I forgot to include a photo of the hen most of these chicks came from. I still have my split rooster and he has a black hen and 2 black pullets with him now.
Here is Truffles, she died late this summer.
Here are some hens I just got that I may use with my split chocolate rooster, they are still in quarantine and had been with a Cocopop rooster. Two of them laid eggs today and I've set them this evening.
Betty Boop, not chocolate and not really the best black color to get solid chocolate but I love her type and even with some patterning, I think she would make some nice chocolate chicks.
This is Candi. I'm going to breed her to a black rooster (I have a couple bought but not here yet and they're still young) Not sure about her color but I like it. Came from the same flock as Truffles. She's still young and hasn't begun to lay yet.
And this lil hen is Gigi. Gingered something. I haven't decided who to breed her to yet but chocolate giner is a really pretty color so she may be bred to a chocolate later on. I have a blue wheaten rooster she will live with first.
