I thought you bred the pure lavender to the splits to get lavenders. Can you do both, or is the split to split preferable?

Some things you do not talk about. He will figure it out when I start on the next pen..........

That was exactly what I was thinking. Another variety.....another pen. I will be keeping my future babies for a while to see what I have before I let someone else have them. I am just glad to know how they happened. The lady that had them was going to do that but they both turned out to be roos.

I believe you have just solved a problem for me. I hatched white chicks last year and had no idea where they came from. I had BBS and Lav eggs in the incubator and unfortunately, I did not separate or remember which was which. I gave the babies away, and was shocked when I was told I had two...

I have a lavender roo and hen, but unfortunately they were from the same breeding pen. I have been thinking that I would use my black hens to obtain splits, and work from that direction for breeding the lavender hen. I did not know that you could use blue since it is not on my breeding chart...

Thank you very much. Guess I better hope one of my lavs is a roo! If not, it'll be a while before I get any lav chicks. Would have to get splits first. Or, buy more lavs next year! There goes the chicken math.

Yes, this is only my third post and the first on this board, but I have been lurking for a while. I will get my first Ameraucanas this spring from Paul/Angela Smith, and yes I feel like I won the lottery. I will be getting some blacks and 2 lavenders which I hope are two pullets. I am sure...
