    B.Y.C. Dorking Club!

    I am breeding show quality Dorkings in every color silver grey, dark grey, red, colored, except white and ended up with a white cockerel and a white chick so far and several reds and colored Dorkings. Where is the white coming from?

    just sold all of my baby chicks!!

    This is totally off topic but can someone direct me to other forum members who breed Dorkings, I got show quality stock from a local breeder in every color except white and somehow produced what I believe is a white Dorking, possibly another younger white one too. I am puzzled by this.

    HELP Hen stepped on egg and embryo exposed, egg shell coming off too early

    In the future I will be avoiding hatching pullet eggs, and try to avoid delayed late hatching due to colder temps. I believe this would solve the splayed leg issues.

    HELP Hen stepped on egg and embryo exposed, egg shell coming off too early

    Both the 2 chicks with splayed legs died today despite me treating the first one with Band-Aids to unsplay its legs, and electrolytes, it never ate on its own and only drank small amounts of water by me holding it up to the water and electrolytes. My guess it was too weak from not eating and...
