Wondering about color genetics . If I took my blue mottled Orps to my Lavender orps what would that look like? Also, if I took my black spangled orps to the Lavender what would that look like-I'm guessing all black ?
It would be interesting to know if there is an app regarding color genetics...
Regarding Lavender x Mottled Blue and or Lavender x spangled blacks. I would love to know what would come out or this. I would appreciate any information on this.
Yes. It could be that my deworming did not cover what it needed to. Or that they are still shedding them.
I do have diatomaceous earth and use it weekly in the coop in warm weather.
My concern is worming them again for a 3rd time. I know it's hard on their bodies. Not sure what to do there ...

Yes. The few that were sick in the flock started to get better. Combs were back to red. Very little coughing. Sneezing. You could hear less wheezing and rattling when they breathe. I was hopeful. Then 2 days ago I noticed that now all of them.are back to the sneezing. Hacking. Rattling ...
The coop is clean. Did a huge overhaul on it after they got sick. They don't spend much time in it latley. There is 1 chicken that lays a wrinkled egg. None of the other do. IB?
They don't get a ton of extras a day. Mainly the pellets and foraging bugs etc. I was giving them quite a bit of...
Ohhh. I was watching so many videos and they said to use garlic in the water. Crap!!!
No bubbles in eyes however some of their faces are slightly swollen. Slight.
