    I have created a breeding plan for my lavender and zombie flocks. I have included as much genetic info that I understand/know how to track using the chicken calculator. I am currently in the F1 phase.

    Indian Runner Duck identification Lavender White Spotted?

    I was told two of the ducks we just got are lavender and white spotted Indian runner ducks. I can’t find anything about that color/breed of runner duck, is there an other name for this color?

    Pop Quiz - Is this a pure Ameraucana?

    I thought we could have a little fun playing "guess the purebred...ness" err, "purity"? This pullet is Pearl, bred and hatched here from known stock. Is she a pure Ameraucana? You guess! Hone your skills, or if you don't feel like it, Pearl will accept simple flattery instead.

    Hi everyone, new here :) I have 3 lavender orpingtons, 10 weeks old. 1 I’m super confident is a roo. They’ve had a red comb since 2 weeks old. The other I’m confident is a pullet. She’s much daintier and smaller than the roo. The third one…. I don’t know. Later getting a smaller comb. It was...

    Lavender or Isabel Ameraucana?

    I know it is not the greatest pic, it's from my cell phone and was very cloudy out all day today. I just got this guy today, he is definitely an Ameraucana, he's got the pea comb and slate legs like my other Ameraucanas. What I'm needing to know is if he's Isabel or what? He is lavender with...

    Blue cream silkie genetics

    Hello! I have a chick that was most likely the result of breeding a blue cream (aka porcelain) to a lavender. The chick is black. Does anyone know what this chick is carrying? Would it be considered a lavender split? Or would it be a blue cream split - is that even a thing? I’m not sure how...

    Is it possible to get lavender offspring out of porcelain?

    Hello! I am wondering if it is possible to get lavender (self blue) silkies strictly from blue cream/porcelain breeding stock? From my understanding blue cream is a combination of the lavender gene over buff. So I guess I’m wondering if it’s possible to get chicks without the buff genes so they...

    So I purchased a dozen lavender orpington eggs last year from a local lady to add a new bloodline to my stock. When I hatched them I did not get lavender orpingtons, lol, I got these beauties instead! I know they are lavender and ameraucana or easter eggers (I would call them EE just to be sure)...

    Is there a name for lavender silver penciled?

    I'd love to breed some lavender silver penciled chickens with black heads (which will be barely noticeable with the lavender, but still.) and I want to know if there is a name for that color or is it just called lavender silver penciled (or in my case, lav. silver penciled with charcoal)? Thanks!
