Grats wisher1000 and draye! Grats Penneyhen, hopefully next time you can have 100% hatch rate and will have so many little fuzzbutts you won't know what to do with them all.

Well, my one little lonely egg baby didn't make it.

It was sure going to be pretty, pure white. Tetra Tint. Very interesting. Would really like getting some of these. Haven't seen them until now.

So sorry! What breed was the chick? I should know but I can't remember.

Thank you.....ron, it was a Tetra Tint. I had not seen this before. I guess a cross of a leghorn and a sex link..look them up, they are quite pretty. I love the tint of red on the neck or body, or wings. It seems you never know where the tint will be until they are older. I think they are pretty. Would love some. I think there is actually a thread here. Going to go look. I googled it and found them.

Here is a pretty one..

Someone says on the thread, mutts are good. lol..guess that's pretty much what they are. One of the interesting thing is, they usually lay a brown egg..I think usually..my egg was brown.

Mt. Healthy Hatcher sells them. The first hatch is mid February.

You might need someone to share the order with you though.

Your Welcome!

They look like very nice chickens. A 5 pound hen is large for a hatchery breed too.
