New Chicks

[Miss Lydia]

Well got a big surprise these last 2 to hatch turned out to be OEGB lol
Suppose to be Chocolate Orps. she sent me 2 OEGB eggs but according to what was written on the eggs they were clear so I tossed them after 2 weeks. These eggs looked nothing like the tiny OEGB eggs my hens lay either.

I don't think so since all she has in Old English are bantams. But it's okay I love the OEGB's and I'll get my LF with the Salmon Faverolle I ordered.

Well, something seemed to have crossed the road there!

A few years ago my best broody hatched out a mystery chick that looked nothing like anything in the flock. Grew into a beautiful rooster. So one day I went down to our tenants that lived across the road from us (our then property had a road running through it) and saw a hen that was exactly the same colour etc as my mystery rooster? I asked the tenants about her and they said she was hatched out in their flock and pointed out the rooster to me. So my hen DEFINITELY crossed the road and we know why…

Looking at the chick produced and you say "why"?

Gotta love it!
