    Thank you! I think so too. She may be a "cull" as a breeder, but she is definitely going to be a good egg producer. 🥰

    Culled 9 young cockerels today we didn’t need, so we could cut down on feed cost and free up space. Took a pic of this pretty little lady. She is from the first group of winter chicks and is pretty chill. She is one of the green legged pullets from the Buff x iBTR and will make a lovely layer. 🥰

    Since slate is just white with id+ (lack of the inhibitor of dermal melanin gene), Id inhibits the dermal melanin so a slate legged bird becomes white legged bird when a male is Id/Id or Id/id+, or a female is Id/-. According to the calculator, a male can be heterozygous for Id and still appear...

    That would be enough to give someone a heart attack until you figured out the green was just grass stains. 😆

    @Amer @The Moonshiner do you know why my Legbars and now my Crele project birds start out with a dusky greenish yellow leg color as chicks that always turns yellow as they get a few weeks old? The Legbar line never produced a green legged adult bird and I have had the line for like 10 years, so...

    He definitely has some color in his wing triangle! He is lovely! So at least split duckwing I would think. But I dont have any experience with this variety so he may be pure blue gold duckwing and just have poor color expression in the duckwing area. I like him and he will make pretty...

    Is it possible he is blue birchen (crow wing) with Er? I saw the crow wing and that is where my mind went, since he has so much color in his saddle and hackle?

    Here are the chicks from this week’s hatch. A very small group. None of the Buff x iBTR eggs hatched from this set and all looked like late quitters. Which could be something genetic caused by the other Buff rooster I put in to replace the Buff rooster that was throwing green legs. Its very...

    Can you get a close up picture of him from the side? So I can see if he is duckwing or crow wing. Either way is is gorgeous and I would be so excited to have him! Congratulations! 🥰🥰🥰

    Definitely holler at me it you have questions! I have been hatching chickens for around 20 years total. I have my method down to a science and get excellent hatch rates. 🥰
