    Anyone know about deathlayer chicks?

    We have 8 golden deathlayer chicks just hatched in incubator. 7 of them are a brownish red color and one is very blonde. Does the difference in color indicate sex? Also does anyone have any advice on raising this breed. Ive heard they are harder to raise?

    Isabel orpington and silkie/deathlayer

    A few days ago I picked up these two beauties. The lady told me they just came off heat, and they are an Isabel orpington and a silkie/Deathlayer. I think/hope they are female, but thought I would see if anyone here might have confirmation! :)

    Is There a Movement to Make Deathlayers APA??

    I have recently been reading up on Deathlayers and am wondering why they are not APA. It seems they are historic, is it just cause they are a new import? Is there a movement in the U.S. to add them to the APA list? I know the Cream Legbar is a few years out from being added but is there even a...

    DeathLayer head tumor?

    **UPDATE*** You all gave me a LOT to think about. I went out there and crouched and quietly observed my flock of 5. She did NOT go into the coop with the rest at dusk. She stayed in between my legs until the dominant left, then she pecked at food lightly. I think yall are right on two...
