Ygerna Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I bought 6 hatching eggs from Ebay for 99p. They are a mixed, random selection of whatever had been laid the morning of posting. The seller says this '6 mixed hatching eggs from my orpingtons, silkies, marans, leghorns, wandottes, aracanas, rhode island red, brahama, and naked neck chickens..' I got a pale, pale blue one, two white, one small pale creamypinky colour, two pale beige and a brown one. So, any guesses on what might hatch, should it be a succesful attempt. edited to correct typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Here are my guesses: Pale Blue one - Araucana White ones - Leghorns Small pale - I'd guess to be an orpington/Brahma Pale beige - Silkies/Wyandottes/RIR/Naked necks Brown - Maran I think I'm reasonable confident of the pale blue one, the white ones and the brown one and the small one is most likely to be the heavier breed, (Orps and Brahmas), just because of the breed stuff I know. You got a real mix there,I hope some of them turn out to be female for you so you can keep them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ygerna Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 I'd love a silkie or two, and simply for freakish-ness a naked neck chicken too Thanks for your input. Thats pretty much what I had guessed at, but am not nearly confidant enough to guess out right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 No idea with the aggs apart from the blue and white ones whic I would say are as above but good luck! If we hatched a naked neck in this house it would go in the pot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
