I find sexing day old SG Dorking pretty easy. I will send you a pdf that helped me when I started and found it to be spot on. Have fun, we love raising them. Lisa

I can't wait until just one of my girls goes broody. Hopefully next spring!

I am so glad Junior healed up he was one very brave guy.

Kim, great pictures of your dorkings from February. I waited until the end of April to hatch some of our dorking chicks because it had been so cold up here. I ended up culling the rooster after the hatch because he threw three 4 toed chicks and he was so darn mean to us. I was super excited...

Very cute pictures, made me smile.

The first ones I got from the hatchery in July started right at 5 months. I hatched some out last October and they did not start laying until late March this spring.

Way to go junior!! You have to love a rooster like that, he would be a keeper and I hope he is on the mend.

Great Pics Scott. Lisa

I will try to make it, it would be great to meet you all.

Thank you ki4got.

Does anyone ever get 4 toes when breeding all 5 toed Dorkings hens with 5 toed Dorking rooster? from what I've read it can happen if the rooster and hen have a 4 toed recessive gene. Is this correct?

I agree raising SG Dorkings is not a science it is a journey and that is why I find it exciting.

Hello Everyone, I'm from the lakes region of NH.

Hi Everyone, We are raising Silver Gray Dorkings and I just recently found the Chicken Swaps of NH I am trying to increase and improve my flock. For those of you still hatching for next spring how long do you leave heat lights on them now that the weather is getting colder? All the Best, Lisa

Congratulations, you must be very excited and I'm excited for you. I will let others provide imput on your boy, but I think he looks nice.
