Chicken thread? Just started these today, whites are brown leghorn bred to a show quality buff orpington cock, greens are a side project that I can't describe well enough to do justice, brown are a mix of hatchery buff orpingtons bred under a show quality cock, show quality gold laced wyandotte hens under the same BO cock and a bunch of crossbred backyard layers bred to either a SQ white cornish cock or one of my cocks from my experimental pen. I don't normally hatch chicks this late hence so many crossbreds as I have all my pens consolidated for winter already, but I have this weird feeling that something is going to happen this winter and it wouldn't hurt to both have more chickens and to spread out some of the genetics of some of my more interesting/quality birds.
