Henk: hoe gaat het met u....sorry my nederlandse is a little rusty...please keep up the posts...everytime I read one of yours I am forced to relook at your website....and I try to read it without the translation option...its unbelievable and so packed with knowledge that it must be read and re read... I wished you lived down the road from me...btw exceptional birds...

Botany Classes!
Mendels law, what a pain-- but very helpful!
But so far, haven't really gotten into it with the chickens as much as I do the garden!!!
(Getting a Hot-sweet orange pepper that is JUST right!)

Het gaat wel, I am fine, thank you.

Yes, my website is a "winzipped" kind of information, like a beef jerky of genetics. I just want to point the readers to an aspect/little fact so they can google them up or ask me about it.
Pitty my english is often leaning towards dunglish (dutch english, we call it charcoal english

) and I have been tainted by reading a lot of scientific papers.

I put a lot of effort in it (neglecting my chickens to a point) but I am glad that it helps some of you. Thanks Mountaintopchicken!

What a great pages you have! Beautiful birds!!!!

Also, what a sweet farm you have... how do you ever leave?

We are trying to create a mini cottage farm in the middle of the city with gardens and chickens etc... what a lot of work!

I like the thought that it is stable and concrete if you know how to do it and understand the LINGO. My foregn languages are religated to research & translation of dead (mostly) languages. But I only (other than English) only know semitic & protosimittic languages. Not much about chickens in hebrew, aramaic, egyptian hyrogliphics or accadian.

I am agreement. Just looking at henk 69 pages is learning in and of itself.

It seems like everyone somehow gets to henks calculator. Thanks henk!!!! What great work!

So, botany & genetics... when I left Grad School I thought I was never going back! I do miss learning. What a treat. THanks everyone for all the information... keep it coming. This could be a great resource for anyone wanting to learn about chicken genetics.

So, does everyone agree that Hutt's book is good???

Thanks again everyone!

Henk... how long did it take you to put together the calculators????

 

[Henk69]

I started End of Januari 2008, already had some chickenpictures made.
A first version of the chickencalculator was finished in 2 weeks. Now there are 40+ species calculators. And I finished a trial version for inbreeding calculations last week.

Oh dear... now I need to put the Netherlands on my "must see" list of travel places. The first photo of the house and field pulled me in... absolutely gorgeous.
