i'm not familiar on how buff works... the calculators have buffs as fawn/dun buff columbian clear necked chicken... LOL... it makes sense to me...


but since buff/dun is involved... you will get 100% barred, but 50% black 50% fawn/dun...

so keep a bared fawn/dun roo and breed it back to the hen...


LOL... but you'll get all kinds of random birds... but i really don't know how it would work... buff breeding confuses me...

 

[bobbyc1970]

I sure do appreciate it. i will def go get some tomorrow. So hoping the best for you saturday.

It's was 105 last weekend and kill them off . I will hide and think it over if I can get more eggs or something to start out again

but dont know if I can take one more dying on me .

So sorry. I've been keeping my new and older chicks inside till it gets alot cooler. it hit 116 here.

I have been working like crazy to keep my older birds cooler. they get lots of ice and frozen water bottles in their waterers. and fans too. been lucky so far.
Got me wanting to build a enclosed area with heat and air.
