What is everybody going to focus on next year ?

I want all these but may only get two or three.

Brazilians
O-Shamo
Thai
Asils
Miner Blue American Games
Spangled Butcher American Games
Spangled Radio American Games

Just want to improve the lines I already ahve going...

Hatch mixes (Fabio line) going for blue legs
White mixes (White American hens under my new Modern X American cross)
Black mixes
Greys (Hopefully get a grey cock by spring)

And as always I keep a mixed breed pen with random color combinations.
I also ahve a pen with mixed Spanish/American game that look very Old English game (more compact with dense muscle). But I dont know if I want to breed these.

How long is a hen fertile when you take the rooster away or want to change rooster. About how many days?

I've heard up to 10.. but I am guessing that is pushing it

For flushing I'd go 3 weeks for fertility I'd say 10-12 days

So centra let's say I cross a sweater over a N. Roundhead. What should the stags look like? A cross or will one color be recessive or dominate over the other. I want them to look like a cross if they won't then no point in the cross

I know you didnt ask me haha, but from my experience (Hatch over warhorse) I get 2 options... some looked full black (usually pullets with a little orange in hackle), some looked like crosses..... I got golden hens from that cross, and dark orange cocks with dark tufts.

I might have got full hatch color as well, but if I did I might have misidentified who the mama was, thinking it had a hatch mom.

Centra would be better at identifying genes involved, I just go from observations.

haha... not to be too critical, but it has to have 2 white toenails on the left foot and at least one eye needs to be purple.
