Acceptable Silkie and Aracauna Hatch Rates

I'm not sure on what his birds actually are like since they are on the research facility at U of A and strict bio-security rules are practiced. No live birds are allowed in or out of the facility.

I do know that the other breeds that he raises have had good success in the show ring. He has several breeds that he has been working with for several generations and a couple that he freely admits are very much a work in progress.

His program is a wonderful asset to the 4-H and FFA kids here in the AR/OK area.

I think it is great that he supports the kids this way. Plus introduces them to breeds they might not get a chance to know otherwise.

Here are some pictures of the BBR Araucana. The other chicks are Sumatras, Sicilian Buttercup bantams and some experimental blue chickens that lay blue eggs.

Very cute. Very curious also.
