Okay I know that there are Buff Plymouth Rocks, but I would like to know how I could create a Buff Columbian Color in Plymouth Rocks.
I like the Buff Columbian color better than just buff.
I realize that it would be years to get them up to perfection. I would be dedicated to the project if...
Is there anyway to access this site on Facebook? I can see the page but it wants me to sign up again. It would make it easier for me if I could get here from there.
I think I'm going to set on Christmas Day for a mid- January hatch.

My hens have picked up a little and I think I can gather two or three dozen between now and Christmas to be able to set.
I wished there was...
I'm starting this thread for all the Calico, Aloha, and Mottled Naked Necks.
Back in 2012 my brother ordered Naked Necks from Cackle Hatchery.
He received the 15 pullets he ordered and 5 cockerels that were also ordered.
When he decided to sell out if his chickens I took over the Naked...

I started out with:
And:
And got only one pullet:

Since this is the genetics thread:
Is wheaten, red, mahogany and ginger all part of the wheaten coloration? Caused by the same gene?
Is there anyway to breed Duckwing out of wheaten?
What color would you call this?

I have a, what I think is a hen about 20 weeks old. (S)he sings like a hen, but looks like she has saddle feathers. Do hens get them sometimes?
Would you ( if you had her) use her for breeding. Reason I'm asking is that she is a very beautiful tricolored. Dark red, either black or a very...
First off I don't know how folks can get those great pictures of their chickens. I tried but this was the best I could get.
I am trying to get a new line of Naked Necks going for myself mostly.
So here is what I'm working with:

I am trying to create a White chicken that lays like a Leghorn, but I want it to lay brown eggs, and be big.
