crossbreed

I wanted to show everyone pictures of my Lemon Swiss who is a cross from a Barred Rock Rooster and a Leghorn hen. she mostly looks like a leghorn but has some black patches. In my research I discovered they call them California whites sometimes.

Hi all! I currently have 7 chickens in total, Cochin rooster, Rhode Island Red rooster + his mate, and the 4 others I think might be a silkie/EE mix? Or Maran/Silkie mix? Not too sure and would love to know your guesses? Also if you all agree that I think I might have 2 roosters out of the cross...

Not seeing this pop up on the Already Asked thing, and I'm not getting answers from people I follow, so here I am. My Leilei is a 5mo SilkiexBarbu Cross who I've confirmed laid 2 first eggs as opposed to 1. How I confirmed was I saw her poop and I thought her vent had prolapsed! I quickly...

hey all! i’m looking at getting a silkie rooster for my silkie girls and i found a lady that has one around the same age however he has white skin. i was just wondering if this is a genetic thing or if it’s possibly crossed with some other breed. the lady says it’s unlikely that it’s a cross...

Hi everyone, Here are two beautiful 12-week-ish old girls that I got from Metzer. I ordered a Welsh Harlequin and a Silver Appleyard. The feather patterns are spot on, but funnily enough their bills are BOTH the “wrong” color! Every picture I see shows Appleyards with yellow/orange bills, and...

Hello! I am new here, not new to chickens (and an aviary with many other types of birds). I have a very interesting question. I have tried to research and cannot find anything. I have a solo turkey hen in the aviary and a ring-neck pheasant pair. The male pheasant has been "mating" with my...

I have a three year old mallard hen that proved multiple times she can sit and brood for a while, multiple times. This was before I purchased my new blue fawn call drake, I was considering letting my hen go broody on live eggs, thus breeding the two. Not completely sure I want to do this yet...

Hello! I have a lovely 12ish week old pullet, Sophie, that I got about 6 weeks ago. She is a Delaware x White Leghorn from a gal who wanted to see what that cross would be like. Sophie has 3 brothers from the same mom and dad and I recently was talking to the girl I got her from and she's...

This is my 12 year old springer spaniel with my 4 month old bull terrier cross (shar-pei X Staffordshire bull terrier X English bull terrier)

This is Albert.

I was wondering if this could actually happen. My young rooster feels my guinea hen is ready to breed and has proceeded to try to mount her multiple times now but he’s so small compared to her that I have a feeling it will never be successful. I tried looking online to see if anyone has had such...

So i have this chick 6 weeks old and As a week old chick it was yellow with a grey line on its head. I thought it would be a Delaware but it has alittle brown and grey on it. What breed is it?

Hi everyone, I'm new here btw!!! Does anyone have any photos of Shamo crosses (preferably not crossed with another game bird - but another type of soft feather breed) Myself and a friend are about to hatch out several cross bred Shamos (in fact a silkie x Shamo and a LaFleche x Shamo have...

Hi friend's, I am having one RIR Cockerel & Aseel pullet, would like to know is there any possibility to get pure RIR if I crossbreed both. Thanks Elvis.

This is a crossbreed project inspired by the Delaware breed. The Delaware were created from white sports that resulted from mating a Barred Rock rooster to a New Hampshire hen. I crossed my Barred Rock roo with Dixie Rainbow, which look similar to New Hampshire but instead of 5 to 6 pounds...

Hi I am new to this forum and maybe I am not posting at the right place so let me know please. I am from canada and I am mating my pavlovskaya rooster on my barred rock hen and I want to know more about the genetic of the offsprings. I know they should have the comb of the pav roo but other than...

Hello! My favorite hen Rosie (Easter Egger; profile pic) has 8 of her eggs in the incubator, all of which are viable as of today's candling! 6 days before we started collecting her eggs (and prior to that), she was in contact with an Easter Egger rooster and two Lakenvelder roosters. The...

Hi all :) It was suggested that I post in here when August is 2 months old. But I was curious to see what others ideas of the result could be. Today August is 32 days old. The yellow hatch-mates are already fully feathered. August seems to be about a week or so behind them in development, but...

Hello I just got quacky two months ago from a small ranch owner and they pretty much have a variety of waterfowl,to be exact just chinese geese,what it seems to be khaki campbells,pekins,runners and a couple wild ducks,I got it as a duckling so at first I had no idea from time to time it would...
