Look what I got! (My Babies are here plus more)

[JD]

Look what I got for free yesterday!

11 of the eggs are the Ring Neck Pheasants, 2 Mottled Cochin, 4 Doninecker Bantams but the only problem is I'm not sure what the SD and PR is. Can anyone help me on this?

Congrats. Maybe Partridge Rock and Silver Dorking?

That is really great.

I have looked everywhere for a silver dorking

. Maybe a silver duckwing? I did find that one on one of the hatchery sites. So maybe it is that one. These are all bantam but two are my own very first EE eggs. I sure hope most of these hatch. He gave no guarantees and all the dark green Ring neck pheasants, they were all out side, he said those might be up to two weeks old. So maybe.

Oh wow, stick those guys in the bator! Nice find!!

Yeah, he was a real nice man and had the nicest aviary with all types of chickens and game type birds. I originally went there to swap out a peahen and got these in return free along with my swap of these along with a white black tailed bantam pair.

Well I finally gone on lockdown tonight with only 6 of the white bantam eggs, 3 are Dom, 2 PR and 1 SD. All 11 ringnecks are looking good and will go into lockdown next week.

How exciting! Can't wait to hear how it goes!

Five of the babies hatched

and and one quit early. I now all bantams, 1 is a barred rock, 2 are pencil or partridge rock and one is definitely a silver duckwing. Just not sure about the last one grayish/brown with no pattern on it. My 11 ringneck pheasants went on lockdown Tuesday and hopefully I will see all on Friday! Here are my babies so far.
