I'm sure most everyone on here already knows a lot about keeping chickens, but last year I wrote an e-book on the subject (including photos and illustrations),...
Nate , it sounds like you have hatchery birds and most if not all i have seen from hatcherys are crossed to improve egg size Most Real Dominique don't lay a...
Thanks for the reply Billy, The more I hatch, the more black ones I get. I bought my two hens from a friend, been hatching Doms for ten years. He has a nice...
Nate Just look at the pic He looks to me to be a cross maybe with a Wyandotte, the way the spike goes down and how dark he is, showes to have only one gene...
Billy Wyandotte? Maybe. Yea, he is dark. His spike does go down. I have the APA Standard from the Dominique website. It did say that Red or yellow in any part...

Hi everyone, I have 19 heavy breed chickens (dominiques and buff orph). I have two roosters in with them now, but I want to make sure I have complete...
Our first batch of Dominiques consisted of 19 chickens, 2 roosters and 17 hens. That seemed to provide adequate fertility and protection for the hens....
Just a warning on isolating hens that have been with multiple roos. Hens will retain semen from any rooster it has been exposed to for several weeks. I...
Ah, that's right, I should have mentioned that. I've read that 3 weeks is the amount of time you should keep a hen away from a rooster that you don't want her...
