Did you ever figure out your RIRxbrown leghorns? I just hatched some. My roo is the brown leghorn. I also have some from New Hampshire reds, Dominique, silver laced Wyandotte, and others Excited to see how they turn out.

I've wondered the same about mine. I have BAs and BGs and WGs hens from a hatchery. The BAs and WGs are 1 yr old next month. My so called WGs are no bigger than the BAs. The BGs are 7 mons and not quite as big as the BAs. FYI The BAs are normal size chickens. Roughly the same as my New...

Thanks. I was thinking the questionable Dominique was a different breed but wasn't sure if coming from a hatchery it was just a genetic quirk from not breeding to a physical standard. Both wyandottes have the same red comb so I'm hoping they are both pullets. They are so physically different...

Sorry, i tried to post several pics in my first post with no luck. Then tried to post a reply with pics-no luck. Then i got kicked off. Soooo, Ill try again. They were all born on Aug 26, 2014. The Dominique in question is lighter, has shorter tail feathers, and what looks like a single comb...

Thank you everyone for your suggestions! Those are some beautiful roos! How about the Wyandottes either the silver laced or the Partidge. I cant tell from the google pics if the pics are actually of the breeeds what is this guy? .

Hello, Im a city slicker who recently bought and moved out to 11 very rural acres to train/raise dogs. Im new to poultry and learning as i go. Thanks!

Hi, I just lost my Barred Rock Roo to a rogue Rottweiler. I've had tough first go at raising chickens as I am a former city slicker now living in the back of beyond. Now that everything is secure, I'm giving it another go and want opinions on a big, pretty Roo to complement my flock of 8-12...
