10 chicks out, and at least 1 pip under my broody! I'll quit looking under her now until she starts kicking out eggshells...

Henry, I read on a post where you were working or going to start working on splash faverolles. I'm too lazy to go back through over 250 threads to find it. Are you working on them? And if so, do you have any pictures you could post? Are you working on any other colors besides the salmon and blue salmon?

Henry is traveling so I will answer for him. Hopefully correctly.

He's working on lavender salmon bantams (and probably solid lav too).

When he can I will let him post what he picked up today.

Thanks Cindy! Yes I am working on lavender and lavender salmon faverolles bantams there are LF in the works as well. The project is in its infancy so it will be at least three years before we see lavs with good faverolles type. There are already splash faverolles in both LF and bantam. Today I met with Leisha and picked up some very nice birds and I am headed back to MD tomorrow. I got a beautiful trio of blue bantams for Cindy. A pair of black bantams and three beautiful splash pullets for myself along with one little dark salmon hen. I will try and post pictures when I get home these are some beauties!
