    Cochin and Wyandote Cross

    Hi, I have this 11 weeks rooster. I'm thinking it's a silver laced / white columbian mix between a Cochin and a Wyandotte. I have other various mixes between different colors of cochins and that's why I suspect it's partially a cochin. Or maybe Brahma and Wyandotte. I'm not sure what kind of...

    Odd cross, Guesses on sex?

    So I decided to see if my sliver laced wyandotte roo would successfully mate with my porcelain d'uccle hen. And it worked! I successfully hatched a chick. And it turned out SO cool. It has its moms mutton chops, feathered legs, and comb. But has its dads color, except opposite design. And it has...

    Silver Inheritance?

    Before I start: This is all under the assumption that what I think I know is true, that silver is a dominant sex-linked trait, and turns gold/red color white. Hopefully that is true. I have a 12 week old pullet that is bred from an EE hen and a Lakenvelder rooster. All of her feathers are white...

    Blue Egg EE x Buff Orp Roo = Green Egg Layer?

    I've got a brown Easter Egger from Hoover's Hatchery that lays blue eggs. My only roo is a Buff Orp. EE's eggs are fertile and I'm getting ready to start an incubator batch this week. I'd like to put some of her eggs in with the purebred BO eggs to get little easter egger chicks with a chance of...

    Golden Cuckoo Marans cross conundrum

    A few weeks ago I hatched out some F2 Olive Eggers and some Golden Cuckoo Marans eggs that could have either been fertilized by my Barnevelder that I used to have, my Welsummer or potentially my young Swedish Flower Hen rooster. Most of those were hatched for other people but I kept one that I...

    Partridge Silkie X Blue Silkie CROSS ?

    I have a bunch of splash and blue silkies. Want to get a nice partridge male and cross over blue hens. Should I just keep saving the best blue female offspring that look like they carry the Pg gene, and cross back over dad to try and get 2 copies in the offspring? Then I'd have a partridge...

    Black Copper Marans Cornish Cross

    Does anyone have any Black Copper Marans X Cornish hybrids? If so do they retain the somewhat dark egg colour of the Marans or does it look like a standard grocery store brown egg? Does breeding a Cornish rooster to Marans hens yield sex linked birds? I'm looking to have meet birds who have eggs...

    what gender is this 6 month old cross between americauna and bantam brahma?

    Both of the parents indeed have pea comb type if i am incorrect, sorry.. Fairly certain the comb would be brighter&more vibrant in color, months before now, if it were indeed a rooster? Plus, it has a half sibling born same week that is a full blown roo right now! crowing and breeding. LOL

    Should I help my scissor / cross beak preen ?

    I’m not sure if I’m posting in right place. I noticed my little Silkie still has a lot of pin feathers with that white covering still partially on them. She has an extremely crooked beak , so she can’t preen herself. Her sister doesn’t have any feathers still like this. Their 8months old. I...

    Wheaten Ameraucana X Heritage Barred Rock CROSS

    Back Story: So 6 years ago I bought some large fowl wheaten ameraucanas chicks from neighbors, they purchased their stock from John Blehm. I also bought some heritage large fowl barred rocks that fall, I believe from Kraig Shafer at the Ohio Nationals. While all were pinned together I had...

    CRELE x BARRED Cross Mating = ??

    Hypothetical Question: I have Single Barred & Double Barred Males, as well as Barred Females. Crossed over Crele Males & Crele Females. Can I cross them, then back cross to improve the barring on the Creles? If so, what is the best cross to accomplish this? Genetics explained with genes as...

    Gold/Silver lace Sebright X

    I have 2 gold lace Sebright hens and a Silver lace rooster. I'm wondering what potential colors the offspring could be if I hatched. Does anyone have pictures of offspring from this cross?

    Are cornish cross chickens usually vaccinated since they're meat chickens?

    Are cornish cross chickens usually vaccinated for mareks, etc... and what about tractor supply? Do they vaccinate theirs?

    CC (Cornish Cross) as pet?

    I know this question has been asked before, but I was thinking about raising a cornish cross as a pet/laying hen. I know they get big really fast but I was wondering if I raised it on regular chick starter and eventually regular laying hen food, would it turn out just fine? I would definitely...

    RIR + EE & Dominique + EE mixes what will they look like?

    I'm incubating some eggs. My main Rooster is an Easter Egger and I have some EE hens, and a road island red hen and a Dominique hen, and I wanted to know what the mixes will look like as adults and if they will lay green eggs.

    Cochin, Brahma, or dorkings?

    Which, in your experience or opinion, yields more breast meat out of those? I have a red broiler i wanted to breed to my cornish cross but last night I was like maybe a heritage rooster would be better since they breed true. Plus, this red broiler doesn't have much breast meat. My cornish cross...
