What is it called??

[misshilton88]

Hey all I've just taken in a lovely white light Sussex hen with a baby chick.
Now the chick is crossed with a Peking cock....Ive looked everywhere but can't find much information on this sort of cross...at the moment the baby has white wings (black underneath) and a yellowish head and body!

Has anybody on here got much experience of this or can offer advice on cross breeds???


Also Ive got a dutch bantam raising a call ducking too - so many babies!!!!

Thanks for held and advice in advance

Hi Dani,
Don't know anything about this cross, but it sounds like a good meat cross.
Best,
Karen

Its a beautiful chick - its got the neck markings of the light sussex and black underneath its wings so it wil be intresting to see how it grows. The chick was a freebe as mum had only hatched it out a week ago and couldnt seperate them...il try and get some pics up of her. The guy who sold me the hen seemed to think the chick would be very small as both parents are bantems - he thinks wil be smaller than mum

If its smaller then mom it would be called a Mini-Bantam i believe, meaning its smaller then a bantam

I dont know what its called, but are you askin how to take care of a cross?
