Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

[flitter]

Lavender with spangles... cool!
My DH was in SE Asia for a while and the yolks of chicken eggs were white... from eating rice?
Food colors might be easier and quicker than fooling around with genetics!

I would love to have some brabanters and some spitzhaubens, but I am having a terrible time trying to find any. Can any of you point me in the direction of a source somewhere near northern NJ or willing to ship to there?

There is someone in NY State selling Cream Brabanter hatching eggs here on BYC. You might start there!

I'm in the middle of hatching a clutch from Marquisella who I believe is still selling eggs in the hatching eggs for sale section. She may have a few week long waiting list but they're beautiful!

There is an Appenzeller Spitzhauben Club of America group on Facebook..best place to ask.

Hello all, I am sad beyond sad to report that all of my Brabanter eggs died in the power outage of the snow storm. I did everything I could, but 4 days without power is a very helpless place to be. Of 36 viable eggs going into lockdown, I got 16 live chicks, none of them Brabanter. Devastated doesn't begin to describe it. I am hoping to replace them by being able to trade for them. I have to offer a "barnyard mix with a twist". I have a Frizzled naked neck roo and a Huastec (black meat, bones, and skin) roo running with Araucana, Jersey Giant, Black Quechua Olmec, Sweet Potato Quechua and Dominique hens. When I hatch my own eggs, I generally get 1/3 frizzle naked neck babies, 1/3 black skin (as in REAL black, the blackest you've ever seen) babies, some with beard and crests, and 1/3 plain chipmunk or plain Jersey Giant-looking chicks. I have only had NOT 100% fertility one time, so my fertility is REALLY good. I've never sold or traded eggs, but I am hopig that someone thinks my wacky bunch is interesting enough to trade for a small amount of Brabanter eggs. Please let me know - I'd REALLY appreciate it. I don't need many eggs and I'll give you whatever numbers you want.
