I think so, but not a recognised colour pattern. She produces sex linked babies when bred with other birds from her line! All males look like her, all females are a soft brown.

I had one that looked a lot like her from an SDW daddy, and the mom was really light creamy yellow-ish color breast, a little darker brownish on her back. I never hatched chicks from her. Seems like Miss Lydia has a hen from mine that looks similar too.

I wonder what genetics are involved? I need to start reading up on that topic.

@Smuvers Farm how are the other 2 eggs doing?

Hate to say it, and hope I'm wrong, but Suzi may need a more "manly" name eventually.

Nooooo!!!!! I only want one rooster!

Why do you think she's male? Comb? When did you say you could tell with these guys?

What about Pippins?

 

[pitbullmomma]

Haven't you ever heard of the boy named Sue?

Yes but I don't want one!

And Cream and 1 of her 3. I assisted this one yesterday evening. The other 2 are under momma, but I loved this pic.

Luna's jealously guarding her 3 peeps. The weather here is crappy, so I'm trying to not mess with them as much as possible. But I promise, when it gets nice, I am definitely going to post some pics.

Yours are so cute! Sara's look like 3 of mine. Do you have any pics of what those color babies look like when they grow up?

Yeah, how's Mr.Nibbles and the other derp? It's weird the light egg hatched first, it hatched last here last year and the darker eggs hatched almost simultaneously. Glad to see 7's toes look good too, those big feet hatch out gnarly sometimes.

@Smuvers Farm how are the other 2 eggs doing?
