People like me make splits so I can create pure bred lavs. I only have 1 pure 100% lav silkie roo-In order for me to create a pure lav hen for my boy-I use black which helps with coloartion and other desirable traits. SO I mate my lav roo to 100% balck silkie hens--All resulting chicks will carry 50% lav gene. SOo I take the girl progeny's and mate back to daddy-those resulting chicks will produce 75% split and 25%- 100% pure lavs-Then once I get a few 100% pure lavs hatched out I will keep all girls born from that-and upgrade for a better Lav roo-he's a jerk! LOL....

I would in a seperate pen-I would keep blacks only if they had a trait or a quality that my lavs needed improving on-like top notches-toes spacing and stuff-I would have to do split again and work backwords again-alot of work and a lot of time-I like it and it excites me when I get 1 step further. By August I should have 5 splits old enough to mate back to dad to attempt and hatch out pure lav silkies. Thats if any of the 5 are females

oops sorry-yes thats why I have splits-or are creating them too-I wanted a breeding pair but did not have the kind of $ it takes to buy a gorgeous breeding pair-So I settled on 1 roo and hatched out black bearded silkie hens from breeders from BYC

Nat..I have a quick question...would it be possible that you post what we are all hatching on the first post of the thread...(starting this hatch go round) We are a chatty bunch and I can't remember my page numbers that I posted as to when I added certain eggs....haha If it is too much trouble...no biggie whatsoever...just thought I'd ask!

Just poppin' in. Not enough time to catch up on posts.

Both chicks made it out fine. The thing that was there "went in" if that makes sense. Not sure what it was. The chick is fine. Both are very pretty little buffs.

No pics though. We are back at Duke after a 3 hour ambulance ride from home yesterday. Daughter is pretty sick again. Please pray for her and us.

Son is on bator duty, the best he can. Lock down is Thursday. Hoping we get home by then. Not sure

Hubby is bring computer and clothes to me tonight. Will chat with y'all then. I miss the "release" i get with y'all ladies and really need it today.
