2 days ago my beautiful chicken Daisy was murdered by a dog.. she was the best chicken in the whole wide world a polish x silkie.. I was so proud of her entering her into comps on here and showing her off to all my family and friends at every opportunity, she acted more like a cat than a chicken, wanting a fuss and to be picked up at every opportunity... But now she has gone
While my partner cleared away the carnage, he found daisy had layed an egg, this must have been during the attack (100% daisy's egg as she is the only chicken who lays a polish looking egg who is not pened in her own coop).. so we have kept the egg and planned on putting in the incubator with some polish eggs we have been collecting.. (we are sure the polish cockeral had her when he escaped from his pen) Fingers crossed it is fertile
The cockeral
What colour chick would we expect to get from daisy and the cockeral.. daisy had patches of gold lace in parts..
Many thanks for reading xxx
ETA:- And today a hybrid hen of mine has gone broody, the first one of the year....so I plan on putting the eggs under her when I am sure she is for sure not moving of her nest.. It must be a sign to incubate daisy's egg
