If I ever go South maybe I'll stop by. Usually I head North though when going long distances. Lol. I "love" seeing your roo and the hen n this pic up close is georgous.I took their pictures, please bare with me, my chickens are not trained to stand still while being photoed. Perhaps Countryboy can come by and do portraits for me?
They are well on their way to being decent Porcelains. A few more generations to get the pattern just right but I noticed that my Porcelains were easier than the original MF but I was working with a different breed. And they are girls.Great info on the patterning and genes. Very useful if your colour spread is slightly lacking in black. I posted pic's of these two chucks one lemon millefleur and one blue and wanted opinions on if people think on their sex and feathering. Do they look right? Also put a pic of my 16wk old millefleur cockeral its not athe best photo. How is his colouring? Thanks everyone!
I'm crossing my fingers for a pullet. If it's a roo it has a home though. I like her/ him. It looks like a boy a lot but the you look at it and its a pullet. Time will tell I guess.
He's a pretty cool looking dude. I don't know then. I have to come up with something different. I could try it and if they don't like the outcome then I can take them to the auction. But I don't want to waste my time either.Crossed Silkie and Cochin a few times and hated it. The only one I like is my silkied Frizzle bantam Cochin roo, PJ. It took years for me to get this to click. I kept getting smooth feathering.
Oh YEAH! You hit the mark on that one for sure. That is one cool looking Roo!PJ is a cutie, love the name tooSplash Silkie hen x MF Cochin roo:
