What's the weirdest mix you've had?

Beautiful. For some reason she makes me think of a cool, crisp, sunny fall day. Please tell me that you named her Chrysanthemum.

Thanks. YeH she does doesn’t she? She doesn’t have a name, I just always call her “That Pullet”

This one was interesting to watch grow. The dad was my BL and the mom is a white rock. Apperenty she carried a hidden barring gene so what I got was a black sex link rooster.

Interesting thread. I might let mine hatch some eggs down the road. The possible mixes are...

Boy is SLW

Girls are--barred rock, RIR, faverolle, light brahma and I believe an EE.

I'm thinking all could be interesting.

Agreed!
These guys don't fit into my breeding program, but they're so sweet and interesting that I may just let that "accident" happen again.

I'm going to have to go home and snap a photo of my NN now that he's big and handsome this is his half brother - black Americauana and FBCM roo.
I think in the spring I am going to hatch and sell "Easter eggers". I have a lavender Americauna roo, an Isbar roo, a FBCM roo and lots of EE, americauna, marans and cream legbar pullets. The offspring will be bound to lay "rainbow eggs"

Where's the picture? I'm curious because I would really like a cross between my naked neck rooster and my Splash Maran hen. I've got a blue hen out of the mix but not one with a naked neck.

You need a naked neck with 2 genes for the trait. You can usually tell because those birds have totally naked necks with no bowties.

These were just hatched a week and a few days ago they are silver duckwing old english game bantams mixed with black australorp. They are super tiny and cute. The rooster is huge compared to my oegb hen. I'm curious to see how big they will be. Or if anyone had the same thing let me know.

We had some interesting mixes in the first birds that were given by our neighbors.
These girls were Dominique/Buff

This girl, Red, was Dominique/RIR

The rooster in the center left was Red's full brother. He was a beautiful bird, but he was MEAN so he went to freezer camp at 10 months. This is the only picture I have of him.

The birds below, we raised from our Doms and Dom Crosses using different roosters.
This was Gray Stuff. His father was a Leghorn cross (we don't know with what, but he had a few black feathers). His mother was a Dominique.

The girl in the next 3 pictures was a homemade New Hampshire/Dominique Black Sex Link. Unfortunately, she was killed in a barnyard accident at 4 months.

This is Hawk, the half sister of the chick above. She is New Hampshire/(Dominique/RIR, Red was her mother).

This is what she look like all grown up. She was a BIG pullet.

This boy was Black Cochin/ (Dominique/RIR, Red was his mother as well)

Here he is with his brothers. All the cockerels from the Black Cochin/Dominique, Dom cross mixes had really nasty temperaments.
