Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[RedBrush Farm]

Since I started following this forum I have become an addict. I want at least one trio of everything (with the exception of the non-chicken looking chickens that were posted on here last night). Just when I think I have made up my mind what I want to do, someone comes up with something I have not seen before. I need therapy -

Stupid question:

If you breed an Ameraucana with a Marans you end up with Olive Eggers (because the blue and the brown make that olive-y color).

If you mix red and blue paints, you'll end up with a muddy dark purple (using equal parts, I just did it in the kitchen). It's definitely not a "pretty purple" as the elementary color chart says it is...but it's a dirty purple shade nonetheless.

...if you bred a pink egglayer with a light blue egg layer would you end up with pastel purple egg layers?
What about if you breed OEs with blue egg layers or some Isbars with Ameraucanas, do you get Turquoise/Aquamarine egglayers?

for the record, I love different colored eggs (hence why I'm getting a bunch of different breeds) but I worry sometimes that our breeds will go bye bye with all this mixing for egg color. They all get cracked in the pan the same way.

You guys are funny. I think we all need therapy. At least I do.. this chicken addiction has gotten out of hand!

Taking a quick lunch break and now I'm back outside pushing to finish the run so the 9 week olds can go outside... cold weather is coming again and though they're acclimated, I'd like to get them out before it's really frigid. I still can't believe we have 9 week olds in the house.

I think it's the mobile version. I noticed it on my phone the other day.

Well my chicks from GFF were not supposed to be delivered until tomorrow, but the sort facility allowed me to pick them up from there since I work nearby. I won 10+ on the auction and she shipped 11, but one did not survive the trip. That's the first time I've ever had a casualty from shipping.
