    I think Frizzles would be great for people who can keep them solo, but chickens are brutal and anything odd looking and they just bully it incessantly.

    The Moonshiner's Leghorns

    I am turning the rest of my turkeys out to free range this weekend and I told my husband I am using the huge pen/coop they are in for my Red Neckers. He was like "okay." He understands my crazy mind and I am thankful for that. Even though his eyes glaze over when I try to explain the genetics...

    Maybe someday! Make that a goal for the future and let it drive you in your endeavors. When you set your mind and heart on something, you can achieve anything. 🙂

    I would love to share some of mine with you if I could. You could have some Red Neckers and Leghorns. lol

    Definitely hustle some OT while the extra hours are there. I worked 5 12s in a row the week before last because they offered surge pay (emergency staffing incentive) and I couldn't pass it up. I hate that I didn't get to pick up an OT shift tonight but I'm sick. Hopefully next week I can...

    For now, it's looking like a pullet. She is pea combed like the Brahma and I don't see any pink or redness to the comb.

    Does she have silkie ancestry? She is a cool looking bird!

    Not a fan of frizzles, just because any odd bird in my flock tends to get bullied. But the barred NN are awesome. 🤩

    I just googled Jubilee Orpington chicks and they appear wheaten based or wheaten/wild type split. Not partridge based. So those are out. Plus they also lay brown eggs. Dark Brown Leghorns are partridge based, I forgot about those. So Dark Brown Leghorn and 55 Flower Hen could work, right...

    What Mille Fleur patterned breeds have a Partridge base that are large fowl and not bantam? Jubilee Orphingtons? I know Mille Fleur d'Uccles are partridge based but you wouldn't want to outcross to bantam unless you absolutely had no other choice. My hatchery Speckled Sussex are wild type...

    Yes I was thinking about how to get a deeper mille fleur base color, and wild type (gold dw) with Brown Leghorns would not be it. If a person is starting out and looking for project birds to work on a Mille Fleur Leghorn project, obtaining a few 55 Flowery Hen birds to work with and buff or BTR...

    So the final hatch rate and count was 32/38 white leghorns hatched and 16/16 Red Neckers hatched. Final hatch rate is 90%. My husband took the White Leghorn chicks to his friend so the brooder is much less full now. lol The remaining white chicks are recessive white Red Neckers, (one white...
