Hey what colour is she?
it looks like gray or Silver PartridgeHey what colour is she?
Anyone have any other helpful advice besides that they are cute? lolok guys I have some color questions. This winter I have hatched lots of eggs in preparation for having breeding pens in the late spring, so of course I have a few odd balls that I am not sure what to call them or do with them.
First, an 8 week old (pullet?) hatched from BBS or paint eggs (most likely BBS). she/he has leakage on the neck. Should I keep it for breeding purposes? I already have a pure white pen, and will be setting up a paint pen, a blue pen (maybe with splash), and a pure black pen.
next is 2 chicks that I originally thought were spash one is 8 weeks old and hatch from either paint or BBS eggs (most likely BBS). The other is 6 weeks old and came from a blue and black pairing I believe. Came from two different breeders. They are mostly black with white feathers on their wings, the older one is more pronounced.
the 8 week old
the 6 week old
Would these be best suited for any of my projects? maybe with a paint rooster over them?

more then likely this end up being a rooster, if there this much leakage at this age i wouldn't keep itAnyone have any other helpful advice besides that they are cute? lol

I am not an expert by any means, but I think I have heard/read in the past that people will breed black birds with their partridge birds to improve on the partridge, and work towards the partridge standard written by the APA, which makes sense. So I believe it would work.I am looking at the possibility of crossing a black roo with a red partridge hen. Would this work or be a fail?
