Redwing Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Some of you may remember lwescott hatching some of the eggs from my Pekins last year - he hatched out a super lavender frizzle feathered cockerel Quigley who came back to live with me Well Quigley himself is now a dad at the grand old age of about seven months Three Quigley babies hatched overnight hopefully by the summer they will join the rest of my little Pekin flock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 Lavenders always hatch yellow and lavender, as the fluff vanishes and proper feathers come through those will all be lavender the mums are both lavender mottled so if any chicks are going to be mottled that wont show till later on as they gp through all the youngster feather changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
