    Breeding out yellow soles in Australorp? Please help.

    @Amer, thank you very much! Yes, I am somewhat upset by this, too. The parents are not related, but obviously both sides carried yellow gene, thus the outcome. I will follow your advice, much appreciated!

    Breeding out yellow soles in Australorp? Please help.

    @chooki, thank you for sharing! She's lovely. I am referring to the breed standards, it says no yellow on the feet.

    Breeding out yellow soles in Australorp? Please help.

    Last year I bought Australorp eggs from several breeders (I am in Uzbekistan). They have beautiful flocks, but egg quality was horrendous, I only obtained about 12 birds from 50 eggs. Okay, I decided to work with what I have. I am not happy with overall vitality and sturdiness, but I do my best...

    Topic of the Week - Broody vs Incubator

    This year I managed - twice already and I am working on the third time - to synchronize my incubator and a hen, so that to give her the chicks from the incubator. Of course this only works because I have a small NR360; when I start using my larger one, it won't be possible. But at least this...

    Breeding Rhode Island Blue Roo

    Hi, this is a very impressive and informative lecture: thank you so much! Could you please advise what to read on color genetics? I hatched some blue and black Australorp and hope to hatch more, to have a flock; I would like to understand more about how they inherit color. I understand that what...

    Full Mottle(d) Jacket.. - my journey to a colorful coop...

    Thank you for sharing your experience! I was really concerned about that hatch rate (10 out of 25), but I could see the eggs were not good, because I removed eight on the 7th day (fertilized but not developing) and then I removed more. And still, I was so uncertain that I did another hatch with...

    I hope your beautiful JC recovers. And I am very sorry about the dead chick, unfortunately this happens a lot while they are young... I lost two of my precious chicks from those eggs that traveled and it was very sad. Now I only have eight out of 25. Hope your other chicks will grow strong and...

    Full Mottle(d) Jacket.. - my journey to a colorful coop...

    Hi, I have been reading your thread with great interest! May I ask you how long or far the eggs traveled and what is your incubator? I have had a really poor hatch rate in my NR360 this year with eggs that traveled just 250 km by car. The next hatch (from my hens) was much better, so I am...

    Korean Hanhyap (Tojon): is it even a breed? Or what?

    Huh, thank you for the suggestion! Haven't used Yandex for years, but now I will give it a try. This is a new photo of one of the pullets.

    Australorp babies, hatched on the 8th of April. I am not terribly happy with how they hatched and with their condition - the eggs traveled far and the hatch rate was low (10 out of 25, with 10 early quitters), the chicks hatched at 21-22 day and eventually two of them died, so I am left with...
