Quote: Mine also had green legs when they were chicks but the kind of got much darker almost to the point of being black now Beautiful roo btw. Maybe it was a White Rock X Silkie.

I had 2 of those and I usually would get about 12 eggs a week from both so I'm guessing about 6 each. Production Red hens are usually better layers than The heritage breeds like your RIR, but RIR's usually lay for a longer time than Production reds, so there's ups and downs to both.

Quote: Yeah Red Star and production red is the same thing just usually called different names by different hatcheries. They are often used in egg farms for their high egg production. Mine were rescue hens.

Quote: No RIR are very red almost dark red and my Production red hen had some whiteish on her feathers, so that disqualifies her as a RIR. This is her And this is the dad

Thanks. I wonder where the white color comes from tho, is it the from the mom or the dad?

Mrs. Fluffy Puffy : Quote: Those are sooo pretty! What color was the silkie? It was a Blue Splash.

This are my Silkie X Production Red chicks they are 15 weeks old And this other 2 are 6 week olds in this picture. Its interesting seems like all 5 are pullets. And if thats true then that means 100% pullets and no roos from my silkie crosses.
