Welsummer broody * PLEASE HELP

[mmulcare89]

I went & checked on mom & babies last night. I decided to remove the questionable chick because it was then 100% obvious that the chick was gone. They are all doing well. Does anyone know what breed the chicks would be considered with our Rhode Island Red rooster fertilizing the Welsummer hen eggs?

no breed.. just a mutt chicken! lol...a nice mix though! Some start up "breeds" catch on, like Easter Eggers, a general blanket term for crossing a purebred with an Ameraucana. The result is a vary of color patterns, and a variance of egg colors from browns to pinks to shades of greens and blues. If you cross an Ameraucana with a dark brown egg layer like your welsummer, maran or pendenesca (sp), you get the neatest color olive eggs!
