Sia’s kids are 5 weeks old now! Parmesan’s and Pistachio are like two cute peas in a pod! Parmesan is just a slight darker blue. 😍

I use embroidery cards tied together with small zip ties to cage off eggs. I guess it depends on the kind of incubator you have what works best
I think this should be on HAL thread...but would like to see pic or how you made the dividers when u get a chance.

They grow up so fast don't they! They are precious!
 
I want to start trying to find this little guy a home... what color is this ???
Is it even a color or a mutation, LoL..
He isnt a pure silkie, not positive what all he is.. His daddy is Shaemus and im.pretty sure his mom is a white Satin mix...
Not 100% positive though...
I would like to call him some type of color, possibly...

Had one of the eggs from under a hen have the aircell on the side. I noticed when I stole them last weekend and put in the incubator. I didn't know if it would make it or have issues hatching. It hatched while we were out this afternoon. No problems apparently.
 
Just curious, have any of you ever hatched out chicks from a buff rooster over a black hen? I have these two colors and I was thinking they might be really cool fun color combinations but I don't know what the offspring would look like. Thanks!😊

Leaky black in the offspring.

I had in the past buff hens mated to black or blue roo. all the chicks were black/blue. buff is black based.
