Hello eveyone :) i purchased three bantam chicks a while ago and i am having a hard time sexing and identifying them. The seller said the were “yard bantam crosses”
Im hoping they are all pullets. They are about 5 or 6 weeks old i believe.
There is one that seems to be a barred bantam, one that...
I have a black Asian chicken who acts like a show bird and is super friendly she ain’t the prettiest but she’s adorable and hyper with big bot black eyes what will it look like crossed with a silkie?
Hi,
These two roosters are 11 months old. Got them from someone not very knowledgeable on chicken breeds.
Do you have any idea about what breed they might be? Especially the black one.
The black one looks like a Marans, but it has this silvery-yellow leakage and the one with white I suspect is a...
I have a Molted Black Cochin Frizzle Roo and thinking about breeding him with black and blue silkies. Good idea ? Bad Idea? And what do you think they will look like ? And info would be greatly appreciated!
I want to know if anyone has continuously crossed equal part chicken breeds. Like for example, a white Leghorn x Rhode island red cross with an buff orpington x barred rock, creating a 4 way cross. Then breeding that with another 4 way cross of different breeds. If anyone has pics that would be...
Bought this chicken a few months ago. It's around 6mths now. I know it came from a blue egg and it's part Ameraucana.. I've been trying to figure out the mix as I like the flat comb and the colors. It's a gd size so I'm thinking it might be mixed with brahma.
I only have 2 BTWJB and PCB Mix for now. Waiting for some more to hatch. I believe these two are a week or two old. The one in the second picture has a blackish/grey stripe on it and it Hatched first, the other one doesn't have a stripe. I believe the one without a stripe is a male, and other...
Wanted to know if anyone has bred silver duckwing bantam rooster and self blue hen together, what would they look like. Any pictures? Any help is appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!
Hi guys, I'm new to byc and i have a question. You see, i have a trio of gold blacklaced cochin bantams and i also have a buff cochin bantam. All of which are purebred and pure in colour. What would i get if i crossed the buff hen to the gold blacklaced roo? And would i be able to tell the...
I just had 3 chicks hatch out, 2 Dominique x Buff Orpington and 1 Dominque x Easter Egger. The Dominique is the father. One of the Buff Orpington cross chicks is more yellow in the face and has a rose comb, the other is less so, smaller and has a single comb. I can't tell what kind of comb the...
Yes I know the emoji is a swan. There's no goose!
Matilda Jane , my 3ish month old embden goose seems to be developing a big underbite and a slight crossbill. I didn't notice any deformity at all when I got her, but it seems to be getting worse.
Anyone else experience this? Is there a...
So at the time I just had one Silver Laced Wyandotte Rooster, and 5 different breeds of hens. So I decided to hatch one of each to see the crosses. They're all awesome but I just wanted to share with you this awesome, adorable cross with you guys. The mom is a Porcelain D'uccle. Neither has any...
Hi,
I have this 11 weeks rooster.
I'm thinking it's a silver laced / white columbian mix between a Cochin and a Wyandotte. I have other various mixes between different colors of cochins and that's why I suspect it's partially a cochin.
Or maybe Brahma and Wyandotte.
I'm not sure what kind of...
So I decided to see if my sliver laced wyandotte roo would successfully mate with my porcelain d'uccle hen. And it worked! I successfully hatched a chick. And it turned out SO cool. It has its moms mutton chops, feathered legs, and comb. But has its dads color, except opposite design. And it has...
Before I start: This is all under the assumption that what I think I know is true, that silver is a dominant sex-linked trait, and turns gold/red color white. Hopefully that is true.
I have a 12 week old pullet that is bred from an EE hen and a Lakenvelder rooster. All of her feathers are white...
I've got a brown Easter Egger from Hoover's Hatchery that lays blue eggs. My only roo is a Buff Orp. EE's eggs are fertile and I'm getting ready to start an incubator batch this week. I'd like to put some of her eggs in with the purebred BO eggs to get little easter egger chicks with a chance of...
A few weeks ago I hatched out some F2 Olive Eggers and some Golden Cuckoo Marans eggs that could have either been fertilized by my Barnevelder that I used to have, my Welsummer or potentially my young Swedish Flower Hen rooster. Most of those were hatched for other people but I kept one that I...
