I received fertilized eggs via USPS for the second time ever. Read a bunch about letting them set for 24 hours and did all that. I did read an article that stated candle before putting in to make sure that the air cells are attached. I ordered six they sent nine and nine are detached. I need...

We grind and make our chicken feed ration from local whole grains and buy out vitamins and minerals to make a healthy ration. When I say we I mean my husband that has patience to do all of that! I’m super cautious with my chicks when they hatch! I want to make sure they are getting exactly what...

The crele also! I didn’t even think about the comb color 🫢 Brahma it is lol

I’ve been watching rheee for weeks and still not sure what other breed these two are. For sure blue silkie dad. What would the hen be? Mom could be.. Crele Pacenendeca Light Brahma Partridge Cochin Sicilian Buttercup Blue Breasted brown leghorns Blue Cochins

That could explain the option of the Smokey Pearl x Cuckoo? But with both parents being barred I think I would get sex linked barred boys.

At the time of these blues and the white with black barring we didn’t have any of our cuckoos in there except our few cuckoo girls so therefore we had a lot of barred boys. This was one out of our first hatches in Sept! The only barring to my knowledge was the ghost barring in the Smokey pearls...

Very true! That’s what I don’t get. The only blue we have is our blue Cochins. Only barring is our cuckoo maran hens and Smokey pearls 🤯

This is the first boy that was born from the cookies and cream! This is him tonight. You can see the barring. His name is Brother. They are so timid that the other roosters somehow managed to break his leg. I got it amputated and he’s our garage buddy now.

It starts out looking like mottling yes. But then it turns into a very pretty tight barring.

Actually, with this specific Hatch with the blue rooster I have pictured here it was only him and another were the only two cochin cookies and cream crosses. I honestly started seeing it and just kind of ignored it while scratching my head the whole time. But now with the last Hatch we had with...

This particular bird that I posted here has almost a dark brown barring onhackle feather, and I do know that with the isa browns and our cookies and cream rooster, the white roosters, have a orange, almost dark brown leakage. I was leaning towards that one maybe but I just thought that maybe...

No, I definitely don’t think they have blue.

With this combination we got paint hens, some with black legs and darker eyes, black hens, white boys with ghost barring. The offspring has been consistent with barring and paints. I even did a silkie combo. Dad blue silkie and mom paint pearl.

Yes. Our cuckoo maran hens with our cookies and cream rooster 🤯

It makes my head want to explode! Lol

A pullet in the first pic and 2 pics of the same boy!

Want me to throw in a curveball 🤯 with the cookies and cream rooster I got sex linked blue Cochins. He was our first rooster we started to hatch eggs with. This is the first time I have ever hatched eggs and just didn’t for fun but in the meantime I really got into genetics and is probably one...

Also with the Smokey pearls they do have ghost baring which you see on his tail but with either of our roosters and a Smokey pearl they give paints.

At the time we had Isa Browns, Smokey pearls, cuckoo Marans, a black Australorp and blue Cochins. First two wouldn’t be because of them being dom white.

That’s what I’m trying to understand. He is lightly feathered on his legs. The only other option is our black mottled cookies and cream rooster with the Maran girls. I just don’t understand the white.
