Hello everyone!!!
Okay, I have officially given up on keeping up with this thread, lol!!
Too much working is getting in the way of chatting with ya'll!!!
My eggs are hatching tonite!!! I have 6 out and 4 more pipped... 16 made it to lockdown.. I set a few Marans, one Ameracauna, the rest are EEs and OE's... some of the EE's that are hatching out of SBEL eggs (covered by Wheaten Amer roos) are looking lightly chickmunk striped. The ones hatching out of the RSL eggs (also covered by the Wheaten Amers) are hatching all yellow, interesting!! One little black copper Maran is out and another pipped, yay!! Will post pics tomorrow when they are fluffed out =)
Got DC numbers from PapaBrooder and Juststruttin (side swap) for eggs coming this week, woohoo!! It's going to be raining chicks around here!!

I'm totally stoked that my rural Internet connection was functioning correctly and I was able to claim one of the mystery chick sets from CPL!!!
The Adrenalin rush of hitting submit and then waiting for the page to reload was almost too much!
Yes, I know I'm a complete nerd.
No one else here is awake to share in my glee, not that they would understand at all. What a great way to end a MONDAY. Yes, today has been a MONDAY.

here is more detail kytin....
Black Sex-Links are produced using a Barred Rock as the mother. Both sexes hatch out black, but the males have a white dot on their heads. Pullets feather out black with some red in neck feathers. Males feather out with the Barred Rock pattern along with a few red feathers. Black Sex-Links are often referred to as Rock Reds.
Red Sex-Links are the result of various crosses. White Rocks with the silver factor (the dominant white gene would produce all white offspring) are crossed with a New Hampshire male to produce the Golden Comet. Silver Laced Wyandotte crossed with New Hampshire gives the Cinnamon Queen. Two other crosses are obtained with Rhode Island White x Rhode Island Red, and Delaware x Production Red. These two crosses are simply called Red Sex-Links. Males hatch out white and, depending on the cross, feather out to pure white or with some black feathering. Females hatch out buff or red also depending on cross, and they feather out in one of three ways.

Females hatch out buff or red also depending on cross, and they feather out in one of three ways.
- Buff with white or tinted undercolor (such as Golden Comet, Rhode Island Red x Rhode Island White)
- Red with White or tinted undercolor (Cinnamon Queen)
- Red with Red undercolor (Delaware x Production Red) (In this color pattern it is almost impossible to distinguish daughters' color from father's color.)
Thanks! That's very interesting.
