To my surprise, my black and white Call hen has hatched out 7 babies. The only drake she has is a large Lavender Runner....I did NOT think that was possible. The Runner has his own Runner hens and they keep separate from the Call hens, at least I thought they did. I guess hormones know no boundaries.
 
The other day I saw 3 runner drakes all on top of one Embden goose and "mating". Everyone was very happy even the goose, now she is broody.
 
Thank you! today I noticed that the babies stand up almost like little Runners when they're startled. I'm wondering if they'll be colored like a Swedish Blue when they feather out.
