Exhibiting & Promoting / It would be nice to see show photos in one place

Would it be possible to put show photos in one place?  I find it very helpful to look at show photos but find it difficult to go through the forum looking for pictures. I also saw a facebook post commenting on not enough photos of each color on our website. I know the photos are being updated and that is good. I think if there was an area on the forum with show photos in would be more anonymous. Just showing what is being shown not necessarily what the club is promoting as the best like in our website breed photos.

Breeding / Chick down color

« on: January 25, 2015, 10:00:14 AM »

I just hatched a dozen LF BBS chicks. So they are 1 day old. I was expecting to know which ones were black blue and splash but I have two that have brownish down mostly on the head? What color will that be and does the brown hue mean something in the adult? Also both parents were blue no other cock exposed to the pullet for five weeks.

Housing, Health & Hatching / How do I keep hatching eggs separate?

« on: January 20, 2015, 08:03:28 AM »

I have 3 different breedings  of eggs hatching hopefully Saturday. 19 eggs total candled. I read about putting them in mesh bags so chicks don't get mixed up. Would someone elaborate on what type of mesh bags to use & some precautions please. I will be around during hatching but don't want to chance chicks getting mixed up. I also have 2 still air incubators ready to put them in to dry off if I need it. But I'll need to divide them somehow also? Suggestions please.
