So I hatched out six tolbunts. Three are 12 weeks old and three are 10 weeks old. I think only one is a male. Is this possible? I will post some pictures as soon as I can.
So I have a breeding question. I have three Tolbunt polish. A rooster and hen who I think are brother and sister, cause their from the same person. I also have a rooster from eggs I hatched on eBay. Would it be ok to breed the hen to the unrelated roo and take the females from them and breed...
So I think I got my first Tolbunt egg today. Here is a pic
The top egg is a store egg, second is a dorking egg, third is a silkie and I think that last one is a Tolbunt. What do you guys think?
Yeah I am in south east lower MI. It just started getting warm here too. All of my chickens stopped laying over winter this year and one just started up two days ago. So I'm hoping it will be soon.
Blackgoat how old is your girl? Mine is nine months old and I'm still waiting for an egg. I thought she laid one but it was one of my other pullets. I'm hoping it will be soon.
I think that egg i got was from a silkie or maybe my dorking. So when do Tolbunt polish start laying? I got a pair of them in July they are about 6 months old now. The male just started crowing yesterday.
Hmm maybe it was one of my silkies. There eggs are usually darker. I don't know. I have two silkie pullets that hatched in May do you think it could be one of them?
My Tolbunt hen just laid her first egg today. It is so small. The rooster I got at the same time as her hasn't started crowing yet. They were both born in July.
Yeah I know it is too early to tell. I will most likely keep this chick regardless of if its a rooster or not. He is the only one of four chicks that hatch that has survived. His crest is small but he didnt have a vault either so maybe that's why. I do see a little redness at the base of his...
Oh yeah I see what you mean. This one is definitely a Mohawk. I had one chick who I thought was a girl because of the fan like puff, but turned out to be a boy. I was really hoping for a girl cause i have one Tolbunt and one gold laced rooster. Oh well.
Hey any guesses on the sex of this polish? It really has me stumped. It is seven weeks old it has been pretty slow at getting its feathers. It's head puff is like a Mohawk.
