Cream Legbar Hybrid Thread

[nadrojsack]

So another question with my cl x goldlines, ive got a very dark chick with dark eye lids and legs where has this come from? Any idea how it will end up looking?

 

[KendyF]

This is a cross between a cream legbar hen and a white sizzle rooster. I was told earlier that both these chicks are pullets.
this is what she looks like now


Here is my second chick from this cross as both a day old and how she looks now at 7 weeks


Aren't they both so cute? Especially the second one? She has the prettiest frizzled feathers and has such intricate black and white markings on them

Omg, I love them. Would love to see a picture of the Rooster.

There is a rule in breeding that you always list the female parent first! In this case the hen. The reason for this is to standardize the literature and eliminate confusion. There is no need to say which is the hen or rooster because it is understood. This can eliminate confusion in instances where there are differences between the results of the cross due to the parental order such as sexlinked traits. I have been researching autosexed breeds, sexlinks and crosses with the same. While trying to follow the threads I have run into many instances where people talk about their crosses and share pictures alternating the order of the parents til you aren't sure which way the cross was done or how to intemperate the results.
Another reason for this rule is that it is easier to be sure of the female parent than the male, where there can sometimes be a surprise.
Please share this rule with others as it will help simplify discussions and eliminate confusion. A benefit may be to make make results more searchable. Ie what happens when I cross a Cream Legbar x blue Ameraucana vs Blue Ameraucana x Cream Legbar

Standardization would make it much easier to instantly know what was done. Problem is people not knowing what the "correct" way is. I have always heard people say "CL over BA" using the breeds you mentioned. I am all for us to try and do it one way. Good info. Kern

You are right but the more people who know and do it correctly the more people will learn to do it properly. The 'over' terminology is a different convention, meant more for verbal communications. However it could only add to the confusion. People will need to realize it means something different than CL x BA,... It would actually mean BA x CL, In speaking I would say "crossed with" or "times" confusing isn't it. Like we are speaking in a different language. Similar to why science and the church use Latin, so everyone knows what is actually being discussed. Imagine the confusion if common names or terminology were used in scientific literature. We would still be in the dark ages.

There is a problem with putting the hen first. When you put the hen like ( blue Ameraucana ) x (Cream Legbars) as rooster. The problem is x means out of and since a rooster does not lay eggs then a chick can not be out of (x) the rooster.

I always put rooster first then the hen after the x.

Some Juvi pictures.

Two of my hybrid chicks. CCL Momma and Lavendar Ameruacana Dad.
Neat to see a crest and muff/beard on both but I was rather surprised to have the both pure white.
Is this to be expected? or is it an anomaly?
Not sure if I like it or not.....

 

[RumAndCoconuts]

And CCL mum, Bielfelder Dad
Very much a cross of the two breeds. Like a CCL but a more salmon Breast and more meaty.
I have pullets as well but they were lying in the shade and the photos didn't turn out. They look quite different. Will try to get another set of photos later.

I wonder if this is how my yellow chicks goldline x cl dad will turn out...

Still perplexed by my dark chick, where did it come from and what will it turn out to be like?
