Just went out and checked all my SG pullets/hens so I could be sure of accurate information. One of the blue pullets is actually a black, and her middle toe feathers are fairly full. The blue pullets both have good middle toe feathers; the splash hens have quite good middle toe feathers; the two black hens have almost no middle toe feathers; and the partridge hen has excellent middle toe feathers--very full and fluffy. the silver white has fair feathering on her middle toes. The black pullet with the fairly good toe feathering is the daughter of the black/lav split showgirl I got from Bren a year ago and one of two of my own lav splits. The 11 day old babe has feathering on both its middle toes, but is way too young to determine gender.

Beautiful BetsyOK! Thanks for the info! My lav SG roo is from Bren and I am on her waitlist for hens if she has any left after OK! My roo has excelent foot feathering as do the split mutt chicks that have hatched so far. I am so bummed about their mother not being a pure lav.

On a brighter note I am getting a lav hen tomorrow who was originally bred by Bren who is stunning! I have to decide if she will go with my silkie lav roo or the SG lav roo. I put the splash split lav wo we THOUGHT was a lav in my BBS pen for now.
 
Hello again fellow Showgirl peps,
Just to update I sat 9 SG eggs in the bator on Nov. 8th. So far I've only had one quitter. It seemed to have stopped developing at about the first week. Tomorrow at 5 pm is lockdown and still have 8 eggs. All of the 8 look full and very lively, I even saw some tiny toes wiggling.
Soooo....

....here we go! hatch date is the 29th.
 
YAY! Good luck with your hatch! What colors are the parents?

I have 6 eggs waiting to be set ( I am waiting until tomorrow HOPING to get another egg or two) from my Lav SG pen. I took out the "fake lav" and replaced her with a true lavender hen. So the roo is my Lav SG, one lav hen, and two black split hens.

How are everyone elses hatches going?
