    Breeding Game Size Polish Chickens

    Hello! I have three Polish roosters that were gifted to me. The one that does not have the best head feathering I believe is a candy corn. Not sure on the other two colors but I believe they are good quality. I think one’s a silver and the lighter candy corn ish color I’m not sure- please tell...

    Breeding Freedom Ranger

    I do have two orders of Cornish x coming in this year. Just wanted to see the meat difference with the red rangers and possibly incorporate into my egg laying line if they’re of good quality. Thank you so much!

    Perfect. I may incorporate the best into my lines and butcher the rest when I figure out which layers are superior. Thank you!

    Breeding Freedom Ranger

    Purchased 10 freedom rangers to add to my egg layer flock until freezer camp when laying slows down. I was reading they’re (terminal crosses). What the heck does this mean? Do I need to separate from my egg layer flock and Roos because I will get monstrosities? Lol I currently have silver laced...

    Cockerel or pullet silkie?

    Yes, all from same breeder and already quarantined newbies. It’s just starting to warm up here. Even my big guys aren’t old enough to be without a heater in the coop unless it’s over 55. I honestly thought common sense that’s why I didn’t add in the original post but I’m not surprised it’s not!

    Cockerel or pullet silkie?

    I know! They’re going back outside. Took pics while I’m introducing to make sure everyone gets along before sending two gray chicks out with the heat lamp. Don’t want anyone getting beat up. Thanks!

    Cockerel or pullet silkie?

    Black/lavender split silkie. Only one from this hatch that I’m unsure of sex. Same size of other roosters from this hatch, other roosters in this color have very visible streamers and are much more aggressive (can post pic of definite Roos if needed). Pic of hen/roo in question next to definite...

    Yes, that’s what I was thinking! Do lavender chicks sell for more than other colors? If so how much?

    UPDATE: girl is definitely a blue and the boy is a light gray confirmed by breeder. Blue is not going to work with any of my other chickens going to swap blue out for colors that will work. Thanks everyone ❤️

    Yeah, he does* have black skin. Everything else about the splash is standard besides the unusual coloring thus far. I will update with pictures as he grows! Awesome, I’ll keep that in mind. Hubby might get his wish after all to just start with this flock. They were $25 a piece as chicks 🫣

    Silkie Color Verification and Breeding Program

    I am so confused about what I have at this point and what to do with it! lol!! Maybe it is a mottled splash? He sure is beautiful! Honestly, if I’m already out of color standard does it matter if I don’t breed color pure? I’m sure the chicks would sell for less. Would I be considered an...

    She is pure white with a little maybe gray feathering on the tips of her wings? She had a lot more color before molting and now is almost pure white at 2 months old.

    Silkie Color Verification and Breeding Program

    Okay so the one that looks gray or blue you believe to be a blue? I’m not sure if the white is dominant or recessive. I will ask the breeder the next time she texts me back. How will that change what color chicks she produces? Fantastic so if I do have the black, blue, splash, I’m already well...

    Silkie Color Verification and Breeding Program

    The breeder is big time into the showing world so she breeds most colors, I believe except buff and partridge. She accidentally gave me the (possible gray?) she meant to keep that one for her showing program. The other one she said she believes is a splash because she did not have any paints...
