Saved one of our BB White Turkeys. Had a problematic crop blockage that took 3 days to get cleared. Turkey was still not feeling the greatest afterwards, so it may have went abit sour. But she's now perking up after some vitamins, & water.
The Blue Face/Oriental Cross laid this monster yesterday in front of me. She can't just lay one sized egg. She's given me large, jumbo, & this Colossal.She's a small hen, by the way, just a tad smaller then a Leghorn.
Will be placing a clutch of 9 eggs under my Broody Fibro Easter Egger Hen tomorrow. It's a test hatch for seeing who the dad's were.
The eggs are from these hens:
1, Blue Face Hatch(1 egg)
2, Red JungleFowl(3 eggs)
1, Marans/American Game X Heritage Plymouth Barred Rock(1 egg)
1, Japanese...
I've got 3 eggs from the JungleFowls that I'm gonna hatch. This is a test hatch to see if these came from the quad, or if they were mixed with someone else.
San Diego Zoo Red JungleFowl. They're a blend of different Red JungleFowl subspecies.
But may have been tampered with slightly by Cackle Hatchery. Suspecting some Standard Old English mixed in at least 1 generation.
