What is this bird?

 

[centrarchid]

Did you hatch any mini's this year?

No. First two are products of a couple experiments looking at inheritance of a particular color pattern that I think is a double recessive for the pumpkin looking birds. They come about by first crossing two lines then inbreeding the product. Each round of inbreeding is getting closer to pumpkin when selecting lighter and solid colored parents. The white pullet is a toppy bird I will be using over next couple years for teaching display as the weird looking stuff seems better at attracting attention.

Breeding for looks, busted.

Cold rain with lots of wind. Yard work stopped. Birds all stacked up in barn.

Was 14 degrees this morning. Broke ice out of 52 cups, 5 bowls and 1 waterer. Broke the damn waterer too. Filled with fresh water because I’m not lazy.

You want one cookie or two?

From my project pens:

Out of a silver Dom cock and gold hen. First one to pop up with these color patterns. All pullets in this hatch are solid.
