Its my splash girls that are laying with my blue Rooster. I forget what the chick color percentage will be... Any ideas?
I think ideally I want a splash Rooster...

Blue X Blue = 50% Blue, 25% Black, 25% Splash
Blue X Black = 50% Blue, 50% Black
Blue X Splash = 50% Blue, 50% Splash
Black X Black = 100% Black
Black X Splash = 100% Blue
Splash X Splash = 100% Splash * breeding this way will dilute your splashes, and they will fade more with each subsequent breeding.

Here, you might need this one too

Bowtie X Silkie = 50% Silkies, 50% Bowties
Bowtie X Bowtie = 25% Naked Necks, 50% Bowties, 25% Silkies
Bowtie X Naked Neck = 50% Bowties, 50% Naked Necks
Naked Neck X Silkie = 100% Bowties
Naked Neck X Naked Neck = 100% Naked Necks * with each generation you wil increase the "nakedness".

Note: Silkies produced from these matings will not carry the Show Girl gene. They will be 100% silkies and when bred to another silkie will only produce silkies.

Does anyone down there have SLP?
One of my 4-Hers lost her Mottled Houdan to a hawk this weekend. She has had the worst luck ordering them. Wondering if someone might have a pullet about March when travel is better. I was going to order eggs from Horstman but sounds like a long shot getting them in good condition.

I was going to say splash WTO splash get lighter and lighter many don't recommend it.

Chocolate Banana!

Slice a banana into the bottom of a baked pie shell and them fill it with chocolate pie filling:




This recipe makes enough for one pie.

Cheers!

That is Silver Laced Polish?

Sorry, I get mixed up on the abbreviations sometimes.

Somebody around here has Polish!(Debs_Flock, Molly, Jeff, Cheryl?)
