What are your breeding plans for next year?

[Chikyboy]

What are your breeding plans for next year? I'm not doing anything big, just gonna breed a partridge bantam cochin roo to a black bantam cochin hen, a black het partridge hen, and maybe to some other varieties of bantam cochins if I can get any, and possibly to a RIR hen and a white leggie.

My breeding plans for next year are simply to hatch as many chicks as I can accommodate out of my silkied Cochins and cull hard for the very best of their offspring. I'd also like to hatch some of my naked neck bantam's eggs just for fun and to hopefully add another naked neck hen or two to my mixed flock, but that's not as high of a priority to me as the silkied Cochins.

Several sexlink pens, hopefully some shipped eggs and reorganizing everyone.

Finally found a place to donate extra males too, so I'm going to learn how to vent sex so I can sell pullets way earlier

Hoping to hatch a few mixes next year, maybe my Delaware will cooperate and begin laying again. I'd also love to get some Bielefelder eggs from @AmeraucanaHank!

Yay!

If we're including shipped eggs in breeding plans for next year, then I'll also hopefully be adding silkied Chocolate Cochins to my flock via hatching eggs I ordered for next spring.

I am hoping to add a few silkies, bantam salmon faverolles, white amerucanas, and mille fleur d'uccle!

And sale a few mean and grumpy hens.

Those would be beautiful!

Cool! I want some d'uccles and silkies too.

I know, I'm so excited for them! I got smooth Chocolate Cochin bantams this year and I've always liked the color, but they're so much more beautiful in person, such a lovely, deep brown with green and purple sheen that makes them look jeweled in the sunlight.
