    marans X hy-line

    https://www.backyardchickens.com/reviews/easter-egger-x.12146/ I am going to do the test and then cross the f1 females to araucanas, ameraucanas and legbars to create an f2 easter egger.

    marans X hy-line

    Yes, white rocks are the mothers of the industrial red sex links. But, hy-line selects stock since 1936 to achieve the optimum results.

    marans X hy-line

    Understood. Thank you so much for all this information.

    marans X hy-line

    But their mothers (carefully selected white rocks since 1936) do have the silver gene.

    marans X hy-line

    White why? Because of the dominant white genes and the silver genes contained in the maternal white rocks that are used to create the hy-line browns?

    marans X hy-line

    Hello. What shall I expect from a cross between black copper marans roosters and hy-line brown hens? I need darker and harder eggs than hy-line browns and more eggs than marans hens.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    Exactly! It is poor. No vitamins, no aminos, protein too low. But, heritage breeds can thrieve on this poor feeding and can offer sustainability to the farmer who lives in the acres. Hybrid chickens will show extremely low production in these conditions. This is the key, this is the point...

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    The feed mix was 50% corn, 25% barley, and 25% wheat. Oyster shell offered in a separate feeder. Grit also in a separate feeder.

    Interesting all this, but I do not have more data to offer.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    IT ONLY MEANS THAT HERITAGE BREEDS ARE ABLE TO CONVERT LOW-DENSITY FARM RATIOS, SCRATCH A PRODUCER CAN PRODUCE BY HIS OWN FIELDS, CAN ADAPT TO SOY-FREE, FISH-FREE, MEAT-FREE FEEDING ETC. HYBRID CHICKENS NEED HIGH OCTANE FEED AND WHEN GIVEN SCRATCH AND LOW-DENSITY RATIOS IN GENERAL, THEIR...

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    No, it was very unofficial because the number of the layers and meaties participating was too small. A researcher will start with the statement - "Traditional heritage chickens need lower feed density to achieve the highest of their total production."

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    Hybrids like industrial white leghorns and commercial red sex links. From the other side, transylvanians, plymouth rocks, orpingtons, australorps, leghorns, andalusians etc.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    Sorry, but I have to prove nothing. For further information ask farmers living in the acres in your country. Hybrid chickens have much smaller needs in feed density.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    Make your own study if you are a researcher. But, the number of the birds must be very big. But, I think that there will not be any interest. The results I published are from flock tests taking part in small farms in Greece.

    Columbian Leghorns: Which are the ancestor of the breed?

    Brown eggs? And leghorns? No, they are not leghorns. The may be columbian plymouth rocks. https://www.dominant-cz.cz/programy/hneda-skorapka/detail/21/dominant-sussex-d104 Hatch the eggs under broody hens. They will help the baby chick flee.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    Farmers living in the acres produce their own corn or/wheat and offer it to their chickens. In these conditions heritage chickens like white rocks overlay a hybrid layer like industrial leghorns and RSL, because they manage to cover a bigger amount of their smaller needs.

    Test results, dear.

    Main Differences between heritage breeds and hybrids in average feed density needs

    My sources are experienced greek farmers testing their stock for many many years. They key is that heritage breeds thrive on less protein, which means less soy bean.
