SA standards Q

[MtnChookMama]

Hi there! We have 3 Silver Appleyards, 1 drake & 2 hens. The drake has beautiful coloring & we'd like to let the hens set eggs but one of them has a dark bill. Is it inadvisable to breed her? Here they are today at 20 weeks.

Beautiful.
I don't know the answer, but if you are on FB, there is a silver appleyard group that is dedicated to breed standards. They are very straight forward with their answers. I only joined to learn more about the breed, but it wasn't a group that I needed to belong to, so I don't remember the name. But, I know there weren't many SA groups to choose from.

Thanks, I'll take a look there.
