craftyhunnypie Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 (edited) I stopped turning my frizzle pekin eggs tonight - so I'm expecting baby Spongebobs in the next few days, although egg number one is rocking around like it's gone mad. I'm actually hoping for at least one frizzle cockerel, to carry on the frizzle gene. It will be beautiful to get any frizzles - but I'll love whatever hatches. Do bantams tend to hatch early?

Janty Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I'm very I had a black and white frizzle pekin called Nigella who we lost last year. I'd love a couple of frizzle pekins. Maybe in a few years. Hope you get what you want. Let us know with piccies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Two chicks hatched this morning. They came out like little bullets! One at 8am & the other about 9am. There wasn't much hanging around after pipping. They are so tiny, cute & perfect. I can't tell if they are frizzle yet..I think one could be. One is like silvery white with a greystripe down its back, the other is jet black with a tiny dash of white. Funny as the parents are a red frizzle cockerel & the lavender mothers. One egg hasn't hatched as yet. The other 3 are due next week. I haven't named the 2 chicks as yet - trying to decide on unisex names. Oh & also been trying to take photos, but it is tricky to do under the red heat lamp without clonking my head or getting dud photos. I am so pleased to have healthy little chicks.
