What’s your favorite cross in your flock?

[Annabee093]

I’m curious what everyone’s favorite crosses are currently I have two young roosters a buff Orpington and a Whiting true blue. For hens I have buff Cochins, black australorp, sl Wyandotte, whiting true blues, Rhode Island reds, blue laced Wyandotte and EAster Eggers. I have never incubated eggs before but recently was given one for my birthday so I’m going to experiment.

My favorite crossbred hen was a leghorn crossed with a wyandotte roo.

I really like my black ameraucana x cuckoo maran cockerel. I don’t have any colorful mixed breeds.

I don’t have leghorns yet but would like to get some one day when I phase out some of my other breeds. Do you have a picture ?

Omg I love this one!!!! I don’t know anything about genetics and traits so will have to do some research to see what I can get with what I have. I love my EEs and my whiting true blues because the different colors (my roo being my favorite variety)

Thank you!
Easter eggers genetics are random, you could get pretty much anything with Easter eggers and I’m not sure about whiting true blues genetics but I’d assume they are like EEs.

From what I was told I believe so. Mixed with leghorn. I love them so far but they are a little town flighty and skittish but that’s okay. They have adapted well.

I do, will have to get it in a bit.

I had one of those crosses, the only hatched bird was a rooster, he had a very gamy body. Looked nice

My favorite cross has been my Colucmian Wyandotte Light Light Brahma mix rooster over my Welsummer hens. Made the perfect chicks that are feather sexed and have some beautiful colors on them. Roosters don't full feather till 7-8 weeks, hens are fully feathered at 6. They're big birds
