Re: 2018 breeding pen... #2. TIME to guess....
Had to double check what the plan was...
Posted this Nov 19 , 2017
*****+*********+++++++++****+++++
Starting 2018 with way more birds then I should have because I just couldn't let go of some of them, not really a very sensible start, but apparently age doesn't equal wisdom....
I am going to do very purpose oriented breeding, the goal is one perfect Columbian cockerel for me and one perfect Blue Columbian cockerel for KB, to lock in some desirable genes, type and color for KB and type and comb and color for me.
For the Columbian, the plan is to breed Columbian male to Black hens.
For the Blue Columbian, the plan is to breed Blue Columbian male to Blue hens.
So Kathy and Jan, what are my chances I will get and what is the minimum number of birds I have to breed (no more then 30 :)
***********+++++***++++****************
Wait till you see the colours!!!
