Would someone please post a picture of the eggs for 'Imagesoart', I'm a work all day so can't. Thanks!

Here are a couple, one before hatch and one during. The darkest eggs are Faverolles (from pasofinofarm), the blue are Ameraucanas (from pasofino) and the smaller light ones are Silkies (from Bobbi Porto).

Holy cow Kathleen! Sure looks like 3 to 2!

These are the first babies I've seen from these parents this old though, I sure hope they aren't throwing girls that dark!!!

Do you still have the chick you kept? How does it compare with these in color?

I'm not upset about having three cockerels to two pullets -- they're straight run, after all. And I do plan to get some more babies this year, so who knows what I'll end up with!

I'm actually enjoying having them in my bedroom -- it's kind of nice to hear their little cheep-cheeping. I just have to stay on top of changing the bedding every single day!

I ended up selling her because there were only 2 chicks that age, and someone really wanted the BLRW that was with her, so I let her go too. She was feathered the same as the lighter one...

Henry, any news on your hatch?

Here are pics of what I have so far (the dark one is a Silkie):

I love this one's hairdo:

This one just hatched about 30 minutes ago:

One more Faverolles egg has pipped. Hopefully I will have more today. Wish me luck please!

I am getting the whole flock tested next weekend so I can show them. I am not sure wether or not I am going to show them but may as well have them tested anyway.

I just wanted to show a picture of a White Faverolles bantam hen that I used to have. I am getting my old birds back around April.

They were some of the tamest birds I've raised.

She is really beautiful David. If you have eggs when you get your new birds back let me know I defently want some of the bantam whites and LF whites they are beautiful.​

Oooh! Pretty bird! I hope one of my chicks is a white one.​

I wouldn't mind one little bit having a few of those whites, myself. We'll see!
