Thanks Dan, yes I wonder what I lost sometimes, because I lost all the yellow DF sp cocks chicks to his daughter and granddaughters and I lost nearly all his sons the white df sp to his daughters and half sisters and I was expecting great things from them this year.

I just pray next year will be much kinder to me.

See ya tomorrow.

Time for and Update on my breeding.

I am winding down but still have some nest going

 

I have a nest that had the white boy paired to his daughter a sky spangle they have 2 chicks. The white boy died at my hands several days ago.

Their chicks here, but only one is the other I fostered because it was smaller, the other chick is from another nest it is a lutino.

White df spangle / grey opaline spangle

3 chicks and 2 chicks from grey green spangle/ yellow df spangle ( the smallest chicks but one died yesterday and one the other died today, really disappointed because I really wanted those chicks more than any chicks that are here except for the the white boys. The cock belongs to Geoff and I only loaned him, He is out of my hen and his cock bird.
