I just wanted to share this silly pic. These are the two black girls I got from Donna and a lav pullet that got caught up in the garden fence. WTH is that lav doing? Trying to turn inside out?

looks spooky lol

Hi, I am new here on this forum although I have been following it a bit. I just wanted to share my birds with you all for feedback I have Pips'n Peeps, John Blem and Schaffer lines. I have pure blacks that I am anxiously awaiting their eggs from John Blehm. I am hoping to be to the point of splits by Spring! I am thrilled with the tight feathering on my blacks and hope that will improve my lavs. I do like the consistent coloring on my lavs. I think my young cockerel is looking promising. What do you all think?

 

[Goose and Fig]

I'd say you are off to a great start!

Thanks! Hey what do you all think about gold hackle feather leakage. Where genetically is that coming from and how do you remove it?

 

[Goose and Fig]

I can't see it? Is it old feathers or leakage? If they have leakage, it usually shows up in splotches on the wing triangles. It is normal for lav roos to get a bit of yellowing on the boy feathers that are old.

Here's some of my project birds- the black are what I got from Donna a short while back. I put a couple of these on the regular Am thread too.

I don't see in on the wing bows generally with mine, but in the hackle and saddles. You have gold based not silver based birds. When I made splits with my Blacks, some of the Black splits had gold leakage some, creamy silver. You can't tell with the female splits, and not every split male will have leakage, but males that are silver based (2 copies) will produce only silver based pullets as it is sex linked.

Hope that makes sense. Every bird is either gold or silver based under whatever other genetics you're dealing with.

Sun exposure tends to make my Lavs look like they've been dust bathing. It dulls the color, males and females.
