    Cuckoo Silkies- Updated Pics Page 4

    I haven't found an answer how to tell the difference yet. If they are like my double cuckoo Polish then it would be lighter in coloring. I doubt anyone is sellingchicks with the weather being hot. Also many breeders of this color hold onto their chicks. Keep your eye out on the buy, sell...

    No you do not have to breed to a solid color to get the barred gene chicks. From what I have researched a single barred roo x cuckoo hen gives you double cuckoo boys, single cuckoo boys, cuckoo girls and black girls. When using a double barred roo x cuckoo hen t will give you double cuckoo boys...

    Also mine never brood in it. They just sit in the shavings. When one goes another will join shortly. I have anywhere from 2-4 on a clutch. They will raise the chicks and go broody again. I have 7 girls. Two just hatched chicks. Then all 4 in a breeding pen went broody. I only have 1 girl walking...

    My nest boxes are ground level. As often as they go broody its a good idea especially if they will be raising the chicks. The bitties can move in and out. I wouldn't make them to high off the ground.
