Okay, so I threw a few eggs in the incubator that were from various hens/roosters that roam free opposed to isolated for breeding. Most of my birds are rare breeds.
So here is the game:
I just hatched (or the chick and God hatched) a little guy/gal out of a large medium brown egg. The chick is yellow (white) with pink AND black skin. What might it be?! No feathered legs, no tufts or beards. The legs are yellow. The beak is yellow. The down is consistent yellow. There is black skin on the wings and a spot on the head. (Possibly elsewhere.)
*tries to think of what birds roam loose that lay a large medium brown egg*
Hen possibilities:
I have an Australorp and two Silver laced Wyandottes, and argh, I can't even think of what I have. *draws complete blank* All I can think of are the hens that *don't* lay a large medium brown egg.
Roos:
White Ameraucana (bearded and tufted)
Rumpless blue Araucana
Blue Sumatra
Silver Phoenix
Black Tailed White Japanese
Golden Lakenvelder
Barred Rock
(I'll look in the coop in the morning and see which hens/roos I've forgotten.)
Let the games (guessing) begin!
