    how many generations too see the color I’m looking for?

    Can I get the outcome I’m looking for in the 2nd year of breeding? If I were to breed a blue to a mottled what should I look for in the offspring? my other question would be if I were to breed the brother and sister would I get blue mottled chicks from them?

    Bantam not eating, not as active

    Hello! I have a mottled cochin bantam (Gil) about 18 weeks old. She lives with two blue Andalusians that are the same age. Yesterday when I let them out, I noticed that none of them were really eating very much. The blues did a little bit, but Gil didn't at all. She ate grass and whatever bugs...

    Does this mean the chick is male or is there something wrong?

    This chick was naturally bred by our Cochin Bantam rooster and Japanese Bantam hen. We've had 2 other chickens bred from these two who both turned out to be hens. Does the lump on this chicks chest signify that its a rooster or some sort of issue like an air bubble?

    Hello! I will be breeding a silkie rooster to a bantam brahma and a frizzle bantam cochin.
