he is the one out of the 3 with a true marans body type . plus very good bodt type and tail .impressed .
I said it before ,hatch down is not related to body type . this guy is a prove .
hatch down is related to body color .
he is the only keeper for now from line #1 .
chooks man
The other 2 from this line #1 both have vulture hocks then.
You predicted this early on.
So we will eat these two.
I now understand why we should hatch so many eggs from a pair. So few are chosen for breeding purposes.
I will say, im not naming chooks any more until after selections are made. Naming them early really sucks when you are making stew out of them...
So if i use Negan as a breeder, i need to look out for parasitic white because he was so light at hatch and vulture hocks because 2 of his brothers had them.
Is this correct?
These faults are very hard to breed out so cull hard?
