I hope I end up with more hens than roosters lol

I really like the blue ones. They do stand out more.

has anyone ever crossed a mottled Breda to a splash Breda iv always wondered what that would look like ?

I'm no geneticist but it seems like it would be a mottled bird with more white than black body feathering. Or else some chicks would look normal mottled while some would look splash. I was told by a breeder that with Breda you can't count on the genetic rules that work for other breeds. You get surprises with Breda.

I believe this boy was the granddaddy to my Blue girl and she was gorgeous, and funny, and sweet as could be!

Isn't she the prettiest thing?









She was such a sweet petite pullet and loved having her as a house pet during quarantine.

I have several dozen Mottled Breda eggs in the incubators getting ready to hatch in a week or so. If anyone is interested in reserving some, please PM me before I list them. Mareks vaccine included. I ship at 2 weeks old+ as Breda can be fragile early on. All will look like this cute little t-rex

I am pretty sure this is a male, little red wattles are showing
