Call Ducks or Bantams...Crazy Animals Around the Farm

That should be fine.

It's not the diet it's the poor broodstock. If it was the diet I could have fixed it a long time ago. This will be a long, difficult journey, especially since diseases often stunt growth, setting me back with useless birds a quarter of the desired size, but with none of the fine muscular structure of both the standard and bantam Buckeyes. See? See what happens when you get poor birds from someone who breeds dozens of breeds from different sources? An undergrown 4 month old man-chick.

Grrr. All that work, wasted; by all definitions.

There’s some Buckeye breeders in MN that have some decent SQ stock.

Go to the Leg Color link. It explains it better than I can. Nicalandia gave me this link firsthand a long time ago, unknowing of the great power it handed me, as it was what taught me how to be a leg color expert.
Leg color is the only thing I can be certain about when discussing. (Firsthand experience helps)

So are you agreeing or disagreeing with me?

I just realized it doesn't matter. I'm acting strange and going genetics crazy again. I must sleep.

You must post updated pictures of your Speckled Sussex x Easter Egger mix chicks.

I’ll get some in the next day or two, the poor things are going through the uglies right now (3weeks old)

Which one?

Missy. Not sure if you remember which one that is or not.
