That almost looks like lacing, rather than barring, except on the tail..... hmmm...very interesting indeed!
It looks that way, but last time i checked it was barring lol, but yes i thought the same thing after looking at the picture.
hey guys and gals,
i got one picture before the batterys went out!
Sorry about quailty, i have not yet installed my photo editing program so had to use the BYC resizer :?
the cock is the one with the most barring. i well try and get petter pictures some other day!
Hey all,
Remember those funky coloured chicks?
Well i have a barred cockerl, and a lose bared female out of those to.... i say lose barred but i well get pictures of them for you lol.
Any one have any pure barred bantams??
ETA,
They have muffs five toes (though one has the fith toe fused...
Maybe a rooster got in the pen.... But it is one of those pens where chickens can get in but not out (if that makes sense) the fence is so high they would not be able to fly out

Me too i well be able to tell if a rooster got in there and got out. But see i have one hen that can get in (Not sure how) but she can never get out... I have never pulled a rooster from that pen.
The chick looks like it has black legs or am I seeing things?
Seeing things. I took...

But how would it hactch?? Trust me, i know that bantam can breeds LF. But the emybro should die.
Don't know what to tell you on that one... I hatched a ton of them this year & read about people doing that all the time...

Anyways there has never been another rooster in that...

Nah, people breed large fowl / bantam crosses all the time, in fact I did it this year...

Well, be sure to update the pics in a few weeks. I'll be curious to see what he/she turns out to look like. I've had a few that were more orange than yellow but never any that were dark like that.
Well do. The only other chick i hatched out this year waz a normal coloured chick...
The only other roosters were LF, and i don't think it would be easy for them to mate a bantam hen. If they were to mate the chick should have died in incubation
ETA. The chicks feet are orgish. Gonna post pics this afternoon

Can you post a pic of it? Is it a possibility that the hen was still carrying semen from another roo?
I well tommrow. I got home from the fair just now (been there fri,sun,mun) I dobut it. The only other chicken in there for the last 7-9 months is a Silver Penciled Pullet. The Fences...
