Sounds good.

What breed are you planning next, or more Wyandotte mixes?

Planning on getting a couple colors of cochins, a couple more silkies and more dark brahmas. So i’m just adding a couple of numbers to my different breeds.

I’m sorry I didn’t keep up on it! Hopefully I can on my next batch. Until then!

What’s breeds are A and G?

Planning on getting a couple colors of cochins, a couple more silkies and more dark brahmas. So i’m just adding a couple of numbers to my different breeds.

So, a mix of different breeds? I like the idea of dark Brahmas, & Silkies.

What’s breeds are A and G?

A is a mix between an EE, a welsummer, and possibly a brown leghorn. It was a project breed the guy I got the eggs from was working on. B is also of that mix, but she developed ear muffs and a beard. I’m hoping she will lay speckled olive eggs.

G is a (believe it or not) blue laced red wyandotte. I don’t know why she looks like that. I made a thread awhile ago on it.
G’s Coloring?
Here’s that thread.

 

[Iluveggers]

Thank you for the update! A few surprises but lots of correct guesses! Hopefully you’ll do this the next time around too!

I think this thread is an excellent example of how young chicks from pure breeds or nonspecific crosses can only be guessed at 50% accuracy when attempting to wing sex when freshly hatched Interesting project but I will certainly continue to wait until birds develop secondary sex characteristics at a few weeks old

Oh! Me too! I just really love the threads that show them as babies and then what they turn into. Just wanted to throw in alittle game in between.

 

[FeatherTay]

Be ready for some updated pictures of these guys! They are now around 6 months!

 

[FeatherTay]

Here is B.
Her name is Coconut and she is an EE. Hoping she lays a blue or green! She looks like she will be laying soon! I love how smooth her feathers are and that she has a beard and muffs! She’s the friendliest of the batch!

 

[FeatherTay]

This is either C, D, E, or F.
His name is AppleJack. I love his body type and he has very nice feathering. The only BLRW I kept that was male. He started crowing 11-23-21.
