Mutt Chickens and Combining Breed Names

[MuscovyMad]

I've bred pekin game bantams (OEGB roo x pekin hen). They're some mean and determined broodies!

They've got light foot feathering, soft feathers, a slender body shape amazing flying ability and a lovely nature when their not hormonal. They're great free ranging farm chickens.

My Delawegger. Mom was an EE and dad a Delaware. I am still not positive if it is a boy or girl at 14 weeks.

A few weeks younger

Pretty birds! If anyone crosses an orpington with an australorp it can be called an Orpalorp. I finally thought of one haha.

I've had a few delaweggers, and I'm gonna say your bird there is a roo. He looks just like our Eddie, who recently charmed a visitor here on the ranch who was NOT shopping for roosters but fell in love with him and made me an offer for him that I couldn't refuse. Eddie has gone on to live on another mountain ranch and now has a flock of his own ladies, and when he left here, he weighed just shy of 12 pounds and was 8 months old.

He was pretty much the size of everyone else in the flock, and we also thought he was a pullet for a while. You see your bird's tail feathers, though? Those two top feathers that are longer than the rest? That's your tell-tale sign.

I have a black orp x dark cornish that I'm thinking of calling either an Orpish or a Cornington. Just for grins of course lol it's still a Mutt.
