Hello! I'm from Yakima... hoping to find some new chicken friends!
I have multiple chicken questions. Some size questions, and some color questions. Hoping someone can help!
#1--- on color
If i keep a lavender ameraucana with buff ameraucanas what colors would come of it?
I know they would be easter eggers, but would the colors be light? Or dark? Or is it unknown?
I like light colors, and dont want black
#2---- - i have a silkie/ ee who is very small compared to all the standard girls.
She has a crest, bearded, clean legs, blue legs, 5 toes, and is bantam size. Pea comb.
If i want more like her should i keep a silkie roo with her? Or like a bantam ameraucana? Bantam ee?
#3---- can a silkie roo or a bantam ameraucana breed with standard size chickens?
Thanks in advance! I have so much to learn!!!
#1 they would be considered ee and would probably look like blacks with leakage
#2 99% of silkies are bantams, there are LF silkies but they are extremely rare. She sounds like a mixed bird, not a pure silkie with clean legs. Silkies have a walnut comb. You would put a silkied bird with her to create more. Crossing out to a non silkied bird will give you non silkied offspring.
#3 yes, if they are really determined.
All the prices are about the same in the area.
I am a member of a co-op and pick up directly at the Purina Mill. I save $3-4 a bag on my feed.
