I just hatched out my first batch of chicks from a mixed flock of "a little of everything" hens and FBC Marans roo. This is my favorite chick - naked neck, feathered legs. I hope she is colored like the FBCM. :) And I hope she is a she :)

What crosses have been successes in your eyes? Which ones were like "Oh dear. The chick only a mother could love." Of course, are there really ANY ugly chicks? I must admit, I watched the Turkarans hatch and when she first came out, wet and pink and nakedish, I was like "Oh dear. It's deformed" then I was like "Awwwww....a tiny naked neck!!..I hope she dries off soon..."

I'm pretty excited about the Americauana x Marans too.

She is frighten adorable. Reminds me of a Jim Henson character!
So, what color eggs would an Americauana x Marans cross make?
