Faverolles Thread

[Pele]

Yay! I just candled my babies that I set about 9 days ago. I can't see well inside all of them, but most look good. I even had two embryos beebop around when the light was on them, as if to say "Hey! Turn that light out!".

so happy!

If you look on the backside of the wing and see some growth of a feather, it is called a weak wing. Sometimes it takes some longer to grow this feather in. But if you see nothing, it is a split wing, It is hereditary. Do not breed from him.

Don't count out the one you think has split wing just yet. They are still young. This guy had what looked like split wing on one side when he was about the same age as your boys. He does not, it disappeared when he molted into adult plumage.

Well, I'll post his picture once I figure out how!

Beautiful rooster!!!!!!
