Wow! Amazing what the genes can produce! Very cute.. congrats!

I do too! That little grey is unique! I am amazed how these colors can come from red and cuckoo only crosses!

Please tell me you will keep this thread updated with their colours as they grow up!

 

[Rockashelle]

Yes... I'll be very interested to see the changes they go through.

I learned about Dorkings this past month and can't wait to get some. My ancester is Ceaser and I would love to get some that were true to the type he had, once upon a time. I wish I had some more room and would love to get in on this project. I love what you are doing and am very interested in seeing what the chicks will look like! I am new to the chicken world (not quite a year) and have fallen for chickens. So any pointers or tips would be awesome!

Welcome! The chicken bug is extremely adictive! My only pointer is that I have had to narrow down to two breeds I really love, as it is, I am out growing my two chicken coups!

Absolutely! I am considering putting wing tags so I can keep better records. Currently I use leg rings, but you either have to change them as they grow or wait until they are full grown, what do you all think?

i'm tagging all of mine mainly for record keeping.... that way I will know for certain who is from which bloodline and so on

I use color coded zip ties. They are cheap and easy to snip and replace. The 5th toe really helps keep them on when I leave grow out room.

Great idea!
