The Moonshiner's Leghorns

[Miami Leghorn]

Not all are pictured but hatched black tailed reds, buffs, buff split mottled, black, cuckoo, blue cuckoo, Isabella, silver crele, and a few that I'm not certain about. Been hatching some odd balls from one pair that are showing DB. (Partridge)

Nice

So I forget if you had this question earlier, but which variey/color is your favorite you raise?

 

[The Moonshiner]

Anything with lavender.
Right now I'm working on lavender silver duckwing. Theyre the top of my list for now.

Ya been working on those for a few years now.
Should be an exciting time these hatches are my first chance at getting the complete correct pattern and correct leg colors. Still hatching birds with white shanks but hoping to be done with that and start next year with all good birds.
Just started putting eggs in the incubator for blue and blue cuckoo and then had a rooster from next pen hop in and screw that up. Now have to wait a few weeks to get back to those.

Welp, took me about 4-5 hours to read this thread, but it was worth it

I'm so appreciative of that.
Time is valuable and for you to give up that much of yours and actually get through this whole thread is super cool.
Glad you found it interesting enough to read it.

I absolutely love those breeding pens you built with the pallet scraps for pairs of hens. Such a great idea
