    Silkie coloring prediction

    I have some new members to my flock. This year I decided I wanted to add some silkies which I have never had before. Long story short I'm curious to see what colors they will turn into. The reason I say this is because of the 3 one looks more white even slightly silver to the other two. While...

    What genetics do these chickens have?

    I had a pretty black and white roo with cream feathers on his hackles, and bred him against an orange hen with black Colombian markings. They are both Whiting True Blues.

    Question about Ameraucanas

    Does anyone know what would happen if I bred a silver Ameraucana hen with a brown red Ameraucana roo?

    So I am breeding Cochin bantams and I have four bantams. I have two buff hens and two red roosters. What would their offspring coloring be? I have their eggs in the incubator so I am just trying to get ready and predict their coloring.

    What colour is my Pekin/Cochin Bantam Rooster?

    Hi Everyone, I am curious what colour my 7 month old rooster could throw to his offspring. I was told he is a Cuckoo but I'm not sure if that means blue/black base colour or how it all works when it comes to Cuckoo/Barred in a Pekin. Thank you!

    What Rooster should I pair with my pure Lavender Orp hens?!

    I am looking to get into breeding healthy, ideal lavender Orpington chickens. I have two beautiful 6 month old pure Lavender hens, who hatched from both Lavender parents.

    Silver Partridge/Grey Silkie Genetics?

    Several months ago I purchased some hatching eggs from a breeder who assured me he had separate pens for his colors. I am only interested in paints (and blacks and whites). When they hatched, there was one who was definitely not paint and whose colors I have not seen before. I reached out to the...

    Silverrudds x Bielefelder and Legbar.. what color should chicks be?

    I have a blue Silverudds isbar rooster over cream legbar and bielefelder hens. I thought this would result in blue or black chicks that are sex linked, but some are coming out very similar in color to the hen color.. Is this a possibility?? I will add photos of the chicks in question
