Would there be any interest in starting a breed club for campines? I know this is still a very slow breed when compared to the growing popularity of others. At shows I see people come look at my birds, say how pretty they are and how they'd love to have some and then walk away like they never...

Wow, I haven't been on here in forever. It's good to see everyone with greater numbers and better birds than what I remember it used to be! I myself have bred out a lot campines this year, most of them golden pullets. My spring show season has been pretty good this year, too!

Sure is neat! And it definitely doesn't look like a cross to me. It has a comb similar to wyandottes and still is hen feathered. Preston

They look to be silver penciled somethings

Deep Question: Is there any possible way for us Campine breeders to create a US Campine Breeders Club in honor of its 100th APA recognition anniversary? I joined this one http://thecampineclub.m.webs.com but it hasn't gone anywhere and only 3 members (including myself) are from the US. I...

Campines are almost always under-sized. At shows, my biggest campines win- even when a different bird is in almost perfect condition. So that's a biggie. Also look for correct colored shanks and eyes. You don't want to keep very many campines with those defects. Solid colored hackles are nice...

Like debs_flock said, it can be confusing and easy to mix them up at first. Before the feathers start coming in (1st week of age) I look at the top of the head (around the big spot) and the breast. Silvers will have a white/yellow tint down color and golds will be more of a brown or gold.

My stock: Silvers - 1 cockerel soon to be cock bird - 1 pullet Golds - 2 hens - 2 pullets I breed the silver male to gold females to get some of both colors. I'm still small (got them early last summer) but hoping to breed quite a bit this spring! The reason I asked about campine bantams is...

Has anybody thought about making campine bantams? How would you make them? Maybe find a bantam that is similar in genetics and/or color? Just curious!

How am I doing? I'll post some more later! Preston

This is what Cathy Gleason emailed me: "Silver with silver gives only silver offspring but silver on gold will give both sexes. I know with a ssilver hen and a gold male you will get just gold pullets and silver cockerels. With a gold hen and silver male I beilve the rule is both sexes again...

Okay, so does anybody know for sure how to make your own chamois campine color? I've heard people on here mention crossing white leghorns with golden campines. If this is so, who should be the male and who the female? Also, would I want to look for good leghorn stock since that breed and the...

I don't even know what a chamois chick looks like, but it has campine markings, then could that be a possibility? What hatchery did it come from? Keep an eye on it and keep us posted!

For all of you who show campines: How do y'all wash campines? Does anybody use bluing on silvers for the hackles? Or maybe whitening dog shampoo? I'm not too worried about the golds. Can't wait for my first show with campines!!!

WE NEED SOME MORE PICS OF CAMPINES ON THE CSU THREAD!!! GET INFO GATHERED AND READY TO GO AS WELL!!!

Wisher1000, wish I could help! How devastating! Well after looking at my chicks I was wondering... Is there a way to tell the sex of a day or two old campine chicks? Maybe patterns? I saw something on feathersite but wasn't really any help. I looked at the little undeveloped combs and they...

Sorry, roo is just an abbreviation of rooster... you know, like "SQ" instead of "Show Quality", or "RC RIR" instead of "Rose Comb Rhode Island Red"... I do use cock or cockerel at shows but I am typing what is easiest and fastest to type. Don't want to sound pushy but that's all it is. I...

Okay, so I was told that if you put a silver roo over some gold females that you would get a mix of golds and silvers in both male and female when you hatch their offspring. So I tried it and it looks like she was right. My new babies just hatched today and I found both silver and gold in the...

He is a LF cockerel... Wish I has campine bantams though! Lol I will try to post some pics of him with some gold girls later:D

Here is my silver roo... he is actually the one currently on the campine breed page. What do yall think?
