I hatched some OEGB chicks from Soggy Bottom Farm this week. I think Soggy is on vacation or something. I haven't seen them online. So, I'll ask you all my questions.

I hatched several Spangled chicks. Is this lighter colored one a Spangled, also or something else?

In this pic you can see two white and brown "chipmunk" chicks. Are these both Fawn Silver chicks? I'm pretty sure they are. Just want to be sure.

Breeding Question.....

Can I use any other color (other than BB Red) hen with my BB Red roo, and get an accepted color offspring?

Reason I'm asking... I have my OEGB in pairs, and in one of my pairs, the hen is getting over-mated. I need to put some more girls in there to give her some relief. I tried separating the two, but the hen was unhappy, and kept trying to escape and run back, and the roo was unhappy... so I put them back together again. I had a heckuva time finding a good BB Red hen last time I searched, and I was hoping if there were other colors that would work, I might have better luck searching with a few more options.

So,.. any ideas?

i would get another hen that is a complete different color... that way when the chicks hatch, you know what is what... get him like a white hen or something... or something with feathered feet..?

edit: it will be easier that way than just getting another accepted color... or you can get a blue BBRED hen, or even splash...

Looking for an Old English Game Bantam Rooster, Spangled variety for my son. We live near Canton, Ohio and I am willing to drive a bit for one. Please PM me if you have one that you are looking to sell or rehome. Thank you very much.
