Haha, me again looking for photos. For this project, on recessive white vs dominant white, I need photos of (you guessed it) recessive white, and dominant white birds, but most importantly, paint birds as I do not have high quality pictures of the paint variety. They don't have to be great...
Thank you. 🤗 I've tried asking for pictures from members on BYC but got no response. Even asked on Facebook but it was the same story: treated with Elector PSP and forgot to take pictures. I'll keep searching. 🙃
WOW, This is VERY helpful, thank you! Sadly I couldn't quite find what I was looking for, but I'm sure it will be very helpful for looking for pictures of less specific things. Should save me a lot of time. Thank you again!
Yes they do. My channel isn't monetized yet but may be in the future when it can be. That's really the main reason why I wasn't sure about it. I'm not sure if she would like photo credit but I'm absolutely willing to give it if she wants! I just wasn't sure since most people probably don't want...
Hi all! I've been working on a video project (that will be on YouTube) regarding molting. I wanted to include a small section on lice/mites so people could tell the difference and act accordingly. It's aimed at people that are very new to chickens and I figured the more information I could share...
This one might seem a bit strange, but I think my D'Uccles would have fun with it! Since I can't always free range them, I've been looking for mentally stimulating items to keep them entertained. Today I was putting some preventative medication in their water and was using a colorful set of...
Hi all! I'm working on a project on molting chickens and wanted to briefly go over lice/mites. I know lice/mites don't cause molting. ;) It's geared towards new chicken owners and since I've been seeing so many new people confuse molting for lice/mites, I wanted to include a bit of info on it to...
It didn't. 🙃 Turns out her eggs weren't fertile. I've never forget Skunk but honestly I only vaguely remember trying to hatch her eggs! I've since learned more about chicken genetics for other reasons. If I had to guess now I would say they'd probably have messy incomplete lacing if the Sebright...
Definitely are both roosters. The saddle feathers are the easiest way to tell especially at this age. 😁 As cherrynberry said above, a bachelor pad would be best. Looks like these two are getting along which is good. 🙂
This one is confusing. :hmm At 5 months judging by the wattle size I'd say hen. But the overall body stance looks more rooster-ish to me, although generally the large TSC silkies do look that way. 😁 I'm gonna say pullet, but would love to hear if it starts crowing or laying in a few more weeks. 🙂
He's stunning! The project has been completed, but I'll keep him in mind if I need another! Thanks a bunch! So sorry you lost him, he looks very handsome. 😍
Rose combs are dominant to single combs, so all the offspring should have rose combs, IF the hens are homozygous for the rose comb gene. You will find out pretty quickly if one is heterozygous for a rose comb, because when mated with a single comb rooster, 50% should have single combs and 50%...
Thank you! I always thought mottled was recessive but I'm starting to see more and more evidence that it is actually incomplete dominant. 😁 I didn't know that about the double laced and mottled gene producing single lacing, that's fascinating!
