When I was young my mother bought 6 bantam hens that closely resemble Porcelain d'Uccle but were pure white and layed a pale green egg. It would seem they were some sort of cross but they all looked so much alike I think it would have to be an intentional cross any ideas what that cross could be?

My chicks are 3 1/2 months old now and a couple of the pullets are starting to get really red faces. An RSL which isn't unheard of for them to lay at 16 weeks,but I also have a New Hampshire that is getting a really red face and waddles are coming in quickly. I also have 4 cockerels in the pen...

My Black Minorca's are 11 days old +/- a day and today I can see the difference between the cockerel and the two pullets. I'm really excited because that means I can spend a little more time with him so maybe he will be a good friendly roo.

I have had my chicks for just over a week now. I have 27 asst. breeds and I'll watch them for a half hour straight and I don't see any dominate chicks yet. How old do they get before they figure the pecking order? I always thought it happened within a couple of days?
