maryann Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Daisy my min silver appleyard has hatched i think about 8 eggs so far, difficult to tell all those little heads bobbing about in the nest but i have noticed one is pure yellow with not a single mark on all the others have the stripe going through the eyes anyone any ideas will take some photes over weekend when they come out of the nest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller30 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 It could just be a dogdy gene ive got a salmon pekin bantam chick that is nearly 3 weeks old and looks nothing like it should and i know it only came from a breeding group of salmon pekins as the were in pens that nothing could get in or out im hoping when it starts to feather up it might look like it is suppose too but at the mo its the wrong colour leanne.

AdamD Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Hmm, maybe some sort of recessive gene? Uh oh, a bit of science creeping in It could be that it's just the fluff and then it'll turn out like the others, but with so many, you're lucky one's a bit different, at least you can tell it apart! I'm sure it'll be fine, as long as there's nothing physically wrong with it and its perfectly healthy then there should be nothing to worry about, interesting though Look forward to seeing the photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
