, dry idea

    Took a 2x4 ran the saw down one corner to give it a 20 degree angle. Then used some lag screws into the wall studs. Because the door was so heavy. The door and 2x4 then set flush.

    Rainy area, dry idea

    Can anyone do the genetic math for me?

    Because the chick is so tall compared to his parents I was wondering about the standard cochin gene, Vlad being a bantam . Like 2 people with dwarfism have a average size kid? But I guess that’s not a thing ?

    Can anyone do the genetic math for me?

    No, Mrs Bonaparte is the only bantam hen we have so her egg was easy to recognize 😂. And Vlad is the only roo. The comb thing is weird though from what I read . But she came from Wilco so she’s not exactly RC show quality.
