    Campine Chicken thread?

    Campines as with any other Gold/Silver pairing are sexlinked for the first generation. With a silver male and a golden female you will get Silver Pullets and Golden Cockerels. If the cross has been done in the past on the birds you use you may get some outliers depending on the genetic make up...

    Campine Chicken thread?

    Could you please link again? I'd love to see this. You're not in US, but are standards close to the same? Pattern wise, with so much variation called for in the different sections of the bird, do you have any tips or hints to share that might help one make progress in this area? In your...

    Campine Chicken thread?

    Think this is a big problem with breed in general. I haven't been able to find someone else online that has experience breeding to standard to ask questions. This is my first year with the breed and I have lots of experience and know the standard very well, but don't have firsthand knowledge...

    Campine Chicken thread?

    If you use a Silver cock or cockerel (don't know what a "roo" is but using that term won't make real poultry people take you seriously) over Gold Hens/Pullets you will have sexlinked offspring. Pullets will be Silver and Males will be Gold unless there's some dilution genes present. You may end...

    Looks like his barring is nice. Are his hackles creamy or just sun bleached? Bantam Campine? If not then he looks small or you have a giant hand. LOL

    The pullet to go with the cockerel I posted above. Both are Duane Urch stock, mid-late Feb hatch.

    Just wanted to share a photo of my ~20 week old cockerel. I'll try to get a photo of the pullet soon. I think he's coming along pretty well but would welcome input.
