    Wesummer laying a blue egg - What gives?

    I have two welsummer pullets given to me by a friend. One lays the expected dark brown egg, the other, we are quite sure, a pale blue egg. This baffled me at first. My daughter pointed out that Russet's comb is pea type, not like the one you should see on a Welsummer, but in all other respects...

    For The Warden - BLRW chick colors.......2 and 2 for mine.

    I wanted you to know that of the four BLRWs I hatched, I am pretty sure I have 2 blues and 2 splashes. No black ones, and one of the splashes I could be wrong about. I am a neophyte so the only thing I am sure of is that none of them are black. How did yours breakdown by percentage?

    The frizzle gene - how does it work?

    All right - I have a serama chick that's 6 weeks old. She has a lot of feathers in and I am sure they are frizzle. Its the weirdest thing I ever saw. The place I got my eggs didn't mention this possibility. Where does this gene come from? Can any group of chickens come up with it unexpectedly...

    Do marans eggs require different humidity setting?

    I have just set some BCMs in the bator and am a little confused about some of the info concerning hatching them. Some say they require the same humidity as any other eggs and some say dryer? What's the opinion of that? I'd like to get it right. I have never done these before.

    BLRW eggs - Anyone know the color breakdown for chicks hatched?

    I have BLRW eggs in the incubator. Anyone know what the color expectations are? I understand the color doesn't breed true, but I may be wrong. I am very curious about what I may expect.

    How long past 21 days has a chick hatched successfully?

    How long past 21 days can one reasonably expect a chick might hatch? I don't want to crack an egg to determine what happened if there is still a chance for hatching. I had one Serama hatch at 22 days which seems very irregular since they are supposed to be early (19 days?). I would like to get...

    When are the chicks old enough to go outside in winter?

    I have 5 - 7 week old chicks. (3 Delawares and 2 ameraucanas). I plan to move them to a heated cage outside when they are 2 months or so old. Is that too soon? It would stay at about 40 degrees. How old should they be to go in the coop with the pullets and hens? It is well insulated but not heated.
