yea I have been swamped at school! that's why I haven't been on here... I need to start hangin out more on here!!!!

Guys can I ask, can you keep them in a normal chicken run, or will their tails get covered in crap

 

[tandersphoenix]

Hi, the most important thing I have found is to keep their coop dry and clean. If they are allowed to free range their tail will get muddy, brittle and break. Same if you have an outside run where the tail could get muddy, wet, sun bleached, etc.

my trio imported german line hens and a stag out of sirbirdoholic.
all have correct walnut comb and yellow legs.

so I have had 2 hatches from my home-bred breedings... silkieXNN, sumatraXyokohama, and pure yokohama...the crosses had a high hatch rate but the yokohamas failed to hatch period! I broke a few open and they were fully developed... what am I doing wrong? im going to try to make a game hen go broody to see if that's the issue?

 

[chickletteSarge]

the 2 sets of yokieXsumatra that were able to hatch... from what I have read the yokohama puts the blue into the genes.... possibly sexlinked. 2 platinum lookin chicks in each batch and one dark grey

Would anyone take pity on a storm ravaged okie and sell me some red shouldered yokohama eggs please?

As soon as they start laying again.....
