What's wrong with their feathers?

[BonneTerreChick]

LBKS, I am not sure where she is with this project. It can be pretty rough sometimes, as some of these birds just drop dead for no apparent reason(probably genetic) so people's numbers and projects change. Anyway, what I was going to say is that ChooksChick is in Lawrence Kansas and she had birds with the project the last time I knew.

Thanks for the information, BonneTerreChick - I'll see if I can get a hold of ChooksChick. With any luck this project is still going - it'd be a shame for such neat chickens to disappear.

Maybe everyone that is still working on them can post what they are working on. I have had them more than a year. Have yet to have 1 death to known or unknown causes. My only issues have been some red bleed on some splash and blue roo's & so many cockerel's... Splash is the color I am working towards but I am over run with blue and black silkied. Only kept the best roo of last years hatches from the blue eggs and he is blue as are all but 2 of my hens. So I hatch mostly blue & black, a few splash. My next coop of these will have splash roo's so more splash on the way.

I need a silkied roo for the only black hen I kept from a hatch of eggs I got from ChooksChicks last year. She is not working towards the right color for me and recommended that I ask around for a roo/cockerel. I sold all the blue chicks, all in this hatch were not silkied. This hen was slow to mature and had a lot of birchen type about the neck until molt, now is mostly black with bluegreen sheen. I really thought it was a gentle roo until the eggs showed up

.
Advice is appreciated

PM me you can help me out. Sharon
