Thank you! That's wonderful! Good luck :jumpy

Unfortunately I wasn't able to take many good photos this year. These are the ones I like the most. The right one decided that it was time to run away:rolleyes: "What are you looking at?" I really like this chick, the dark beak, the look and the grey back. (S)he also is the friendliest...

Good luck❤️ She's so cute!! My black Bantam Silkie went broody the same day! She is sitting on some Brahma eggs, it's her first time so I hope everything goes well, I have to force her to get up everyday to eat and drink... I ended up putting 35 eggs in the incubator last month, 30 were fertile...

I think today I will begin collecting eggs for my first 2023 incubation. Still don't know exactly how many eggs to set. I recently bought a new incubator that holds up to 70 eggs (I already tried it last year with quails and it's awesome), but I don't want to overdo, since feed and bedding...

Few years ago, the normal price was €2/egg and €3/egg if the breed/colour was really rare. I never bought hatching eggs though, I was going to buy some Bantam Faverolles eggs from a breeder in central Italy, but I later decided to focus only on one chicken breed. Unfortunately, with the higher...

Good luck!!:jumpy

I use Borotto incubators. I have two which keep 16 big eggs (chicken/goose/duck/turkey/guinea) or you can put 64 quail eggs (chinese quail ones are a bit too little and they may fall in the middle hole of the tray, I found the solution by putting a plastic bottle cap in the middle of the 4 quail...

Frizzle gene it's incompletely dominant: it means that it's showed even if there is only one copy of the gene, but if you have two copies of the gene it will be showed in a different way (in most of the genes it's like a double effect). The blue gene it's incompletely dominant: so one copy...

Here it's recognized in both large and bantam size. In the large size the male weights 2,2 - 2,5 kg. The female 1,6 - 1,8 kg

I'm not very expert on the other colors of Brahmas since I'm breeding only white columbian black and white columbian blue. So maybe (and probably) I'll say wrong things. As far I'm seeing in these photos, the gold partridge it's maybe too red/dark, it should be lighter in females, that color...

Thank you! Thank you! I really appreciate this tip, because I wanted to search for a good rooster at the national Championships, I did't even thought of that! Instead, I think I'll talk a lot with the other breeders and I'll try to find someone experienced willing to give me some of his/her...

Thank you! :D

Thank you! Unfortunately all the cockerels came out with that comb or worse, the parents' are very bad, too. Maybe I'll find a nice pullet or cockerel at some other show.

So... I have an update about the show, it was this weekend. This girl got a 96 (the maximum score is 97), she was champion in the Brahma breed and she also was champion along the standard sized chickens of all breeds. This girl got a 95, she was the champion in her colour category. This one...

My japaneses are outside in a small quail coop and run I built for them. The size is 1m x 2m (about 3,25 ft x 6,5 ft). The bottom of the run has no net and I can easily move everything so they always have fresh grass to graze. To avoid predators I always lock them in the little coop at night...

Thank you!:D

Thank you so much! I'll update to let you know how it went:D

In few weeks I'll take these three girls and a boy at my first show. These photos are from few days ago First pullet Second pullet Third pullet  Cockerel (He usually keeps his tail way better than this, especially today he kept it in a very good way, I regret that I didn't took a...

Congratulations!:D It's a really nice photo
