    Quest. about Jiffy III egg scale

    Hi.... I just became the proud owner of a Jiffy III egg scale by Kuhn. It's the blue one shaped like a chicken. It came with a nifty 2 oz weight for balancing the scale so it weighs correctly.

    A VERY Hearty Thank You!

    Question about passing on color patterns

    Okay... new to breeding here. Just a general question - when making a pattern for orpingtons, why is a patterned male over a solid hen used instead of a patterned hen under a solid male? For example Jubilee Orps.
