Very Cute!

For y'all who are near Hampton, there's going to be a Poultry Swap on March 2 from 7 to 3 at the old Saddle Club on the road to Lake Warren. If it rains, it will be the following Saturday. The flyer advertises chickens, turkeys, guineas, pigeons and other small domestic animals like goats and rabbits. This is the first one and if it goes well, they are planning on doing it monthly.

I thought I would update on these crosses I told about a while back as they just started laying, mother a petite 2 or 3 lb LF leghorn/OEGB cross (I know, poor OEGB hen) and the father a huge 9 lb SL Wyandotte.


father


mother

The crosses are medium-sized, maybe 4 lbs. The rooster is lean and has a gamey stance like his mother. The three hens are more heavy bodied. They lay small eggs, slightly bigger than silkie eggs. Two have very pretty lightly laced black and white plumage, one is all black with a little bit of black lacing on her neck. She's the wildest of the bunch. All have their father's rose comb. The rooster has ghost barring on his tail. The roo and one of the pullets have yellow legs like their father, on of the white pullets has white spotted legs like her mother, and the black pullet has grayish green legs which came from who knows where. Funny how genetics work
