She's nice!!! Here is what I have so far... One of my black hens. My splash hen. Another black and a blue hen with my blue rooster on the right. Not sure what to do with him and I don't think I will use him for my BBS breeding.

Any pictures??? Want a 'study buddy' so we can bounce ideas and conclusions off each other??

Glad I read some posts before posting my question. I wondered about the same thing with a blue rooster I have with red leaking. I am keeping black, blue and splash Cochins for my program. I also want to experiment on trying for something like this Cochin as a side project: Which is why I...

Teaching moment with new Momma hen!!

First picture of new chicks!!! Mom is being so good. First one was hatched late on Friday and I 'think' she has 3 in there right now. There were 5 eggs so maybe two more??? Who knows? :) I put her box down on the lower level but she hasn't offered to take them out yet.

Thank you. I was actually thinking of doing something like that. I have cat litter containers for boxes so I can move them easily. I think I will move the box once the chicks are born and put everyone into a small fenced area for a few days. :)

Thanks for the ideas. I am so hoping for homebred chicks. :)

So, just for my clarification, vulture hocks actually have nothing to do with the angle of the hocks, just the growth of the feathers??

I am sorry to hear that but so glad your girl has lived a long and happy life!!!

Any updates on your Lemon Pyles?? I am very interested in adding or breeding this color. Thank you!!!

I would like to maintain a flock as close to the standard as possible and then develop/enhance two rare colors. I really like the Lemon Pyle and that will be one of my colors. like also gold laced and blue partrige but haven't decided between those 2 yet.

Thanks so much for your reply and the information. I'll look into Rays Marans. If you ever think about it, could you get information on the Brahama breeder in Montgomery County?? Again, thank you.

My Lakenvelders are late for this time of the year so they will spend a comfortable winter in the house. They are about 8 weeks right now. Here is a picture of my roo, Bruce Henner.
