I Like that plan! are you looking for more specifics to put in the pens? Like dark pullets with a certain roo? Lighter pullets with another kind of roo?
Hi Donna, well as much as I want to start using the Double Mating breeding system to improve the color and penciling in the Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks I have decided to hold off on that and try my best to improve the Type in this variety. I just don't want 10, 15, 20 years down the road thinking maybe if I would have crossed the two "Dick Horstman line & Danny Padgett line" into each other I may could have improved the Type in the Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks. I will never know until I try it so this Spring "more than likely the next few years at least" my breeding pens will be setup with a focus on trying to improve Type.
