Paint Sizzles ~ I Hope !

Sizzle chicks are hatching ! Yesterday morning I checked under this frizzled white bantam cochin to discover the first egg of her clutch had hatched. A tiny still wet from the egg chick was under her, and she was very angry with me for disturbing her and the chick.

I am kind of excited about these chicks because they are the chicks from her breeding to my Paint Silkie rooster. The next few days will tell , will I have Paint Sizzles or not ?

  1. I will be anxious to see the results. I live in a state where every kind of fowl is having to be destroyed. The bird flu is spread throughout the state of Iowa.

    1. Sorry I did not reply Stella. She did hatch out chicks and another bantam hen stole them to raise up. They are now grown and laying eggs.
