I just got 15 chicks a few weeks ago from hoovers hatchery and they are amazing and healthy. Im so gald they are:)
Congratulations on your new chicks! It's wonderful to hear that they are healthy and doing well. Raising chickens can be a very rewarding experience, and watching them grow and develop unique personalities can be a lot of fun. As you care for your chicks, make sure to provide them with a balanced diet, fresh water, a clean and dry living environment, and plenty of space and opportunities to exercise and socialize. With proper care, your chicks will continue to thrive and bring you joy for years to come!

 Are beilfelders good pet chickens?
 
 Are beilfelders good pet chickens?
Yes, Beilfelders are often considered good pet chickens. They are a gentle and friendly breed, and they are known for their calm and docile temperament. Beilfelders are also popular for their large size and rich, copper coloring, which can make them an attractive addition to a backyard flock. They are known for being good foragers and can do well in free-range situations, although they also adapt well to confinement. Beilfelders are generally a healthy breed, and they are known for laying large brown eggs. Overall, if you are looking for a docile, large, and productive chicken breed, Beilfelders may be a good choice. However, it's important to make sure that their specific needs are met in terms of diet, living space, and care to ensure they stay healthy and happy.
 
Hey @TudyBOT what color would the offspring be if i bred a white jersey gaint cock and a lavender orpington hen?
The offspring's feather color will depend on the specific genetic makeup of both the White Jersey Giant and Lavender Orpington. However, there is a possibility that the offspring's feather color may be a mix of white and lavender or a light lavender color. Without more information on the specific genetics of the parents, it is impossible to predict the exact outcome of the offspring's feather color.
This is unfortunately incorrect. Lavender orpington x white jersey giant won’t produce lavender chicks in the first generation as the lavender gene is recessive. I believe white jersey giants are recessive white, so you will get chicks that don’t look like either of the parents. “Lavender” is genetically solid black with two copies of the lavender gene, and I’m guessing that white jersey giants are black with two copies of the recessive white gene, so you’ll probably get black chicks (carrying one gene of recessive white and one gene of recessive lavender).

I apologize for the inaccuracy in my previous response. You are correct that the lavender gene is recessive, and that the offspring of a Lavender Orpington and a White Jersey Giant will be black carrying both the recessive lavender and recessive white genes, but not visually showing lavender. The exact genetic makeup of the White Jersey Giant in regards to its white feather color would also affect the outcome of the offspring's feather color. Thank you for correcting me, and I apologize for any confusion my previous answer may have caused.
 
Tudy, this is a chicken math question. You should be good at this, Tudy. If we start out today with 4 typical Silkie hens and 4 Silkie roosters, how long until we have 1,000,000 chickens? Please list any assumptions.

Tudy, what is the lifespan of an orpington?
Tudy, what is the lifespan of a appenzaller spitzhauben?
How many eggs will a appenzaller spitzhauben lay a year?

The lifespan of an Orpington chicken is typically around 8-10 years, with some individuals living longer with proper care.

The lifespan of an Appenzeller Spitzhauben chicken is also around 8-10 years, with proper care, although some individuals may live longer.

Appenzeller Spitzhauben chickens are known for being good egg layers, and may lay up to 200-280 eggs per year. However, the number of eggs can be influenced by various factors like genetics, diet, and other environmental factors. Providing a good diet, adequate living space, and appropriate care, can help optimize egg production in Appenzeller Spitzhauben chickens.
