    Peach

    I'm supposed to be getting some peach peafowl. I'm new to peach. Since it's a sex-link color, does that mean there's a way to tell at hatch if they are male or female? The breeders are all peach pied/white eye/silver pied/solid.

    When should my Guineas start laying?

    I got my Guinea keets last June. I live in PA. At what point should the females start laying? I was planning on hatching them for people, but I'm not sure what to tell them for a time frame.

    Blue Red Laced Wyandotte

    I understand that blue red laced wyandottes do not breed true. So if you breed two blue laced reds together, will they produce only 50% blue red laced Wyandotte chicks. Another 25% will be black laced red Wyandottes and 25% will be splash laced red Wyandottes? Or is it something entirely different?

    Poults from same hen, multiple toms?

    I started breeding different varieties of turkeys this year. I had the hen separated with the tom for over a month before collecting eggs. I know that some will hold onto sperm longer that. But my question is, is it possible for eggs from the same week of collecting to have been fathered by...

    Lavender/Blue Slate

    I have a question about breeding. I am new to raising turkeys and I purchased 3 "blue slate" poults last spring. We realized that one of the poults was considered a Lavender after we brought them home. They were sold to me as Blue Slates though. This spring I am going to start breeding and...
