I incubate mine at 37.5 degrees Celsius and 45% RH. I found nearly 100% hatch rates with Brodie’s though. I feed mine organic free range layers pellets as adults, chick crumb with coccidiosistat in it as chicks and organic growers until they start laying.

Where about do you live as I breed the original chamois pencilled friesian fowl

I doubt there is much difference, I think it's more just colouring, mine are chamois pencilled so they should have white tail and patterned/coloured body but I've had good pencilled and they have the gold in the same place but the white is replaced with black

They were about 2o-24 weeks old, once they started they didn't stop Deffinetly my favourite breed

They are very pretty, how old??

I have some old pics so will try and get up to date ones tomorrow

I've just got a new chamois pencilled friesian rooster to go in with my girls to mix bloodlines Hopefully going to have lots of little ones next spring. I had two unwanted roosters last year from a hatch but these two ended up being very poor quality in the colour department so i decided I'd...

I think lemon pencilled is the same if not then its a lighter shade than chamois. That last rooster isn't friesian, what breed is he?

ahh wow, they look nice, do u have any more uptodate pics????, also any pictures of your older ones you showed in previous posts

haha, well if you have any questions on the breed at all just ask, im happy to help, they really are a great breed :)

How are they doing, so sad no one is interested

Hi, not many people on here with this breed :) you can normally tell at roughly 5weeks old, the males combs will be getting bigger and pinker. tou could try a test at 3 weeks where you get them all in an area, get them settled then drop and hat by them from high up, in theory the males will look...
