Chicken deficient Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Some of you probably saw this coming, but... What colour Pekins do you have and which are your favourites? Photos most welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaroo2 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 2 Lavender, Melody & Myrtle which are 17 weeks old and just starting to develop their personalities. Can't figure out why they are called lavenders when they are obviously grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcountrygirl Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have Madonna (Madge to her friends) she is a golden partridge Pekin, I have Holly Shiftwell (dont ask) a Lavendar Pekin and yesterday I got Percy Proudfoot who is a very handsome Wheaten Pekin cockerel.

I've got 12 girls - 2 gold partridge, 3 mottled, 1 silver partridge, 2 red, 1 black, 1 frizzle blue, 1 lemon cuckoo and 1 columbian. I've also got 2 cockerels, 1 silver partridge and 1 white frizzle. Oh... and I've also got broodys sitting on 16 eggs... and another girl waiting for me to pick up another 8 eggs. Oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I'm not entirely sure what the colours of mine are called - apart from Queenie who I was told is a millefleur pekin - but I do love them dearly and will hopefully take a picture tomorow in the sunshine so you can see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Lemon cuckoo, gold partridge, silver partridge, lavender and black, all 100% as mad as a box of frogs!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsw Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 All of our Pekins are gold partridge pekins. At the moment we have three girls and two boys (father and son, which amazingly don't fight at all). No one has posted any pictures in this thread yet, so here are the four boys we originally hatched in 2009 (Licquorish is the frizzle father who we kept to breed, the others went to new homes). and here are some of the others we hatched that year.

atsw Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Oh how strange it worked but not completely half the photo is missing.Sorry about all this. Just trying to get it to work properly. The picture is a little big for the forum, so it got chopped off. In photobucket, find the picture thumbnail, click on it to select the picture. Find the "Edit" button just above the picture, press it. Look for the "resize" button above the picture, press it. Set the width as 480, the height will change automatically. Save the change by pressing the "Apply" button. Replace the original if prompted. That should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken deficient Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yep, Donald is definitely a stud muffin already - you'll have to post more pics as he gets his adult plumage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 My first pekins were Mimi - lavender, Ping - mille fleur and Lulu - mottled. Sadly we lost Mimi and Ping, but Lulu was given eggs to sit on so now we have Lulu the mottled, Mo the lemon cuckoo and Jess the buff. They are lovely little characters!
