Thanks for your reply! I can't find anything online about paint leghorns being a thing. If this is so, would the female paint offspring end up with fibro skin and show up looking like a "Zombie"?
I just hatched out my first zombie cross with a Leghorn hen and Cemani Roo.
One chick is white with white skin, the other is black with purplish skin…. Can some explain why they aren’t coming out fibro with white feathers?
Thanks.
Hello Everyone,
I am looing to create some sexlink crosses for chicks. Let me know if any of these combo's will in fact yield sex links:
Cream Legbar Hen x Black Copper Maran Roo = Sexlink Olive Egger?
Cream Legbar Hen x Purebred Splash Ameraucana Roo = Sexlink EE? Or does the splash throw...
Not quite what I was asking about! Just asking what breeds are homozygous for blue egg genes rather than hetero. I already have the roosters that I need. It was more so for picking the right hen. I’m breeding for green and don’t want brown eggs popping up down the line.
Thanks though.
Hey all
What breeds lay blue eggs and have two copies of the blue egg gene. I want to start a breeding project but want to make sure I'm selecting the right birds. I know true Americana and Araucana both do. Just un- sure the other blue of layers out there.
These two came out of a shipment of Black Sexlink and black Australorps. They clearly aren’t either. The thick leg with light feathering is throwing me. They aren’t big enough to be a Cochin or Brahma. Could it be a Maran or French Maran of sorts? 7 weeks old.
I have an Americauna Roo, that is blue cuckoo. Is this a pure-breed like he was supposed to be? I recently read that Americauna are usually solid in color. Would breeding him with my Blue Americauna hen give show quality birds?
Americauna Hen crossed with Buff Orpington Roo would this give me Easter a Egger chicks?
I also have Easter Egger Hens that I could cross with my Roo. Would that still give me colored egg layers?
Right now Pullets are the biggest part of business. Gift shop is mostly homestead and chicken themed shirts, decor and candles etc. Already have a business name more so looking for the classification on what we are when explaining us to someone.
