If I wanted to get wheaten into a breed, what would be the best colour to cross with? Would wheaten hens or cocks work best? Generally, what is the most efficient way to do this?
There is an Ohiki group on facebook and a group for the official club being formed. People are still breeding them, and new people, such as myself, come along often enough. I just got my first pair earlier this January.
Does anyone have pictures of the Niederrheiners they got from Murray? I am very interested to see the quality of them. I wonder where they got their stock from...
I am a fan of cuckoo. I want to know all the possible combinations of cuckoo that exist, or might be possible.
The ones I know of:
Black cuckoo
Red cuckoo
Isabella cuckoo
Lavender/Self Blue cuckoo
Chocolate cuckoo
Silver Columbian cuckoo
Candy Corn (gold laced x black cuckoo) I know it doesn't...
All I know is Cochins can be sexed by feathers every time, and I tried it on my Bresse chicks and was 100% accurate. I found the picture I used. I guess this isn't feather sexing, development sexing I suppose?
All pullets. There is a drawn picture online of feather sexing someone made for cochins. It is 100% accurate for Bresse too. You can sex Bresse on hatch day by feather sexing.
