    breeding frizzle

    I don't believe the brittle feathers pass - if she is a Frazzle I would help her out by putting a saddle on her - Frazzles produce all Frizzle offspring when put with a smooth - I've never bred a Frazzle or have had a Frazzle as it's not a recommended practice, and most I believe use Frazzle...

    LAV Gene Project Question

    I've been working with the LAV in another project but I have the LAV or a Split to put back with, so I know for sure I'll get the LAV to come out - but the pair I decided to do another project on are Bantam size and I can't put my standard Roo with her - if I wouldn't of lost the Roo to pair...

    LAV Gene Project Question

    http://kippenjungle.nl/kruising.html I have a IPhone or I use on a IPad with no issues - maybe it's your type of phone? I've been using this for a while and has helped out with figuring out my "project" outcome or how I need to do it to get what I want

    LAV Gene Project Question

    I usually leave a new Roo to the flock for a month or more before I hatch any out to make sure that is the Roo I want - I can go either way if I get even a LAV Roo or LAV hens after, then place those where I need them to be to finish

    LAV Gene Project Question

    I guess one way I could do it is take the Roos from the hatch and place back to mom and test the gene that way- then if I get Lavs in the mix I'll at least get the color to continue with, I have my other flocks to work with, it's just getting that LAV to come out to move on

    LAV Gene Project Question

    I have been working with LAV Gene in a project I decided to start - Thing is I had hatched out the breed characteristics that I want and size I want as a "Split" - Sadly I only wound up with 1 Roo and 1 hen with my desired looks, then out of the blue I lost the Roo I was going to pair with my...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    Here's an update on my "oddball" since it's been a while- he's almost all feathered out now- Sadly I lost most of the chicks, due to too many Roos, some under developed. I have 3 remaining - Oddball, a Lav Cochin characteristic and a lav hen (Cochin characteristic) - Oddball will pick up where...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    If your going for coloring keep in mind the Roo is generally the key to coloring and a lot of other things - so if grand sire has the color gene you want yes - My set the Roos are the ones that came up with the color - I was going to put any hens (if they have that hidden gene but not showing)...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    Are they Splits? If so your only option would be to put them back to LAV Roo - any other color won't pull out Lavs - you will get LAV and Split combination - so you would need a bunch of eggs to try to get what you want - I wound up my first set 2 split, 4 LAV and luckily lost the splits as I...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    1 Roo from my older set shows to be the only one who is showing the coloring - the other 2 Roos are just LAV and the hen is LAV so far - they are still young and debating if I should keep him My 2nd set of course popped out 3 Roos again and 1 hen - but this set has 2 LAV and 2 Split My...

    breeding frizzle

    I've only bred Frizzle Hen to Smooth Roo - I was wondering if you take a Frizzle Roo to smooth hen do you actually get a higher chance of Frizzled chicks as in most cases the Roo is the key - I ask because my one momma hen hatched out 2 chicks and 1 is Frizzled - if it winds a Roo which more...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    I just hatched out my Red Cochin Split and LAV hen chicks - luckily I got 5 Lav babies out of the bunch - I noticed I need more Cochin for sure lost some of the feathering on feet - due to having to put back to Orpington - if these are hens they have to go back to dad - then after that I get to...

    Lavender X Buff Orpington cross

    Missed this before- our current Orpingtons are from The Fancy Chick which I will tell you we are very pleased with them - the LAV cuckoo and Jubilee are from their lines - we sadly had to put the Jubilee Roo down as he was extremely aggressive to the point there was no working around it -...
