Can you sent a link to the Weird Toe Parade? I've never heard of it.If you don't mind, I'll put something up on the weird toe parade. One of my broodies hatched this guy a couple years back. What's especially interesting is that in this particular cross, the males have white skin and the females have dark skin.

Good idea. The weird toe parade thread.I meant this thread, since other members were posting their own pictures.
That’s because you made a sex link cross.If you don't mind, I'll put something up on the weird toe parade. One of my broodies hatched this guy a couple years back. What's especially interesting is that in this particular cross, the males have white skin and the females have dark skin.

Yep. That's why I hatched that cross. The bit that caught my interest was that the weird toe on the cockerel matched the pullet skin.That’s because you made a sex link cross.
If you cross cock with dark skin like a Silkie to hens with yellow legs then the resulting pullets will hatch with dark skin and legs and cockerels will have yellow skin and legs.
I had a Lavender Silkie pullet who has 6 toes on each foot. Sadly she passed away.
I have a Silkie x Easter Egger pullet who has 5 toes on 1 foot and 4 toes on the other foot.Yep. That's why I hatched that cross. The bit that caught my interest was that the weird toe on the cockerel matched the pullet skin.
Oh my! I hope you heal soon.I am sitting in the ER catching up on this thread. A Momma Broody with spurs tore my hand up this morning. I reached in to dump the baby food and in under a second, she got me. It felt like I was being shot with huge steel ball bearings from a machine gun. She spurred me over a dozen times in under 1 second, cracked the largest bone in my index finger and broke middle finger.
That little B!+€h!
Thanks!Oh my! I hope you heal soon.
