Hi! It has been a long time. I'm currently doing Ayam Katawa, and LF Cochin. I was doing sexlink chocolate Silkies but life happened and I had to downsize. These are some of my babies!
I have done a lot of research on this since I started this thread, thank you so much for the link!
I have two chocolate pens now. Sexlink and a "fun pen". Sex link is the chocolate boy with a bunch of black hens and the fun pen is a blue boy I hatched from sexlink eggs(so he should be split if...
Mine shipped from Tennessee to California. I'm not crazy about his packing method. Shredded paper, smaller box inside with eggs wrapped once(some of them twice) in bubble wrap and more shredded paper. The second box had shredded paper in the outer box but no filler paper around the eggs in the...
We aren't sure what went wrong with my friends trio but nothing hatched chocolate from them. He scrapped that project. I ended up with blue and black. But it works out great for me because I have a chocolate rooster that I needed more black hens for. I posted a grown up pic of some of the girls...
How far away did they ship them from? This specific batch took a beating while in transit and were in the transit for a week, and the "replacement" eggs weren't packaged as well and took a worse beating than the first(4 broken on arrival, holes busted in the box, no filler in the small box with...
Hello! I forgot all about this, sorry for the late reply. Ended up not being chocolate but they are still beautiful! I paired them with my chocolate rooster so I will definitely be getting chocolate babies in the future
Yeah its definitely the risk. I was just hopeful when half of them made it to lockdown 😕. I'm apprehensive about having the humidity that high, every single time I've done that in the past it's drowned every chick and I get none! But this obviously didn't work so I'm willing to try something...
I need some input. I'm not new to hatching, shipped and my own. I did take a break though and it has been making me feel like I'm learning all over again.
I ordered ayam ketawa eggs across the states from me, they were in transit for a week so I didn't have high hopes but I gave it my best...

Took this picture yesterday when I took them out, in the sun I think I see chocolate but I'm still not confident, this isnt my first batch of chocolates but my first from my friend and usually the chocolates are obviously chocolate idk.. my friend said he thinks they might just be super dark...
Thank you! Observation was going to happen either way lol but my friend who gave me the eggs is feeling uneasy about them not looking chocolate right away so I told him I would post and see what other people say since genetics give me a headache and neither of us are super knowledgeable about...
