Buff Orpington crossed with a crested cream legbar

[Kzdnae]

I’m super interested in the outcome of this cross. Any pics to share?

yeah, I do, Ill post them tomorrow if i remember - cant right now.
this combo was the most surprising out of all my mixes with cream leg bar rooster.
all 3 ended up being roosters, and two are completely albino and one is very Buff Orpington looking. I know my roo carriers at least one albino gene, but I guess I thought it would only be activated if the hen also had one albino gene. Im not sure why i thought that.

Are the chicks sex-linked? What egg colour do they lay? did anyone find out

Did we ever get to see the egg colour and the Fully grown hen?

My BO/cream leg bar hen lays blue eggs and pretty much just looks like a buff orpington

Ahh nice. Could I see a pic?
I've just hatched some literally about 3 hours ago, but it looks like a creamlegbar chick with the chipmunk markings....?? Deffo come out of a BO eggs and has been fertilised by my creamlegbar cockerel

Sure I will take one today. I have found (in my limited 3 yrs experience) that boys look like their mamas and girls like their dads.

I had a pure BO 2 yrs ago, she had a CLB too over her, and egg hatched into a CLB/BO roo. His name is Rusty (looks just like a BO). Then mama BO got taken by coyote.
Rusty then was with my CLB hen, and this little hen was born. Her name is Queenie. She was all yellow when born, not much chipmunk at all.

I'll post a pic of the chicks later. Theres a couple of BO cross legbars hatched now.

This is Queenie. Derived from BO and CLB, with possibly half EE in one of her parents.
She lays blue eggs, still medium sized since she is just 1 yr... but probably 6 a week. She is not gorgeous, but she is one of my best layers.

She's gorgeous. I'll be happy if mine turn out like that. This is one of the hatchings, I'm sure thats the CLB x BO the rest are pure CLB and Pure Leghorns. Thoughts??
