    SL Wyandotte over Soeckled Sussex… Any guesses on colors? Who’s into color genetics?!

    Hi everyone! This is just for fun, but I’d love to hear what you think of these lil chicks and how they’ll turn out. Rooster is SL Wyandotte. Hen is Speckled Sussex and maybe a Saphire Gem? I know it was two hen’s eggs, but I can’t for the life of me figure out the second hen. Anywho, my...

She...

    Broody or depressed?

    This is my first time doing this: introducing chicks to a broody mom. I need advice. I had 4 laying hens, all bantam size. 2 of those hens are silkies and they always stuck next to each other. Almost 5 days ago I had one of my silkie’s pass away due to what I assume was a heart attack when...

    What gender are these three chicks?

    I have three chicks, they are 2 months old and I hope i have atleast one girl. If I get any boys I could probably give one to my neighbor as he just culled his roo because he was too aggressive.

    Any predictions for how these crossed chicks may look fully feathered/grown?

    We recently allowed a broody hen to hatch some of her own eggs; she is a blue laying easter egger and the rooster sire is a cuckoo marans buff orpington cross. The chicks all look a little different from each other and I'm really curious to hear any predictions for their phenotypes. Also, if you...
