Actually, it was the leakage in the Mottled Orps that was the problem. The Jubilees are already black white and mahogany. The red affected the mottled orps as it was nearly impossible to get rid of the red gene. What Jeremy was talking about was using it to benefit the Jubilee gene pool or...

Neither rooster will give you Jubilee chicks, so it depends on what you wanted the results to be as to which one to use. Actually nothing will give you jubilee chicks except a jubilee rooster. If you wanted to create a pure jubilee line by using the red you might be able to get there after...

English Orps are poor layers in general unlike their American counter parts. They are seasonal layers in England and are primarily used for exhibition over there. In the USA the American Buff Orpingtons are one of our best layers. English Orpingtons are very finicky layers as well as being...

Pretty much impossible till they mature as far as quality goes

Cute, and they change so much every day .

I am not sure how to create a barred bird, I believe you would have to start with a barred bird then add the color you would like to create.

Good luck.

Yes, that is correct, creles can not produce that variety of color, I believe there must be something else in the mix. Also in order to produce solid males the rooster would either have to be solid, or the rooster could be single barred over a solid hen. But a double barred rooster will...

Although I do not know what is behind these chicks they look more like what you might get from two single barred first generation creles. It appears that you have a double barred male, single barred male, single barred pullet and solid pulled of the correct color for second generation chicks...

I can give a little information on the Crele Orpington color. First a true crele is a cross of Cuckoo over Partridge. There is no other combination that will give you crele. A lot of people think Cuckoo over Buff will do it but it will not. Some people will put cuckoo over any other color...

I do

Hey, nice, good luck!

Black will be black, could have a little white on chest/sides of face, blue will be blue, chocolate will be chocolate, Mauve will be tan, and cuckoo will have a white dot on the top of it's head Good luck!

I think boy

Normal morning poop

There are a lot of pros and cons on the Marek's vaccine. Unfortunately if your birds are on the ground they have been exposed. Some breeders bred for resistance which is a good idea but so is vaccinating. Some birds are naturally immune, and some are more susceptible than others like Silkies...

HI there, I am really sorry to hear about the issues with your birds. Upper respiratory is one of the most common health ( and life threatening) issues with poultry. Chickens have a very small trachea (windpipe) which makes an upper respiratory more life threatening if not treated right away...

Cute . The last one looks like a girl as well. Quite the little chunks!

Hey, I would love to see pics!
