New white chick
Courtney Galle:
I ordered some chicks from Paul 6 weeks back and I got this surprise white chick. Since I got such a great picture today I thought I'd share. Must have had a rare moment when the 20+ chicks paused for the picture. :)
Don:
It is an unusual moment when they stop at that age.
Is this the recessive white out of Blue that Paul mentioned this year?
Looks like there may be a new line of whites coming out of Texas.
Courtney Galle:
I believe they are from a pair of splash but I could be wrong and I don't know if those splash are from the blues he may have been talking about.
I wasn't intending to venture into whites so I haven't a clue how that particular recessive gene travels/works.
Cesar “CJ”:
A lady in Arizona, got a few whites from her black and blue pen. Shes going to start a white flock.
I'm giving her my only white chick I was able to hatch from my white breeding pair(now deceased). I'm thinking its a cockerel. Hopefully she has enough to start a flock and spread them in Arizona
Courtney Galle:
This one is looking like a pullet but it's to early for me to "guess" very well. I always feel like it's a guess. I've got one black chick that looks really promising and I still can't tell if it's a pullet or cockerel. Very raised comb but not very red, so I'm waiting.
I'm planing to pick a few of my best it's and go to the meet at the Texas state fair in October. They won't be prize winners or anything but I figure you gotta start somewhere so why not just jump in.
