I am experimenting with breeding Rangers. I know that they won't breed true but the few I have hatched some and they are growing quickly and look like the parrents. My question is there a lowerhatch rate because they are hybrids? Out of 2 hatchings I have done the hatch rate was bad, butthe Jersey Giant rooster to the Rangers hatched beter.The picture is a ranger/ranger chick. Hatched at the same time as pure giants and it is twice as big as them.
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
