Sorry to jump on this thread but it confuses me too. These lighter ones are from Whiting True Green hen X Lavender Orpington roo. In the past I’ve only hatched out darker chicks with red heads, so these took me off guard. Could they be sexed by these markings too. Thank you for any responses.
Hi everyone! I wanted to post some photos of the crosses I have and get your thoughts. All only have Lavender Roo x with different hens. Whiting True Green Hen x Lavender Roo. Wondering if these 4 will be EE. Very interesting.
Thank you. The BCM Cross Roos father is definitely a Lavender. I was figuring he was still too young. I wonder what they will look like? Lavender Roo x Whiting hen has thrown darker chicks in the past so these littles really threw me off.
Greetings Everyone!
Just wanted to share. My girls are the ones in question for a long time but now I believe they are some type of hybrid Orpington cross thanks to help on this forum. Anyways, these are the first chicks and wanted to share. Pretty interesting 🧐
Hybrid Orpington x Lavender...
I’m always so excited for the first hatches of the year. My beautiful drake and his 3 gorgeous ladies. I am overwhelmed to see all the beautiful color variations and wanted to share.
Greetings Everyone!
I have finally found my Lavender Orpington flock. Had purchased from a very reputable breeder. I am not looking to show them but had questions regarding the yellowing in my chicks. Is yellowing normal? Thank you all in advance. This is the GREATEST FORUM by the way ❤️
I should have taken a better photo before this guy went to our friends farm this week. My girls below I was told are maybe some type of Orpington. Can anyone give a guess to what they are? Crossed w/ Lavender Orpington Roo. Also, can anyone please tell me what type of feather pattern this is...
Yes ty. The first 2 photos are the same chick. It’s cross is Whiting Green/Lavender Roo. I was just wondering if it would throw blue or green eggs still after the cross.
The last photo is what I’m thinking people call a Black/Lavender Split. So if she’s a pullet, if I cross her back to...
Do I have a Black/Split Lavender from my BCM girl?
Do I have an Easter egger from my x Whiting True Green girl?
I’m not understanding what a Lavender Maran is? Would that eventually be my black/split Lavender x back to Lavender Roo?
I’m hoping to post more photos of different chicks this week...
