Hatching Chicks ISA Brown Double Back Cross. Embracing New Beginnings

Embracing New Beginnings

This project started out by crossing a Rhode Island Red rooster to an ISA Brown hen. Then we used a brown colored rooster back to some ISA Brown hens and came up with a very nice white Rooster who is the father of these hatching chicks. Embracing the line, the mothers are Isa Brown hens but a new flock from which we had used up to the back cross. We are hoping to get some white hens to cross back to a white ISA Brown back cross rooster. Embracing our plan,  we are hoping to develop a true breeding white line of excellent brown egg layers by hatching lots of these double back chicks. We are hoping for birds that can be bred right on the farm that will lay competitively to ISA Brown or Rhode Island Red's with the kind temperament of an Isa Brown. Just like the chicks hatching in this video, we are hoping to be embracing new beginnings.
